Guild Wars 2

One of the cool things about RPGs is building a character that has a different skill-set than another character of the same class. It serves to differentiate your character from another. I would like to see more of that.

What I want to suggest here are Order Skills. Somewhat along the lines of Racial Skills, which you are given based on your choice of Race at character creation, the Order you choose to support in the Story grants access to six skills that are unavailable in sPvP. Again, like Racials, the Order skills are divided between the tiers with three Utilities and three Elites.

The Skills would, of course, be flavoured based on the Order. The Order of Whispers Skills, for example, would include a trap, a poison and an Elite stealth, while Vigil Skills would include something that gives Might, an AoE attack and a 30-point Elite Skill that summons some Vigil troops (along the lines of Hounds of Balthazar).

I have only just thought if this and haven’t given much thought into what these Skills might be, so any suggestions would be great… just remember that they should be the equivalent of Racials that are useful for every class but not necessarily so over-powering that any given class is best to choose a particular Order over another.
