So im ok with the new specs being better then the old ones. Im ok with that if it creates build diversity. I really would like the new specs to make some other things viable.
For instance like in the tempest trait line. Row 1 gave more power options so builds like scepter focus/dagger/warhorn are viable. For 2 could be the current meta specks for shouts and row 3 could be a condi build for player who would want to play earth/arcane. You could make it so 3 types of build types with just the new spec line.
For instance the new trait line for thief is great since it can be condi with d/d and dps with staff but the problem is it counters nothing.
We need more classes to have more options and the new spec should do that. For instance make dwarf and centaur revs actually viable.
The warrior trait line could be fixed so easily by simply adding a dps trait line/ defense/ condi dmg. Get rid of dumb specs like 1 pulse of stability and gain life on a death hit. Which people are trying to use right now.
If there are any better ideas i would love to hear them but currently we have less viable builds now then we had before the hot.
