Guild Wars 2

Is it Just me or Does the New Mastery system that HoT will bring with it seem to be arena net just re hashing an old idea "see EoN release for guild wars 1 (The Rank system) http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/List_of_Eye_of_the_North_skills ". I don’t mean to be having a go at arena net they have done amazing work to date with Guild Wars 2.

I hope the new mastery system isn’t going to turn Guild Wars 2 into a Grinder For End Game this would take away from the hard work A-Net have done to date.

P.S. for the Love of Tryia please make crafted Legendary Weapons account bound on acquire like the ascended Weapons and Armour.

While there are some slight similarites I wouldn’t say they are the same.

The masteries seems to be a much broader system for one, and not just tied specfically to combat.

Yeah, the EotN ranks are too specialized, just like the Lightbringer ranks from Nightfall.
The masteries feels way more broad and useful in many aspects of the game.

it sounds similar enough that we can draw comparisons, but with EotN tracks, it was more of a “take forever to progress through this, because every possible reward is tied to the same track”, whereas the masteries are spread through various, more specific tracks that (hopefully) won’t take as long to progress.
