Oh my god, finally, a answer
Sorry for this late post
(a) I have not found a better Translation, so far. Should not be changed.
(b) Perhaps "Durchschlagen" would work ( He strikes so hard that he simply cleaves the opponent and strikes another one) but it is not really great. I have no problem if we simply do not change it.
(c) I think you translated it great like it currently is, "Umgehen" is better than "Schleichen" IMO.
(d) +1
(e) +1
(f) How do you get this condition? Can't decide so far.
(g) +1
(h) +1
(i) +1
(j) "Betäubt" is probably better than "Betrunken" for Intoxicated, the word Intoxicated sounds more extreme than "Betrunken" IMO
(k) "Benommen" is probably better than "Betäubt" for Dazed, the word Dazed sounds softer than "Betäubt" IMO
Hope it helps
And hello cngunner, thanks for contributing, I have not enough time to translate on my own (as Samuel) but would also be glad to help a bit on improving the translations.
Edit: Could you post in this thread on which file you are currently working? You don't have to, but I would really like this, if possible. And it would possibly prevent others from double Translations

b) What about "Durchschlagskraft"?
f) It's the famous RoLS that gives this Regeneration.
j) You are right: "Betäubt" is better then "Betäubung"
k) You are right: "Benommen" is better then "Benommenheit"
You did not give feedback about (l) and (m), but IMO they are very clear.

Yeah, sorry have forgotten l and m but they really are clear
f) Regeneration der Schatten sounds better IMO, but I wonder if Ring of lesser Shadow really means that the regeneration is given by the Shadow, or that the regeneration is given by the fact that the Ring "lessers the Shadow"
b) Perhaps, but I would assume a skill named "Durchschlagskraft" to increase my damage, not to hit another enemy.
This word is really difficult to translate

f) So we will leave "Regeneration der Schatten" for now.
b) So we will leave it untranslated "Cleave" for now.

I think the issue with Cleave is that it really means to split something. i.e. you hit the mob so hard it splits in half. So the meaning of the name doesn't make much sense when used in the context of what the skill does. (+3 AP on every kill).
Any thoughts on a better name for a skill that gives you +3 AP on a kill?

How about Adrenaline Rush? (I probably spelled that wrong, sorry)
Because you are in battle you get a lil more pumped as the battle goes on alowing you to fight harder

Or maybe something like blood rage or berserk as you smell/see the blood of the dead corpse and begin to hit faster and more often

How about Free Hit, which is what +3AP really is with most weapons. Or Extra Hit. Or Restore Hit. Or Free Attack, Extra Attack or Restore Attack. Perhaps Restore Attack is the truest description of the effect of +3AP.
