Reaper Weapon and Armor Skin
Unlocks? Really? thats pretty cool i didnt know this. I’m expecting the tribal armour. We already know they that shall not be named are capable of removing content to give it back as “new content” so i wouldnt be surprised if the armour is the light(that we’ve all been waiting for) at the end of the Reaper tunnel
See the reason I think it is prolly going to be The hood he wears and the sword he wields in the vid is that neither of those things actually exist ingame yet, go ahead rewatch that vid lol I was wishing it was a new full armor skin, but hey ho…. im happy we get something
The hood looks like the Arah skin to me, the sword yes i think is HoT
first off where did you get info that unlocking the spec unlocks the specific armor/weapon? 2nd, the hood in the video is the arah hood with shadow abyss dye
The hood in the video is our special armor unlock. It’s even the class icon. And the weapon skin we unlock is obviously the six-eyed greatsword that’s on the spec artwork.
Actually if you look at the video the hood is not the arah one as there is no skull there, in regards to the fact there are unlocks for completing the elite specs there was a post somewhere on it when I have time I will find it for you.
Edit: found it, right at the bottom

ts a lot sir. sorry for any misinformation I gave
Perhaps helpful, though just an idea, this reminded me of something on Dulfy. When you scroll down to “Other Sneak Peaks” and look at the female necromancer with the new legendary staff Nevermore above it is a caption that reads; “Nevermore on necromancer with new HoT armor.” Is is the new necro armor or just a new HOT armor, dunno, but figured I’d post it here anyways.

Pretty sure we’re getting that greatsword and hood from the trailer, but I guess we’ll see in just a few days if that’s correct. :p
[qT] Necro main.
Its highly likely that its the hood. Which is pretty disappointing to me. Was hoping for some decent shoulders. Im not a fan of covering my necros face/head with hoods. Makes my perma hair kit pointless. :P
Nice didnt hear about skins! I like my armor just fine but my GS skins are horrid, need a cool one
We also getting Runes and Sigils class specific unlocks from what I guess is the 170 datamined Hero Points required to unlock it all. They already confirmed on twitch that the Greatsword on the pics are the one we unlock, called: Reaper Greatsword or The Dark Greatsword something like that.
The Arrmor was showned to us abit on Fridays stream by the female Dev. saying “to those who dont think it looks Dark enough for Necros, look here”
I like the look overall

Hi
Can some one confirm how we get the sword/armour Skin if this is
1: Simply using all traits and points in (Skills/Specialisations)
2: a Mastery to get this ?
TIA

I forget what stream they covered it in, but it’s a line you’ll be sinking Hero Points into. You’ll use HP to unlock traits and skills first (function over frilly) and then if you sink more HP into it to unlock the skins. There has been speculation about how many points total per complete elite, but last I’d heard, some datamining puts us at 250 HPs. Which, I seriously hope it’s not 250 points, because that’s just insane.

Don’t look at me like that. Whatever you’ve heard, it’s probably not true.

Im pretty sure this is all the information we have atm and it doesn’t really tell us. It’s from their blogpost: Specializations, Part Two
“Elite Specialization Reward Tracks
Finally, these reward tracks unlock everything for an elite specialization: weapon, unique mechanics, skills, and traits. They’ll also reward items, including new runes and sigils, a fancy weapon skin for your new weapon type, and an armor skin for a single matching piece of armor (usually headgear or shoulders).”
Wild edit appears!
Colin said this on another thread:
It’s 400 points total to unlock everything in an elite spec training line – I just can’t remember off hand how many points folks have currently if they have done all the existing ones, but it’s right around 200. The rest you’ll need to earn in jungle to unlock the deeper skills/traits/etc. in the training line.
You only need 60 hero points to begin using your elite spec, the points you spend after that continue to unlock more skills, traits, skins, etc.
Again, hero challenges are worth 10 points each in the jungle. So no you don’t need to go do 200-400 jungle challenges.

@Lanfear, cheers for info
@DTATL
rewards tracks…… being PVP? or reward tracks in the new area?

This was posted by Colin about half an hour ago in the HoT forum:
Unlocking your elite spec is a training line in your training panel that costs hero points. You do need to have trained all the existing training lines before you’re allowed to put hero points into your elite spec.
If you’ve got all the hero points in the existing game you’ll have enough to train about half the elite specialization training line on launch day. The rest you’ll need to earn in the jungle or via the new system Tyler outlined yesterday from WvW. The number of points to fully train your elite spec is higher than other training lines – but hero challenges in the jungle are worth 10 points each, so it’s not actually as big as it appears.
Couple of things to note:
- You need to have all of the core traits and skills unlocked first
- The line is located in your hero panel, like standard specs
- Maguuma Hero Challenges give 10 points each, not just 1
So this does make that 250 HP datamining seem highly likely
Well strike that, I missed his follow up post:
Unless I am mistaken just to unlock half of the training line, we need 212 hero points?

400 hero points for the complete line.
Please for the love of all six gods, shoot me now.

Holy……..******* * #$#$#$ @#@!!!
Talk about taking this to a NEW NEW NEW LEVEL
well thanks for information mate,,,,,,, jeebus i was not expecting this kind of nonsense
not really the discussion here but 400 ain’t bad. This is designed to be progression, not to unlock everything right away and be done with it forever. We have known this since the start.
just as long as the Skills,Traits is in those first 170pts… cause I dont wanna fncg do PvE for hours to complete my Reaper Specc. The glamour surrounding skins can take upto 400 idc but NOT the fcng Skills & Traits

It has also been stated that traits and skills will be unlocked first.
