Are we really restricted to the 8 skills allowable on our hotbar? My mage has the Fire tree maxed out, and got basic skills from Ice and lightning, along with barrier. I've also been speccing into KE. Unfortunately, with only 8 slots, I can't have any more on the hotbar, but are really not able to use anymore?

So if you have a schematic that gives 10 Cloth utilities, and one that gives 10 Cloth offense, then with a tier 1 item, you could get +10 Magic in the first, increasing your attack by 5% and barrier damage by 5%, or you could just get +10% to one or the other with the second.
I have confused myself about the ability upgrades that are now available.
I have added all the DLCs, and now when a character gains a level, those abilities with upgrades have two upgrades showing, and they are toggled. While there are two choices, you can only upgrade an ability once.
When you select an upgrade, do you get both choices? Or do you have to select one, and forever lose the other?
If you get both, are they both active at the same time, or do you need to use the 'Toggle' to select one before going out into exploration?
It would be helpful if Bioware would at least make a html player guide, or an epub one they could update easily.
