Seems there is a lot of division here. to run a sword/X axe/X build with say a warhorn and a dagger ( my build ) you need 4 traits if you want the bonuses for them. considering how they buffed them to not just be CD recharge anymore they all look really good.
Soo.. with that set-up I need 4 traits, 2 of which are grandmaster. That would be max but the lowest you could get to have bonuses on all the one handed weapons you have would be 3 traits.
What Changed – No one took the axe trait before it only had ferocity and no CD so you could skip it. same with sword trait as it did CD on both GS and Sword so you would have to run double melee to fully utilize it so maybe live with it. Now both sword and axe traits are major buffs, and are grandmaster. but is just buffing your weapons enough to make up for the other GM traits in that line?. and as for offhand training now we get 2 seperate for them? Suddenly making the most of 1 handed weapons involves a lot of traits in awkward spots. not sure how fun that will be.
Oh and the range increase on offhand weapons? did I miss it or did it become baseline or is it gone?
