Imbuements is very much a niche area, but it fills a hole that was spotted on these very forums. It's not for every player or character type, but some imbuements - such as the ability to imbue your DF Scout's arrows or Knight's sword with Penetrating Attack, giving their mundane weapons armor divisors - can be useful even in higher-powered games, letting them keep up with the Wizard/Psion.
