Guild Wars 2

I really don’t know if there has been any topics about this, but I couldn’t find any. Sorry if I’m wrong.

This a petition/suggestion for ANet to include Build templates as GW1 had. Having the possibility to change traits and skills anytime outside combat, this would be a great addition to gameplay as it would make much comfortable to switch traits for specific situations.

In case anyone doesn’t know what is this build template thingy, in GW1 you could save your skills/attributes (similar to traits) into a list of builds and then load one of them instead of changing each value individually. Even better, these builds were saved a simple string which allowed them to be shared, and you could copy paste them in chat so other people could see your entire build with just one click. (example http://gwpvx.gamepedia.com/Build:Me/E_PvE_Panic_Mesmer )

For gw2 a build template system would be nice for traits and utility skills. I’m sure many will appreciate.
Thanks

There have been frequent threads on this, but I have only seen 1 dev response on the forums to date. The answer was that the feature patch and the changes it brought the game a step nearer to having build templates.

Hello,

I think you are not alone,
a lot of players on reddit, and myself would really appreciate this:

Sometimes I’m running dungeons, and then I go to WvW, and I want to go with the zerg, and I need to run and change traits, and abilities.

Or Depending of the parties running dungeons, I change traits, or for different bosses/situation, etc.

Please, think about it!

This thread has dozens just like it (I created one almost a year ago actually). 100% agree and would love to see. Hopefully they are working on it. I’d pay gems for it (assuming it was account bound). Just make it happen!

Going into WvW to run in a zerg…
changing gear to pvt with traits/trinkets – 2 minutes

Switch to roaming with a few friends in WvW…
changing to dire w/traits/trinkets – another 2 minutes

Being able to change between game modes with the click of a button… timeless

I’m so pro-build templates, and I’m 90% sure so is ArenaNet. Just have to give them some time to put it into action.

Can’t wait.
