Hello

Me and my friend duo Arah a lot and we invite people to join us at the final boss. Although lately we’ve been having problems with people joining our group and kicking us from our own party.

So I was wondering if it was allowed to create another account and run a second client on my PC and put it in the party as a 3rd person, to assure we can’t get kicked by outsiders.

Thank you.

Yes. They only care if you control two accounts simultaneously with one key press to activate skills/movement/etc for both accounts. Play each account separately and you’re fine.

Be careful what you ask for
ANet may give it to you.

Edit: guild wars 2 is very cpu bound and will dramatically affect performance running 2 client from the same cpu.

If you can afford it, maybe buy a low quality computer to put a free to play account on. If all that account needs to do is stand in a corner somewhere and hold a party slot, then a budget/second hand computer might be good enough.

Fortunately I have a laptop laying around that runs GW2 just fine. Thank you for the suggestion!
