I really liked all the news about Mastery system and Profession specializations. This is the kind of thing that I was asking for! For example in this thread. And the only answer I did get from you guys was: go back to WoW… Finally I did get an awesome answer from Arena Net and I’m more then happy now.
But I must ask again: what about gear progression. And I don’t mean vertical progression because this is NOT what I want! I’m asking about new ways to customize our gear. Something like gear specialization that allows you to alter your weapon skills. I’m asking about the infusions? Are there going to be more of those? I would also like to see weapons with unique and fixed sigils. Something that would really make the gear unique.
I’m asking this because that kind of things would really make the rewards more fun and exciting. And a lot less like: “two blues and a green”. I would really like to see gear rewards that make you excited because they enable you to play in a different and unique way. Instead of just annoying you because the only thing you can do with that rare item you just got after killing that huge dragon is to salvage it for ecto.

Go back to WoW you say? Gave a link did you? You might want to recheck that link since it isn’t providing any evidence for your victim-hood by us mean mean forum-ites.
But anyway on topic, and is pretty much the answer to most of the questions in HoT forum, we don’t know. But it would appear that we’re not getting horizontal progress beyond skins, not the type of progress you want (which I’m not exactly sure is horizontal, it seems more you want specialization than progression).

The horizontal progression will apparently be the class specializations and the new masteries (which seem to have a lot more going on with them than just combat)
