Tree identity

The path gives weight to the choice of attack rather than constant motion alone. Rage, positioning and the changing condition of the target influence the useful moment to commit.

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.
