Running out of epics

I'm concerned about my Kan Po-- in the future, if he gets promoted or reaches level 75 and 95, he'll be forced to train Repel Boarders and Flanking. He has Riposte 3, Relentless 2, and Blade Storm 2. Could some of our companions get a few more epic options? Like, could you add First Strike and Second Chance to his list? I don't want him turning out like Sarah Steele.

OR

you could make Repel Boarders 3 and Flanking 3 not activate while hidden? That'd be convenient for people who like using Sarah.

When it comes to epics, I personally prefer to have one of each. I find I get the best return for that.

I start out with the ones that give me an attack "just because": flanking, repel boarders, first strike, etc.

I follow that up with attacks because they hit me: vengence strike and the like.

I follow that up with attacks because they missed me: reposte.

All the rest I add in until they are all covered, before I start doing two of anything.

I have the same problem with my Sarah I hate it when she is hidden and she does Repel Boarders.

And I really like my Kan Po and I don't want him to be using his Walk in Shadows on a Repel Boarders or Flanking in the future.

I hope to see you In the spiral-

Without these auto talents; there is no way to "pop" a hidden companion out of hide.
I do agree that Kan Po should be able to gain First Strike and Second Chance. ( As well as Kiesuki Yagi. )
It would be nice if Lucy Sterling got to train Shadow Dance and Walk in Shadows.

I just don't have room for any more talents that benefit Kan Po. Repel Boarders and Flanking are his only talents left, and they're more negative than positive. What's better, a double-damage super hit or a weak flanking and a regular damage super hit?
