Guild Wars 2

A few months ago Anet changed every skill in the game to be part of a group – Signets, Shouts, etc -.

I just noticed that the Shelter skill for guardian doesn’t belong to any of them. I don’t remember seeing any mention on this, so I assume it’s a bug, correct?

I believe they’ve actually commented on this one and that it’s intended. Might have been during the livestream where they showed off specializations for the first time. I’m not sure.

It is not part of any group since all the other groups have cooldown/effectiveness improvement traits. If the skill was put into a group, the base ability would have to be made worse to compensate for the extra power from traits. Instead of making it worse and requiring a trait to make it better, they just left it alone.
