Remove +2 path set bonus

The upcoming armor rework is a good opportunity to remove the +2 path set bonus from Sovereign/Warlord/etc., replace it with something else. The bonus is either nearly useless or mandatory depending on the class and build. It feels bad when the points aren't needed. So that players who rely on it for their build don't lose out, add +2 specialization points at rr80.

You don't lose anything if you don't need it, just mix sets.
Also, points spent in mastery tree increase power of abilities in mastery tree.

At the moment its too meta and simple removal of just them will cause way more harm then do anything good.

There are too many pointless nerfs already to ask for more

+1 but only if those points are added somewhere to RR
Would help making more mixed gearset
It's also annoying when you lose a spell because you changed 1 gear

no.. it entices build/theory crafting which is a core component of the game and one of the only fun things remaining.

Yea lets have less choice that's great idea /s
It's not like the +2 is free after all, you lose triumph proc.

@OP wrote that +2 mastery points should be given at 80rr so I don't know why ppl write that we would have less builds.
I think that it's a nice idea but it would widen the gap between 80s and rest.
