Guild Wars 2

I think it was mentioned on here a long time ago, and thus buried so deep I couldn’t find it, but it would be good for a skill bar slot, or quick slot for at least 1 consumable so you don’t have to open your bags, search through them for that one consumable you know you have but just can’t find, all while in the middle of a fight. Having the ability to either hotkey it or put it in an extra slot would be immensely helpful. I know they wanted to keep the interface clean and simple, and honestly the last thing I want is the screen looking like the regurgitated mess of WoW and other similar games with 8 billion skill bars, but 1 or 2 slots off to the side or above our current skills bars wouldn’t be so bad and would make it so much more convenient and smooth when trying to use consumables.

+1

I almost never use consumables because I forget they’re there. A consumable skill slot (default bound to “-” i.e. the key next to zero on standard 104-key keyboards) which lists all consumables in your inventory when you click the arrow would be great.

Yes, please! I either don’t use them because I forget they’re there or am trying to scramble to find something during a fight or other inopportune time. Love this idea!

I really liked the way TSW handled this. From your invo you could create small little bags that you could choose to constantly show on your screen and lock it in place. This means you can create a small bag of consumables to show on your screen, but only when you want them to be there. Also this means that not everyone is forced to have an extra slot if they don’t want it

We absolutely need this. I always forget to use them^^

now that I see I’m not the only one, pass the word along and let’s get some more attention on this :-D

Agreed, this would be fantastic. I like what EliteZ mentioned, being able to have a small bag with a couple consumables/gathering tools for easy swap would be fantastic and save me keeping my inventory open all the time.

I definitely agree. Having some sort of slot for consumables would be great.

Great Idea!

Please add hot key/ skill slot for consumables.

Yes please, bring it on!

100% agreeeeeeeeeee.

15 characters, ahem.

Bumping this, hoping one day we’ll get some Red in here

You know how “~” flips the first 5 skills, I would not mind another key assigned to the other skills on the other side, that way you could assign up to 5 items….and each should have a purpose: 1 for mini pets and/or everlasting tonics, 1 for Food, 1 for Potions, 1 for either o the tuning crystals, sharpening stones or maintenance oils and the elite spot would be for activating your toy , like the riding broom.

Anything that is added to these slots would be treated as if the slots where the inventory spot and upon using deposit all collectables would not remove them from the bar or place them into the collections tab of your bank.

/signed, need the consumables slots

I’ll second this motion.

Each of my characters keeps several types of food for different types of activities in its inventory. It would be a nice quality of life improvement to have a slot on the UI or a hotkey rather than opening the inventory, especially in a mob dense area.
