Guild Wars 2

Im confused. What happened to the traits and trait skills I had before? This new trait system thing has me confused. Do I need to unlock everything over again?

Also what has changed within the past 8 months that I missed?

To answer your first question, traits changed on June 23.

Last 8 months? There’ve been some balance changes, conditions now stack much higher than before (meaning more than two condi users in a boss battle are no longer a waste), burns and poison now stack intensity like bleeds always did. Oh, and there’s an expansion in the wings.
