Hello everybody !
I’ve recently come up with an idea that could be implemented. Although Anet have said we will see more ulility-slot-skills in the future, there is something that kept bugging me-weapon skills. I will not complain on the weapon skills system, because I think it is VERY well done, BUT simply comparing to first Guild Wars possibilities of building a build ( just in my opinion ) are not so numerous. Here comes the idea ( I’m looking forward a discussion about it, so feel free to say what you think
) : for each of the skill slot ( from 1 to 5 ) develop a couple(2-5) skills to choose from. A few details about that " system "
1) each slot would have separate skills, which means you could not use #1 slot skill on #2,#3,#4,#5 slots
2) each of the skills for one slot could be done based on tradeoffs, for ex. two skills for #1, where one would do aoe damage with lower dmg and the other one would do more dmg, but would deal damage only to one target etc.
3) a player would be able to change those weapon skills like traits, at a certain merchant for a small fee ( I think that being able to change them just when you are out of combat would be too powerful, but again, it’s a discussion )
Well that would be it ! Tell me what you think of it and who knows. . . maybe Anet will like the idea as well
( they propably won’t though xd ) Cheers !
