Skill
From Guild Wars 2 Wiki
The skill system will be modified. There will be fewer skills than the original, with the aim for quality rather than quantity.[1] Skill animations and graphics are being improved so should provide a clearer indication of the range and effect of a skill as it is used.
As in Guild Wars, characters will have access to only a limited number of skills at a time, [2] however there is no information on how this will operate within persistent areas.
