did we already play the new spec in LS2?
90% of Caith abilities are copypaste of Thiefs abilities just a very litle modified
there was like 1-2 ? abilities that acctualy thiefs don’t have but they are meh.
ALSO we gonna get a new weapon with totaly new set of abilities Caith uses 2 daggers and basicaly all the abilities are dagger abilities.
-Total War: Warhammer
-Guild Wars 2
that’s exactly why i think it might be the new specialization. copypasting most of the animations would save a lot of programming work for anet and we still get a different way of playing thief. lets say with less stealth and dmg but higher survivability through even higher mobility. and changing the skills for dual dagger if you become a, lets say, “assassin” (or what ever it will be called) will make it more of a choice to specialize rather than a just adding new skills and a weapon.
I believe it was at PAX they stated that Caithe’s skills were blatantly overpowered. I doubt they’d decide to make those part of a specialization lol.
And frankly, they were OP. No, I’d expect specializations to be based around ranged combat options.
