Guild Wars 2

I know Mortar is changing to be a kit.

Is it going to stay an elite skill, making it the only elite skill that gives a kit, or is it going to be changed to a normal utility skill?

It will become a elite kit (currently without cooldown, so exactly like all other kits), also we get a F5 toolbelt-skill for all our elites.
Mortar seems to get some telegraphed artillery-strike as toolbelt, Elixir X will have a short lasting aoe-transform (the stream showed 2sec of Moa for 5 targets, enough to interrupt a rezz/stomp, etc.), and supply-crate is changing into some kind of elite-turret, where the F5 skill will be the regular “explode turret” + 1 unknown toolbelt skill for that turret. also it’s unknown what this elite turret itself does.

Motar-Kit will still be an elite skill.

For my understandings it will stay an elite, no devs said it will be demoted to utility..there would be too much kit utility otherwise

Thank you for the quick replies from everyone! What an awesome forum! You are all very responsive and helpful.

They said the trait Changes will go live Before the expac, but I didn’t quite get if that was for the mortar change too or not.
