Sazukikrah.5036 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Title says it all. It could be under Novelty. I'd pay 2000 gems for a novelty item that allowed you to change utilities to a certain class in PvE maps only (not raids / dungeons / Fractals) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres an event going on right now from July 5th to the 12th that allows you to swap utilities for other classes when you finish off foes. So for example a warrior could have Guardian utilities.

HnRkLnXqZ.1870 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 I like the event in WvW so far, could be interesting to have the feature in PvE as well. I would not mind having a multiclass-mastery in the next LS. Not a huge fan of gemstore-unlocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yann.1946 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 It doesn't really matter that it is not in a competitive game mode, it's pay2win in the sense that you are stronger then other people, so you're able to farm easier the others etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well introduce more npcs with the cores we got charr elementalist, engineers, warrior and theives, ogre rangers, for example just need some more necros, guardians, mesmers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd pay 2000 gems for a novelty item that allowed you to change utilities to a certain class in PvE maps only (not raids / dungeons / Fractals) It would be interesting as a way to add the GW1's secondary professions to the game. We would be able to pick a core profession and, from that core profession, have access to: * Healing skills * Utility skills * Elite skills NO ACCESS to traits or weapon skills or profession mechanics, or specialization skills So, for example, a necromancer would be able to choose guardian as it secondary profession, and so access core guardian's healing, utility and elite skills. No access to Virtues, to guardian's weapon skills or to guardian's trait lines (and no access to anything related to the dragonhunter or the firebrand). Without access to the secondary professions' traits, the skills would be weaker than they can be for the main profession (our necromancer would have no access to the guardian trait that make meditations heal on cast, for example), which would work to keep this system balanced. It would be a nice way to increase build options in the game. Of course, this would have to be released as part of an expansion or feature pack, not something sold on the Gem Store.

Voltekka.2375 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 The event is trash, people abuse bugs/exploits, the skills you get are situational at best, most are bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben K.6238 Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 They're probably floating ideas for a future expansion, so maybe one day this will turn into a secondary profession thing.

Every event they have has the messages like this in the top right. You can click to expand for a little more info. If you need more info than that, time to head to the web.

MithranArkanere.8957 Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 It could be interesting as a mastery. There could be some sort of shrine or object you can use to get the special action key. That way it would be possible to control where it can be used. As a novelty it would be rather broken as it would allow using it anywhere and force devs to consider them for every map, unless they disabled it in WvW and raids like they do with many novelties already. By making it a mastery they can limit where it can be used and make sure the content can handle it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hugo.4705 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 When clicking on the wvw build swap tab at the top right of your screen it also open a pop up leading you to the website/news if I remember well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otto.5684 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 There is an event, WvW Core Swap Special Event: [https://guildwars2.com/en/news/coming-soon-wvw-core-swap-special-event/](https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/coming-soon-wvw-core-swap-special-event/ "https://guildwars2.com/en/news/coming-soon-wvw-core-swap-special-event/"). This would be extremely awesome if added to open world PvE. This would create insane amount of reliability. I am willing to pay money for this, even without new maps.

I expect: 1) Wither you can acquire a trait line or not, I expect it to be limited to be an elite line. Meaning, you cannot equip it and equip an elite line at the same time. Obliviously, you can equip only one sub class at a time. 2) I expect it will be open only in solo PvE, in the beginning. It is hard to predict the impact. Essentially, we are adding the equivalent of 9 elites line for every class. There could be a ton of overpowered synergies that we cannot predict. After a while, it could essentially be available in all PvE content, then WvW. By design, I do not think this would work in sPvP. 3) Similar to hero points, I expect there would be a new system, where you would earn points, kinda similar to hero points. Probably mastery points. Overall, outside of unexpected synergies (which should be figured out and quashed), it should not be stronger than regular elites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Assassin X.8573 Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 If anything this shows that anet could have implemented cross classing like gw1 from the beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
