Guild Wars 2

I think we all want to see a bit more build diversity. I think we all want to be able to customise our skill bars.

But I don’t think that’s going to be possible because it’ll be a ton of work for ANet. So, why don’t we take the next best thing?

(This is pretty much ripped straight off ESO, because of all the stuff they screwed up on, this feature was actually very good)

What’s going to happen is that, all your weapon skills are still going to be locked in place, but you’ll be able to select some of their attributes to better fit your build/playstyle.

For example, on Death Blossom, you can either have it either:

1. Lose the bleed damage and do more direct damage (to use as power-based AoE).
2. Lose its direct damage and pile on more bleeds (for condi builds)
3. Make it lose its bleed but extend the dodge to 3/4 seconds (to use as an evasive skill)

or of course, just leave it as it is.

I dunno, I think ANet could do some seriously interesting things with skills if they portioned out their time a little differently. Currently it seems that it’s all going to Living Story though..

Trait system was originally suppose to do this.

To bad that never worked out.

This.

We also have some hope for it with future traits, but seeing how useless the Feature Patch traits were, not much of it.
