Remove minor traits and make them major
How about of making minor traits in to major ones, and where the minor traits were, make it a major slot, that way we could replace some “useless” traits that server no purpose to our build, yet they benefit from being in that trait line (for example, you go in to that trait line for the stat gains, Reanimator comes to mind).
It would open a window in to making more builds to be honest, and more options are always good right?
I like this idea, interchangeable minor traits has the potential to open up more build choices beyond the 2-3 cookie cutter builds for every class! +1 OP

More build diversity, or more tools to create the ultimate build for each weapon set?
Not only would it open up more options, it would allow ANet to collect better data on how many people actually like certain minor traits. Currently, they can check how many people are using each major trait, but, if given the option, how many thieves would totally ditch Last Refuge for anything else.
