Each your shoot make enemy go nuts =P. each level makes enemy shoot at random direction for 20 moves

Isn't it similar to bashing then? Only one thing is changing - when bashed he is standing still, and when he's hit in nerve, he is standing still and firing.

More unbalancing already? 90 turns without doing anything at 90% chance? Even 1 turn dizzied might be overkill... you just keep hitting the demon with a chaingun (which has 5 hits per turn, not mentioning you MUST have at least Finesse 2, so more chance of putting him out of combat) and he dies eventually without even touching you.
I don't quite get what's so useful about Kicker, but it might be just me.
Charmer is just a NO. We don't need Bards who tame demons in this game. :P
Ammo gainer, as RickVoid said, is useless. You can already hoard lots of ammo without it.
Ammo sharper is also contrary to the spirit. The thing with DoomRL is that you have to choose what you bring along because of the limited inventory. If we add this kind of things, we lose that strategy factor, which in my opinion is a bad thing to do.
On Stalker, I think it's just contrary to the spirit of the game, no matter the chance. We already have the almighty Intuition to snipe from the farthest places without being noticed. Also, Intuition already helps you NOT to push the wrong lever :P
Nerve Shot is just overpowered beyond any comprehension. Shoot a monster and watch the show. It is also agaisnt the spirit of DoomRL being a shooter-RL, implementing things like crazyness, enchantments and so on.
As I said, SoaB is pretty much useless, as well as some other traits. I think the priority should be making every trait useful and then, implement new traits. The more valid strategies we have in our hands, the more fun we'll have with the game.
For example, SoaB might add +1 damage per dice, not per attack. So, the shotgun would have 6d3+6(the number of dice rolled), the BFG 8d8+8 and so on. Right now, spending a trait for a 8d8+1 for the BFG feels a bit dumb.

I'd like to second this post with one addition:
I think every base skill should also lead to an advanced skill that make focusing on it worthwhile and that is not the case for all skills right now.
Fingerzam:
I'd like to note that there's already Reloader and Shottyman for shotguns, so I don't see increasing shotguns' damage as a priority, but I do agree that Finesse and SoaB do need advanced traits to make 'em better, like something allowing you to shoot additional bullets with chaingun and plasma rifle for SoaB (this was suggested by someone on #DoomRL some time ago).
Finesse would also need some boosting to itself.
