=== Profession Lock ([[ArenaNet talk:Guild Wars 2 suggestions/profession lock|Discussion]])===

A '''profession lock''' on [[weapon]]s and certain [[skill]]s on your second profession.

Someone with a secondary profession should not be able to use weapons and attack skills that are not of their primary profession, due to the fact that they are not "trained" to use the weapons of that profession. Hence, they cannot use attack skills of locked weapons (i.e. a [[Monk]] cannot use [[Dervish]] [[Scythe Mastery]] skills.

;Weapon Handicap (Variant)

If the ''profession lock'' is not used, then a '''weapon handicap''' may be implemented on weapons not used by the player's primary profession.

If you're using an attack skill of your secondary profession, it would deal less damage and has a higher chance to miss.

; Why this is a good idea
*  Primary attributes on secondary professions are locked, so why not weapons?
*  Primary professions are more valued, and you can still use non-attack skills.
;Why it may not work out
*  Kills a significant amount of player builds
*  Defeats the purpose of using the secondary profession.
*  A profession already exists.
