Anyone else find it highly annoying that Phantoms and Clones get different traits that dont work for the other, it seems like a big waste to the whole tree having traits that affect one but not the other.

What would you guys think if Anet decided to make it so that traits that affect clones also affect Phantoms and traits that affect Phantoms affect clones?

Like debilitating Dissipation and Phantasmal Fury – Personally i think that these traits should affect the other as well. This way they would free up some traits to bring in a bit more for Condition builds

it would make the now-useless Vengeful Images more appealing,at least
but probably a bad idea for other unforseen reasons,as with everything in the gaming world

Yeah, the game is so badly coded i think them trying this would be like trying to divide by Zero, Because its rare for them to release a bug fix/update that doesnt some how manage to either over buff something, overnerf something or just simply break something, hell it could break something that has no connection to the skill they ar playing around with…

Absolutely and i sure want to have the Phantasmal Fury’s effect on clones. Plus it makes no sense to have traits such as Crippling Dissipation/Confusion Combatants/Debilitating Dissipation… This is three different traits all in different trees that should be fused in one and put in a Master Trait, THEN it would be worth taking. This is a problem for all classes tho, too many useless traits that should be fused together to be worth a kitten .

This reminds me of The Witch 2 which by spending skills unlocks the ability to block lol BLOCK had to be unlocked… GW2 does the same thing by letting you unlock crap that should never be unlocked individually but be combined with other stuff like the example above and we instantly have two freed traits (for something completely new) and one that is significantly more powerful especially for condi builds.

Fact: every Thief tells you to “l2p” when the subject is to nerf stealth.

Yeah some classes arnt to bad with it, others are a mess. I personally think the whole trait system is a mess. For me until something comes along and its its crown Rift has the BEST talent/trait system of any MMO, sure the game wasnt to amazing, decent but not amazing but boy was that a good talent system
