Guild Wars 2

“All major traits will be locked on characters created after the feature pack. All existing characters created before this feature pack will have all previously existing major traits unlocked.”

Now I have 2 level 4 characters i haven’t touched in awhile and created them before the patch. But they don’t have trait abilities unlocked yet. When they do unlock, will they be available or do I have to unlock them the new way even though they were created before the patch?

They will be available once you reach level 30.

They changed the levels that UNLOCK the trait tiers…..30/60/80.

If your character was created BEFORE the patch, then at each tier unlock, you will have access to all the traits EXCEPT XIII (at 80)…..everyone has to unlock these (even players that were 80 at patch).

If your character is created AFTER the patch, traits will have to be unlocked AFTER the tier unlocks by performing certain tasks across Tyria. You can hover over the trait’s spyglass icon to view a description of the task and then click on the spyglass to be shown the location on the world map. OR you can purchase the traits from your profession trainer in major cities (and a few open world locations).
