Guild Wars 2

I was thinking about the dual professions in GW1. I thought of an easy way to implement a pseudo second profession by using the upgrade slots on weapons. A medallion or sigil of another profession could be attached to the weapon to make the weapon and skills of one profession usable on another. Sigil of the ranger, engineer, warrior, thief, etc.

The sigil or medallion could be an ascended item. It could even be limited to single-handed/off-hand weapons. I think it would be interesting to run a thief dagger or thief pistol skill off-handed on the engineer.

I don’t think that would do the skill system of GW1 justice. They should have just adopted it in GW2 from the start instead of coming up with this “great new idea” of limiting skills to a weapon and profession. They ruined it, IMO.
