Feral Combat Pool Power Idea

Wouldn't it make more sense as a melee set for Scrappers, Tankers, Stalkers and Brutes, instead of a power pool?
As a power pool, people would be combining it with Claws (or Dual Blades or Fiery Melee or whatever) rather than replacing those sets with a more bestial fighting style.
Ah, but some beastials might have other abilities too. Such as an animalistic fire elemental

I could be down for this. Needs more clarification as to what the powers do though. As in, don't overlap other powers and don't upset pool power balance.
Using other pools as a template, this resembles Fighting, which would be ATK-ATK-TOG-TOG; However "Roar" sounds like "Invoke Panic" from Intimidation, which was mapped out differently.
I don't think you're going to get that combo of powers in a power pool without some kind of tradeoff.
Bite - Moderate ST damage, chance for DoT (Bleeding), Moderate recharge, 5 endurance
Feral Conditioning - Toggle, moderate jump, minor S/L resistance, and runspeed increase (Slightly better than ninja run plus resistance)
Bestial Rage - (Thanks to demon summoning) A full-on SuperSpeed/SuperJump hybrid power with quadruped animation. New travel power anyone? 
Though, our bipedal heroes would look RIDICULOUS using it...
Roar - PBAoE Knockdown, 6 foot radius, 12 endurance
That's what I'd do to make it look more tantalizing.

Well done. |

Something like this would be ideal for a feral stance ala CO. A toggle (perhaps costume option) which affects just your movement and rest appearance.

I've had this idea about a pool power set you get like other sets @ level 6. For animal-related toons who think that Claws are too long and annoying, or anyone who wants to really unleash their feral side. This is only a suggestion; with the following powers in the set (no particular order in which they are achieved):
Bite (similar to the power belonging to the Snakes)
Claw Rake (similar to the power belonging to the Snakes)
Bestial Rage
Roar
Those who appeal to this idea, do tell. And NCsoft, you might want to make a note of this...
