Guild Wars 2

Make it so you do not need to trait into elite specialisations to have access to the new utilities/weapons. I understand that this was probably implemented because it kind of forces people to really want the new “elite” specialisation compared to the normal trait lines, but it really is not the brightest idea in regards to pvp.

It really limits the amount of things achievable in build compositions when I’d like to use the new elite but standard virtues on guardian, or if i wanted to use only one well on mesmer, and keep everything else standard.

If weapons and utilities must be bound to the new elite spec is a must for lore or whatever other purpose of “ranger cant use staff without being a druid”. It makes no sense. Please do not stick to that type of logic, its bad for pvp. So many things would happen if you guys remove the restrictions of elite specs. Please reconsider

it’s not for lore, it’s for balance

I 100% agree with this post. This was my first thought on the matter too

Logic while sacrificing synergy. I wish they’ve found another way to add new skills and mechanics. This one is kind of unpleasant.
