With the upcoming addon Path of Fire, elite specializations find their way into the MMORPG Guild Wars 2. This weekend you can try them out for free.
The developers of the game have now talked about these specializations in a developer diary, which aim to better define the roles in the MMO. With the specializations, players can better tailor their heroes to their personal playstyle.
However, the developers also explain that the specializations are not a must, and there will be no content that requires a specialization.
New ways to approach challenges
With the elite specializations, players will be able to approach challenges better and in different ways.
A pure warrior can attack a boss directly with strong attacks, but will not be able to do much against its powerful attacks. A warrior with the specialization Spellbreaker, on the other hand, can apply a debuff and thus weaken the boss’s powerful attacks, but deals less damage in return.
Veterans get more options
With the elite specializations, GW2 veterans also receive new opportunities to expand their heroes in new ways and solve situations differently. Therefore, this feature is an important part of Path of Fire. In the developer diary, the team of Guild Wars 2 reveals more about the elite specializations, and if you want to try them yourself, you can do so this weekend.
We have introduced the elite specializations of Path of Fire in this article.
Because the addon Path of Fire can be tested for free from Friday, August 18 to Sunday, August 20.
