Guild Wars 2

Seriously can we let the vendor sell this item in bulk at the very least. weapons take 75 and the necklace takes 3. why are we buying it one bead at a time?

Yes please! A “Sun Beads in Bulk” item would save SO much wear and tear on my wrist and my mouse. >.<

Assign the left click to the mouse wheel.

That would still involve a long time sitting there and scrolling on the mouse. And then you have to remap your mouse back afterwards. Having an in-bulk item added (and they did so for Obsidian) would be a great QoL upgrade permanently going forward.

It would be really nice to have a bulk option, for sure. Any item that requires dozens upon dozens of vendor-purchased items should have a bulk option of some sort. Its just not fun to click to buy that sort of thing one by one.

Player hacks aren’t a solution to the problems gw2 has, “Oh, just rebind your keys to other things”. They made a crafting item that you can only get one at a time (just like chef things) but in this case you have to use a merchant instead of a plant and you have to abuse the hell out of your mouse to get the huge requirement necessary to unlock even one single skin. Your mouse button (on a gaming mouse) has a MTBF of 1 million clicks. Just maxing out your luck will exceed that. We need to start REMOVING the insane amount of mice this game is destroying by doing a lot of Quality of Life improvements to the interface and functionality of these types of things.

This is like the ascended Thermocatalytic Reagent that ALL recipes require 10 of and we can buy them in packs of 10, then they added a kitten recipe that requires 5 (the new backpack). WTF? Why does everything need 10 and we can buy it in 10? Take the zero off of it. There’s literally no purpose to bulk if it is just a number. It’s nothing but an absurd gold sink that makes no sense.

doesnt binding two infusions together to make a stronger(agony) only require one thermo?

would like to buy that thermo. (and spools.) in the 100’s…. ..(I often buy 20 clicks at a time..) would prefer just 1 or 2 clicks..or 10..and have it done for a couple of weeks XD.

How about just adding a simple window where you enter the amount of items you want and click “yes”? Not sure why stuff like this wasn’t added in the big update we had in april.

The funny part is that to even make a single beaded item requires buying 75 beads = clicking 75 times. It’s just like those Icy Runestones: you’ll NEVER need less than 75, but you can only buy them One. At. A. Time.
The most I’ve ever bought at once was 12,750 beads (51 stacks; 267,750 karma). I made 10 of almost every beaded weapon. I had to fight off the attacking risen 4 times before I bought enough. It took about an hour.
I am 100% positive the reason these weapons are so profitable to make is that they are so time-and-mouse-consuming to buy the beads. Last I saw, they give about 30-40s per 1000 karma (which is one of the highest exchange rates, btw). If a bulk purchase option were added, that number would be cut in half.

You can buy Icy Runestones 10 at a time now. Like Shards.

They have to make turning Karma into Gold in some way painful….

They have to make turning Karma into Gold in some way painful….

They really don’t, though; it’s not too much trouble to drop the naive notion that karma shouldn’t be able to be converted to gold, when their game allows us to do exactly that. They ought to give us well-designed game systems that are efficient to use, such as vendors, the mystic forge, the trading post, et cetera. As-is, those systems are pretty much absolute garbage that people wouldn’t put up with in any other setting, and that people barely tolerate here because they otherwise like playing the game.

Anton the point is that outside means shouldn’t be necessary for such high volume needed items.

I guess I should have added a smiley (or winky) as I was mostly kidding….

too much clicking?

tell that to people who did the “thirst slayer” title without a makro^^

Tried, and within gw2 doesn’t work. You need to use external program wich i won’t use for various reasons.
