Maybe it was just rumor and wishful thinking, but I thought there was a build/trait swap option on the horizon?
(meaning being able to swap between two sets of traits/builds in PvE when out of combat, much like swapping weapons in combat now)

The Instant Trait Reset now available in the gem store seems to more or less fulfil that role, though it’s far too expensive to use on a regular basis. (~60ct or 2.5g)
Does its existance mean there will never be a trait-swap?

If the game designers want support or condition builds to become more viable (in random dungeon groups), I need to be able to switch to/from that build, depending on my groups needs.
Nothing is more useless than 200% poison or fire uptime in your group. And no change in condition dmg scaling will change that.
I don’t want to be the 3rd Altruistic Healing Guardian in my group in an easy dungeon.
But I would like the option of switching from full egoistic berserker-Necro to something more supporty if necessary (I might actually start playing my necro again).

disclaimer: I’m not complaining about the instant trait reset. It would still be useful if build swapping should ever be implemented. I just really want to have 2 builds available at any time
please do not complain about instant trait reset here, go somewhere else

Have no fear, A-net has said they want to add build templates. I doubt this would replace them, it’s just another item for people to buy.
