Guild Wars 2

So I was looking at the screenshots in the Specializations articles and I may have noticed something.

Disclamer I do not/have not ever played an Ele in GW2 so this may be nothing.

But what we know right now is that we can pick 3 of 5 Specializations and that we can then pick an Adept, Master and Grandmaster trait from each, right?

But looking at the screenshot from Specializations Part Two it looks like we may be able to swap out which 3 Adept, Master and Grandmaster traits we have to choose from.

The Adept and Master sections of the “ring” both have an extra trait, and grandmaster section has two “extra” traits.

TBH all this rage may be nothing more than bad UI design.

Crappy Photoshoping to try and show you all what I’m talking about.

In another thread a poster commented that it looks like those are the special weapons and armors mentioned as coming with specs. Without being able to mouse over the icons for tooltips, the most we can manage are educated guesses

My guess would be that maybe we unlock passive (non-stat) bonuses that are specific to each line. For example, Maybe when you are 1/3 through unlocking the Arcane line, you get your Attunement swap recharge down, then maybe 2/3 will give <some other bonus, maybe boon direction> and at 3/3 you will get some other passive bonus.

Well then whats all this rage over there being only 27 possible builds?

People are raging over things they have guessed to be true
