Rules Update: Superior Traits

It is also worth mentioning that part of the plan is that tier 1 higher lists will be made much easier to learn. That is to say that their accessibility will be dramatically increased. No one should ever find themselves hopelessly stonewalled from learning them as the number of teachers for them will be far more abundant and diverse than they are currently.Tier one higher lists are the basics; master warrior,rouge,caster.

Since promotional skills are unique and usable once per event, will they be superior or remain lesser defenses?

These will stay superior.

Since the smith promo is not a skill but an item and you can't obviously make the skills the item possess have the superior trait, do our items stay as is or will a single superior trait be included with them in some form or another?

The unique ability would more than likely be considered a Superior skill.

Ah, so in my case, I'm boned. Gotcha.

As promo skills are considered Superior, how is Holy Word handled when it is used to grant an attack which is not Superior?

Specifically, Holy Word - Blade of Victory

Holy word is not an attack or a defense. It is an augmentation. You huddle everyone together and still give out a dozen+ blade of victories. Blade of victory is non-superior.
