For those who don't know, all skills [except Perk category (Yellow)] have a common bonus:
- Adrenaline Point gain (1%-3%), for Combat category (Red).
- Stamina Regeneration in combat (0.5s-1.5s), for Sign category (Blue).
- Potion duration time and Bomb damage gain (5%-15%), for Alchemy category (Green).
They are fairly good in vanilla Next Gen version.
But they become over powerful when using some skill mod, like (All) Perks Always Active; or Restore Original Skill; or Slots Slots Slots.
