After around level 3 it get's a little repetitive. The skills and effects one gets are pretty cool but for example the mine felt way less useful than the cyclone. It would be maybe nice to be able to pick the first skill.
Completely agree. More day to day variance is a major goal for 0.3.X, as is rebalancing the abilities.
Allowing you to select your first Ability is a great idea, very likely you will see that in the future.
