Quick question about Deadeye!

How do you acquire it? I thought I just had to hit level 80.

Firstly you need Path of Fire. Then you need to max out all your core traits/specialisations, then you can work on using hero points you gain to start unlocking Deadeye. You can play it without every Deadeye trait unlocked though, but the other reqs are needed. The first trait will unlock the associated weapon as well

It also needs slotting into the bottom traitline/trait line 3

Further detail is here from the GW2 Wiki which is your go to for a lot of info

Training an elite specialization is basically the same as a core specialization, however there are a few requirements:

• You must own the respective expansion
• The character must be level 80
• All core skills and specializations must be fully trained

It will take 250 hero points to fully unlock an elite specialization and all points can only be obtained through completing hero challenges or purchased from a Heroics Notary. The first trait costs 30 hero points to train, with subsequent traits costing 10 points and skills costing 15 points each. Elite specializations gradually unlock the specialization specific traits and skills at the same time—there is no separation of traits and skills. Upon training the first trait you will also unlock the respective specialization collection.

Elite specializations can only be equipped in the bottom (third) specialization slot in the hero panel, which has a faint golden frame around it. Elite specialization exclusive weapons and skills cannot be equipped or used unless the respective elite specialization is also equipped. Equipping a weapon without its respective elite specialization will have its respective weapon skills greyed out—making them unusable. Removing or swapping the elite specialization will cause any currently slotted skills to be greyed out.
