Guild Wars 2

Lately I’ve been playing a lot of WvW with friends, despite being a thief I find myself doing a better job there as support than dps while in PvE in the areas due to he lack of players in my zone (currently lvl 65, seems most players are in the lvl 80 zone only) I find it very hard if not impossible to keep using the same build therefore I always have to retrait, and unless you are 80 just playing in the same area all players are or just doing dungeons this keep traits idea for supports gets expensive very fast (I really got scared when I made some calculations and therefore I’m limiting my experience to either only WvW or only PvE for 1 week periods in order to at least earn some cash)

Since as shown above the PvE and WvW builds may not fit so well together unless you want to be DPS in both (wich gets a bit boring in my opinion, I love supporting) you need to keep buying trait resets, so i’d suggest a build for each just like when you go to sPvP.

One of the most wanted ideas. Tottally agree! Anet could use a system similar to League of Legends with multiple “trait pages”, that we could pre-define and choose whenever we want so we can effectively change roles and playstyle in PvE, WvW, and dungeons.

I was looking for such a suggestion.

Considering that WvWvW is entirely separated from the PVE game, and from the PVP game, considering that you have to join a different dimension, I’m surprised this had not been made earlier.

Could be like in SPVP, in Hearth of The Mist. You arrive in the WvWvW dimension, and you have access to your WvWvW Build, and your WvWvW equipment. Anet wants the player to “use” money on respec? Fair enough. To reset a WvWvW build you need to speak to the WvWvW class trainer. Anet want players use the gear they have collected in Dungeon in WvWvW, fair enough again. Just make an additional equipment panel where you can save your equipment dedicated for WvWvW.

Personally I think the best thing they could introduce was what RIFT implimented. Loved the fact that my Cleric could DPS, Heal, and Tank.

Great Idea. I currently switch my traits constantly. I would even suggest monetizing this by giving it a gem cost. Let me have as many trait pages as I want as long as I’m willing to pay the gems.

and add Traits Pages.. so u can switch Builds easier.. “Trait Page” 100 Gems.. Would Bang That Shop

Please no to the gem trait pages, make its a level 80 unlock. Im fine with bank and inventory slots being gems. But having a separate trait set for gems would shoot the gem cost through the roof, potentially to the point where it isn’t even cost effective throughout all the time you play this game. Its just too big of a conveniance for players that like spending real money and promotes Anet to do more stuff like it. Not to mention its a huge pain switching traits back and forth if you want a WvW and PvE dedicated trait set. I myself build my traits for use in both instead of dedicating to one or the other.

Edit- Also this would probably encourage elitism, since people like me that build for both don’t have this easy switch that others would, and therefore I would be shunned, being forced to change my traits for maximum potential everytime at the trainer, where everyone else is waiting on me.

This really needs to happen….switching traits on my Ele and Rogue is starting to get old….if anything just make it a different set in WvW (Like PVE and SPVP)

a little bump to see if devs can see, so far i still haven’t seen any1 against this idea

Yup, I want this too

I also want this!!! would be nice!

Needs a separate thread and we should set a petition for all in favour of the traits page mechanic.
