Guild Wars 2's sixth expansion is taking players to an island paradise this October, with beachside player housing and a major addition to buildcrafting

A few weeks ago, ArenaNet started teasing the next Guild Wars 2 expansion with a daily drop of mysterious icons. For the community the implication was immediately obvious: New elite specializations are being added for each character class.

As a result, the community has been eagerly speculating about who's getting what for this fourth round—attempting to match the teaser icons to the class. ArenaNet has been having fun with the mystery, even creating a chart for players to make their guesses—and there's been plenty of theorising among the game's players.
