Guild Wars 2

According to some videos about HoT and http://dulfy.net/gw2traits , we will be forced to pick three trait trees only. What if I want a trait from a forth trait tree instead of a useless grandmaster one ( from the selected three trait trees ) for my build ? It’s unfair to waste them

Too bad? honestly the new trait system is still better in the long run then the old system. You should be able to find what you want. Especially considering that allot of abilities are becoming baseline.

If you have 3 useless traits in the GM spot but still felt otherwise compelled to go into the line because of a theme, there is a problem with the traits likely. Over all though, this is a balance driven design, and it’s not always bad to make hard decisions. Hard decisions are what drive diversity.

its not better, its a different system, but regardless it is happening so may as well accept it

That’s the trade-off for getting 4 additional trait points, and the means to avoid power creeps. If you’re allowed to allocate freely with 18 trait points, some OP combination would be brought out, especially after they improve the overall effectiveness of most traits.

However, I do understand some classes rely on minor traits alot, so they grab 4~5 trait lines for their build (Guardian and Mesmer that is). They’d suffer abit because of the change, but I think new builds will be made available, so you really shouldn’t be too worry about it.
