LOL I imagine a zerk of revenants with “resistance” boon honing in on a group of condi spitting enemies..“bye bye”
Well of corruption finishes this zerg.
Which brings me to the question, what condition is opposite to resistance boon?
Need more than 1 Specialization to make sense
in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

When I heard “Specialization” it immediately reminded me of many old MMOs (Asian ones, like Requiem or Pandora Saga), where you have your base class (say, rogue, for example) with a set of basic skills, and when you get to 50 lvl, you can decide between 2 or more specialization with completely different, specialization-unique skills, and you keep your base-profession skills too.
In Requiem online, mentioned above, the rogue at 50 lvl could become an assassin, specializing (this word again…) in dual wielding swords and taking out targets 1 by 1 or a stalker, that relied on crossbows and massive DoT damage from huge distances. Both could use the basic rogue skills and swords/crossbows, though the skills from the specialization were totally unique.
It’s fine, that A-net brings only one specialization per profession at once (at least they are doing something), if they will bring more in later. If not, then the specialization is just utterly terrible choice of the name of this mechanic.
