It’s no problem of the half-elf tree. The enhancements of the tree are wonderful. The problem is the mechanic of the new system. The “points spent in the tree” thing kills the racial trees. It’s suicidal now invest in racial enhancements. All races have this problem. Too their shiny new iconics.
I don’t see other solution that to change the base of the new system and devs don’t seem to want do it…
But oh yes, the dilettante chain is prohibitive now.
