Guild Wars 2

So, as we know with the new specializations system stat bonuses are being removed from traitlines. To compensate this, base stats will be raised and equipment will provide higher bonuses.

Now, I have a question, what about class specific stats, the ones assigned to the fifth traitline? Will still be possible to increase those stats somehow, like for instance Empathy for Ranger or Cunning for Thief?

All class specifics were split, 50% baseline and 50% in the minors in the same tree.

Thank you, I think I missed that part from the livestream.
