Swagger.1459 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Suggestion 1- Group similar traits. Completely open the trait system for selection. Allow players to select 18 core profession traits or 12 core profession traits and 6 elite specialization traits. Or… Suggestion 2… Group similar traits. Reorganize them in lines more sensibly by type. No forced preset choices. Players get 3 line choices from core profession traits and 1 elite specialization choice, totaling 4 lines. Players can choose 2 traits from Adept, 2 from Master and 2 from Grandmaster for each line selected. To explain suggestion 2 better… Weapon Mastery line- All profession weapon improvements are lumped into this line. An example of set up… Weapon Adept- Improves all main hand weapons. Weapon Master- Improves all off hand weapons. Weapon Grandmaster- Improves all two handed weapons. Slot Skills Mastery line- All slot skill improvements go here… Slot Skill Adept- Improves heal slot skills. Slot Skill Master- Improves utility skills. Slot Skill Grandmaster- Improves elite slot skills. Offensive Mastery line- All offensive tailored traits go here. Offensive Adept… Improves power skills. Offensive Master… Improves precision skills. Offensive Grandmaster… Improves fury. Condition and Control Mastery line- All condition and control tailored traits go here. Condition Adept… Improves “soft” condition damage. Condition Master… Improves control effects Condition Grandmaster… Improves condition duration. Defensive Mastery line- All defensive tailored traits go here. Defensive Adept… Improves dodges. Defensive Master… Improves resistance to non condition damage sources. Defensive Grandmaster… Improves resistance to conditions and control effects. Core professions “schtick”++ line- All traits that improve unique mechanics for professions go here… Elementalist Attunment++. Engineer Tool Belt++. Guardian Virtues++. Mesmer Shatter++. Necromancer Death Shroud++. Ranger Pets++. Revenant Legends++. Thief Steal++. Warrior Burst++ Core professions “schtick”++ Adept… Core professions “schtick”++ Master… Core professions “schtick”++ Grandmaster… Elite Specialization 1 Mastery line… All generation 1 adept, master and grandmaster elite traits go here. Elite Specialization 2 Mastery line… All generation 2 adept, master, grandmaster elite traits go here. Elite Spec 3… You are super welcome for the trait rework framework idea!

Opopanax.1803 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Some great ideas, would help with underutilized traits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shirlias.8104 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Condition master. Improves control effects. Lol Balance apart, i think the customization will become absent...And also the choice between defensive and offensive stats could lead to a bunker meta.

Larenc.1269 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Last time they touched the trait system we lost a teir. ie 4 to 3. So don't get your hopes up to high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
