If this isn’t new I’ve never noticed it before, but I just finished the HotW story dungeon and received a rare helmet that had a new attribute, “Required Profession: Guardian, Warrrior”.

Being heavy armor I don’t know how such an attribute would help. Is this perhaps a remnant from an older system before armor classes were created? Do all heavy Mind of Koda helmets received as a reward from the story have this attribute?

heh, how odd is that. warrior and guardian are the only 2 that can use heavy armor. I dont think i saw required profession: mesmer, elementalist, necromancer on my hat before i scrapped it. going to help a friend with HOTW SM soon so, i’ll be sure to ask him to look for that when we finish it.

probably because some people wanted to transmute light armor stats on heavy armor skin.
