2h Sword Perk - The Iron Reaver - Whilst wielding a 2h Sword, an unblocked attack on a Light armoured lesser enemy will slice them in half.
Stealth Perk - Bleed Out - Upon a Critical hit that does not kill the target, they will begin to bleed out at an alarming rate.
2h Hammer Perk - The Brutalizer - An unblocked attack against any target will result in instant crippling of the limb, any blocked attacks will break the weapon/shield used to block.
Archery Perk - Double Up - Allows you to fire 2 arrows at once, in addition if both arrows hit the target they will be knocked off their feet.
Spear Perk - The Impaler - An unblocked attack with a spear type weapon will Impale any targets hit, reducing their movement capabilities. "Yes I want to be able to Spear through 3 Bandits in one attack and leave my spear in them"
I also feel that certain perks (i.e. if The Brutalizer was a real perk) should grant your character a title that would be spread through word of mouth through NPCs.
For example, an travelling merchant witnesses you Explode the head of a highwayman with a 2h hammer, he thanks you and then moves in his own time to a tavern, tells the tale and spreads like that.
It would be a great perk system that would allow you to perform certain cool actions in combat that could gain you an alias if witnessed in a heroic/diabolical manner.
You could also gain alias' for being a Drinking Champion, A Notorious Pickpocket/Thief (of course this is an infamous title, much like the Gray Fox), Ranks in a Guild.
It would allow you to gain respect/notority with factions, allow you to be notified by townsfolk of quests, to actually be addressed as a person instead of this mute person running around town.
Basically, I want to be able to earn titles in game from my actions.
