Practical use for climbing skill

[Warlander 2,730]

Currently climbing have very low (or even not existent) effects on character, here is a suggestion to make it more useful:

Make max slope we can stand on, regain stamina and not fall down when standing on it or coming up depend on climbing skill, following rule "1 more slope every 5 skill" or something similar (so up to about 44 slope at 100 skill, 34 slope at 50) - I think this rule seems reasonable as it is rather hard to get to 50+ climbing.

Even just reduced stamina usage or faster 'walk' speed while climbing would be nice.

*glances sideways at his fifty plus climbing*

Yeah it needs more uses.

grind a more useable skill is the only thing that comes to mind for me

Do you have any data to back up your claim that climbing skill has little to no effect on climbing ability/stamina use/whatever?

 

Not disagreeing with you but I'd like to see a comparison done.

+1 At the very least it should increase body strength and mind logic.
