Guild Wars 2

I’m not a fan of this either. But they could surprise us. If you check medi guardian for exemple. You would have to sacrifice 1 pts in either radiance or honor, but you would be able to complete one of those two line. For exemple you could sacrifice vigor on critical hits but gain a boon removal capacity when you put burn, improve your burning duration and improve you crit with your spectre.

Or you could sacrifice your blind on F1, but gain 300 vitality, reduce recharge on your Hammer and give might on crits.

I would still prefer that they gave us 9 major trait to choice in all 5 trait lines and that specialisation allow us to replace one of these 5 trait lines.
