Guild Wars 2

So I read about the trait system being reworked in the update scheduled for next month and how we will no longer have to buy training manuals to access different tiers.

Here’s my dilemma. I am currently leveling a Thief. I am at level 59 right now. When I turn level 60, in order to access the last tier of traits, I have to spend 2 of my 12 gold on the manual. Why am I spending that 2 gold to get the next tier of traits when I know that come April 15th I’ll be getting them for free!? Should I just keep playing and leveling without my last tier until the update if I want to save that 2 gold?

I guess my real question is for ArenaNet. Since you announced that you’re making the manuals obsolete why don’t you make them free or at the very least less expensive till the update so that people don’t have to waste their gold on a system that they know you’re basically going to be getting rid of in less than a month?
