Guild Wars 2

If I was given one gold every time I was on my way to a downed player marked on my mini-map who Way Pointed before I reached him, I’d have more than enough to afford the Tier 3 armor I’ve been eyeballing. A system allowing us to clicked a downed player icon on our mini-maps to alert the downed player help is incoming would be very handy.

I wish. Even as the downed player, knowing help is on the way would be a boon.

Completely agree with this.

I’ve taken to sometimes announcing that help is on the way in map chat, though with only limited effectiveness.

I would also like to add that a player in the downed state should be able to have access to the minimap, I was trying to fight/fend off a group of dredge and also trying to ping my location on the minimap, while going down and rallying rapidly. Very annoying.

That’s who this suggestion is for, the downed player. The would-be medic loses a few seconds of his/her time if the downed player Way Points; no big deal. The downed player who Way Points with help right around the corner loses a bit of coin and the time it takes them to run back to their desired location.

Yes! I get so disheartened when I’m running to players in need of help and they port away.

Or even worse when I’m laying there incapacitated and just on the horizon I can see someone fighting mobs, but I can’t read their name, and they don’t see me.
