Allow skills from multiple secondary professions at once. (Discussion)
Rather than have a character with a primary profession and a single secondary profession, have characters with a primary profession and then allow them to use any skills they've learnt from other professions. For example, a warrior might have both empathy and mending on his skill bar.


 * The warrior would still have the same number of attribute points to spend.
 * The primary attributes from the secondary professions would still be unavailable.
 * Runes and armor would be based on the primary profession as now.


 * Why this is a good idea
 * Better role-playing. It doesn't make sense that a character would suddenly forget how to use Empathy just because he's started using Mending.
 * It increases the skill combinations a player can try.
 * It gives characters a reason to learn skills from less used secondary professions.


 * Why it may not work out
 * ANet may have trouble balancing the increased combinations.
 * The large number of attributes over which a player could spread their points could be awkward to manage.
 * Skills with no attribute may get abused.
 * Yea! Why the hell no?! Because it'll make people invincible! That's a farmer's heaven! NO BALANCE! Try to imagine a 55 with both Visage and Mystic Regeneration. IT'S MADNESS!
