Additional Information
Previously, Weapon Specialization was split into three skills (wspec1, wspec2, wspec3) that acted in an identical fashion but only applied to a specific weapon base. With the PSM Phase 3 update, the skill applies to all weapons within a given weapon skill.
Ranks in this skill are no longer a prerequisite for
Weapon Bonding or
Holy Weapon (1625).
