==Skill Design==
<blockquote>''Cleave with the spear was extremely effective. It bumped up my damage enough that I began to one-hit kill virtually all of the regular monsters, and that was very fun. I’d usually run up to groups of 4-8 monsters, let them crowd in close, and then cut the whole damn bunch of them down with a single swing. Watching their bodies fly back like eviscerated ragdolls, was, to quote Jay Wilson, “Awesome!” It was all that “make the player feel godly” stuff they’re always talking about during the design panels, come to life. I was putty in their hands, and felt slightly dirty at being so easily manipulated.</blockquote>
Skill tiers were removed for the [[July 2011 Press Event]], and Cleave became a level 5 skill, but was soon changed to level 4. The skill system was once again overhauled for the [[Beta Patch 13]], and Cleave was classified as a Primary skill and moved to level 3.
