Skill DesignEdit

An interesting little bonus, one that would be kicking in all the time during the game. This one should actually be more useful in multiplayer games, since Health Globes would drop more often and be picked up more often. Watch some of the gameplay footage released this year, and see if you ever count 7 seconds between health globe drops?

If you specialize in harnessing Health Globes, then maxing out Stability Control and Intensify seems like a good idea.
