}}
In the quiet that follows the events of ''[[Guild Wars 2: End of Dragons]]'', a new force rises to threaten [[Tyria (world)|Tyria]]. As you fight back against [[Kryptis]] invaders from [[the Mists]], you'll uncover the answers to mysteries that have haunted Tyria from the time of the original ''[[Guild Wars]]''. Ancient rivalries come into play—the world is at risk. While we've relied on the aid of our allies in many adventures to date, it's time for you to find your footing in a darker, more mysterious side of the world.

Now that the [[Elder Dragon]] cycle is "over," Tyria is blood in water. The Mists are watching.

{{quotation|[https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/combat-in-guild-wars-2-secrets-of-the-obscure/ Official website]|Up until now, you could only equip each elite specialization’s weapon by locking yourself into that elite specialization’s trait line. But what if you could charge into the fray as a hammer-wielding holosmith or control the battlefield as a firebrand with a longbow?}}

* Every [[profession]] can now use their elite specialization weapons without having the corresponding elite specialization equipped or trained.
** {{g}} [[Guardian]]: [[Axe]] (main hand), [[sword]] (off hand), [[longbow]]

{{quotation|[https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/combat-in-guild-wars-2-secrets-of-the-obscure/ Official website]|To round off our combat systems updates, we’re granting each profession proficiency with an additional weapon. Like we said earlier: getting to play with a new weapon and changing out your first five skills is one of the most impactful parts of an elite specialization for many players. The weapons and weapon skills we’re introducing to each profession in Guild Wars 2: Secrets of the Obscure are meant to satisfy that same itch of a new skillset—we just focused on making these weapons fit in with the existing trait lines.}}

* Nine new weapons, one for every [[profession]], are expected to be made available with the second major release after launch.
