Happy I found this thread. We need skill trees period. every good MMO has one. Wow, Everquest 2, swtor, blade and soul,lol. It works and anyone who says it doesn't is lying to themselves, don't know whaT there talking about or don't like change. I'm not saying it has to be just like a skill tree or a trait tree, call it whatever the heck you like lol. For those who say it's too late, thats not true... Everquest 2 got it introduced to the game in an expansion, it also helped the developers later on in the games life.
