It's a big number of hero points! 

 

Colin's first post:

Unlocking your elite spec is a training line in your training panel that costs hero points. You do need to have trained all the existing training lines before you’re allowed to put hero points into your elite spec.

If you’ve got all the hero points in the existing game you’ll have enough to train about half the elite specialization training line on launch day. The rest you’ll need to earn in the jungle or via the new system Tyler outlined yesterday from WvW. The number of points to fully train your elite spec is higher than other training lines – but hero challenges in the jungle are worth 10 points each, so it’s not actually as big as it appears.

 

Colin's second post:

It’s 400 points total to unlock everything in an elite spec training line – I just can’t remember off hand how many points folks have currently if they have done all the existing ones, but it’s right around 200. The rest you’ll need to earn in jungle to unlock the deeper skills/traits/etc. in the training line.

You only need 60 hero points to begin using your elite spec, the points you spend after that continue to unlock more skills, traits, skins, etc.

Again, hero challenges are worth 10 points each in the jungle. So no you don’t need to go do 200-400 jungle challenges.

Prior to HoT launch, the max number of hero points we can get (assuming you've already bought all the existing traits and skills) is 214.  This number includes the ones in the WvW maps (including the ones in the borderlands maps that are going away in the wee hours of Friday morning).  Also 1 in from a home instance Krait obelisk.

If anyone has characters that need the home instance hero point, hit me up!  You can use the one in my home.

After HoT launch, you'll be able to get hero points in the jungle, and also via WvW using the new rank-up currency.

I assume I need the home instance hero point as I didn't know such a thing existed. =/

Will look for you.... thanks! :)

If it ain't fixed, break it until it is.
