The big question in most of our heads is “just what are those specializations, really?”

And big part of this riddle are the weapon choices a specialization has. We’ve seen our characters will be able to wield weapons they could not before when they specialize..but how many and what of the old weapons?

Will my druid be able to wield staff only and nothing else?
Or will he be able to wield other weapons, including some (if not all) a ranger can?
And if the latter is the case, will he be using ranger skills on those weapons that the base class uses, or have a new, druid-only skillset on them?

Well i guess they’re saving this for last, but if someone knows something asides “druid-staff, mesmer-shield, engi-hammer, and guardian probably longbow” i’m all ears.

From what weve heard it sounds like each specialisation gives the class a single new weapon. And I believe that replaces a single weapon from the base class. So the number of weapons per class doesnt change.
