Guild Wars 2

While I appreciate the effort at providing new GM trait options, I can’t help but question if it was worth it. This is in response to the extremely poor reception so far of these new traits upon comparison to existing GM traits in the same slots. The overwhelming consensus seems to be that few, if any, are going to take any of these new GM traits. I know we haven’t seen the full extent of the upcoming feature patch, but I’m having a tough time seeing how anything can change the lack of desire for these new GMs. Maybe they are fantastic in wvw or pvp and I’m just not seeing it, but it seems like time would have been more effectively spent bug fixing or updating poorly laid out trait lines (zeal!!!)

Considering hwo the Ele Earth trait doesn’t even work with an existing trait (Lingering Elements), I’m not surprised that the rest turned out to be useless as well.

Srsly, how hard is it to either work out balance for LE on the eixisting traits, or to update the tooltip description to say "THIS ONLY WORKS ON FIVE POINT MINORS, BY THE WAY. LOL BALANCE."

To be optimistic a little bit, lets hope that this is just the beginning of adding more skills and traits. What might be useless today, becomes useful tomorrow. But you both have a valid points.
