Tree identity
The tree develops a direct fighting rhythm where weapon choices and attack opportunities matter. Interruption and control can still decide whether that rhythm is safe to maintain.
In 3.3.5a this is a point tree, not the formal specialization system of later expansions. Points can be shared across the class's three trees.
