We want to point out this new Gamespot article with updated impressions about Nightfall, the incoming Guild Wars expansion.

"The two new professions in Nightfall are best described as holy warriors, of a sort. Strain said that the idea behind the new professions is that they offer a different kind of gameplay experience from existing professions. So, with the paragon, the idea is that you play more as a battle commander, standing off in a fight and supporting the troops with powerful abilities. The dervish, on the other hand, is a dual-wielding whirlwind of a warrior that can also take the form of the five known gods in the game. Each profession has 75 skills to unlock and select from, but how many you've unlocked isn't the key. What really matters is that you can have a "deck" of only eight skills at a time, which levels the playing field because then it becomes more a game of strategy."
