Guild Wars 2

Been about 1 yr since I last played and a lot has changed with the gw2 game. I see a new traits system. I have searched and searched, including in-game and have found absolutely nothing. Here is my question…

How do u reset your trait points ?

previously u would just talk to a trainer, but looks like all trainers have been removed from the game. This game has become, not a very user friendly game. Not good guys.

Just want to reset my trait points to change my build.

Do not have to use trainer any more. Can change trait all want at no cost in trait menu. If you level 80 have enough point to unlock all trait and change when want.

wont let me change it. Weirdest thing. Oh well.

Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it.

You probably miss some thing then. It work like that for every player. Maybe you do not look at right place. Look in hero panel and trait. Or is bug and then contact support.

This applies to lvl 80. At lvl you will have enough to unlock all trait lines. After the trait lines have been unlocked you can freely switch. To unlock the trait lines you need to go to the training tab under the hero menu.

For non 80s they rebuilt your character using hero points. You will get hero points from lvling and from hero challenges to unlock other lines.

You may need to re-train to unlock all trait lines. There’s a new tab in hero panel for that

Go to the Training tab on the left side of the Hero Panel. Then click around on the tabs and lines until you see circles in the main field of the panel. You can unlock everything at level 80, though right now you might want to unlock the bare minimum needed for your build on the off chance that you’ll be able to use the spare points to unlock your Elite spec in HoT. You unlock your choice of traits and skills, going in order clockwise around from the top, either one step at a time or by clicking on the final step you want and spending all the points at once.

Then use the Build tab to select your three trait lines (two if you’re really saving up for the Elite) by clicking in the large area to the left of the line, then picking which of the lines you want in that slot. From there you click the little squares in each of the three tiers to pick your specific traits. Utilities will slot in the same way they always did once you unlock their themed circles.

As you get 3 full trait lines now, till grandmaster each, it really doesn’t matter and you’ll just change complete trait lines when switching…
You are not (no longer) trying to fit in 70 (ancient system) or 14 points (old system) you now have 3 full trait lines. But can only switch between unlocked lines. You’ll have enough points to unlock all basic lines at lvl 80, you’ll need heropoints fot HoT specs….

In effect you have 18 points (90 in the ancient system) but you need to put ’m in 3 trait lines (mandatory)

This also means some older builds are no longer possible (e.g. 6/2/2/2/2 ele and such…)

Generally this isn’t a problem and the newer traits tendf to be a little mopre synergetic and thus more powerfull..
