(New Player) Questions

New Player, just bought this game crom Steam Summer Sale 2017! I just built my character Soldier. He is now level 24, single class because I dont know which secondary class to pick. I want him to be two handed (cause it looks cool) but not yet have anything locking him to such.

Questions
1. What does Damage Retaliation mean? Like [32 poison Retaliation] what does that do?
2. If an effect says +20% Frost damage, is it useless until I get a source of frost damage?
3. What is the advantage of going two handed? I fear it would be bad because I do not get the (possible) Item effects I would have if I used a off-hand or shield.

4. What are conisdered super bad Soldier Skills?
4.A. I got 1 point in Cadence, Shockwave, Blade Arc and 5 points in Markovian, Zolhan and the other %Passive (Get buffs when hit). Is this OK? SHould I invest more points into the Active Skills? they get like just 10% damage per skill.
4.B. Posts here say that Blade Arc is better than Forcewave, but I tend to use forcewave more because it has higher Area. What makes Blade Arc better than Force Wave? Am I correct to assume that if I specialize in Force Wave I should not Blade Arc?
5. The %Proc Passives I just leveled them to five so they do not have super RNGesus 8% proc, I reasoned around 25% seems Ok. Is this fine?

6. Which are the must get Devotions? I get Kraken needs 5 blue and 5 green, So what are the good green and blue starters?

7. Why is Physical convert to XXX(Fire) damage so important?
7.A. When I have [convert 40% Physical to Fire] and have another effect [+25% Physical Damage] doesnt the conversion effect actually reduce my potential damage?

8. I seem to not use Energy much, I have 6xx or so Energy and I dont even dip into 5xx range. Am I doing something wrong here?

Thanks in Advance
