Guild Wars 2

is there a trick or an option to enable “use all” on a stack? I think that would be nifty.. it gets kind of tiring using a bunch of luck, there should be a use all option if there isn’t one already. I think this could also be handy for opening bags (maybe the option opens all the bags it can until we get encumbered)

Welcome to Click Wars 2.

i use autohotkey to register each ‘click’ of my mousewheel as a left-click. I ran into two issues doing that, though:
-The game will suddenly decide that you’re actually trying to scroll your inventory rather than click the stack
-I would randomly link the stack of items in chat (???)

It still works well, though.

Have you leveled your artificing? That enables transmorgifying lots of Essences of Luck blue to higher end Essences of Luck, which will be less clicking.

Also, I bound a key to act as a double-click, so for a stack of luck it’s 125 key strokes instead of 250 double clicks.

Like Narrrz, I use AutoHotKey to rebind scroll down to function as a single mouse left click to eat them quickly.

This is the script that I use for this behavior:

• Download and install AutoHotKey.
  It is a program that is useful for making individual scripts to make custom keybinds. You can even have different scripts with different keybinds for your different characters.
• Create a text file (myfilename.txt) and add this text into it and then save it:

#NoEnv
#SingleInstance Force
SetTitleMatchMode, 3
#IfWinActive, Guild Wars 2

; “MButton” is the customizable key used to toggle normal scroll wheel function on and off

MButton::Suspend
WheelDown::Click left

• Rename the .txt extension on it to instead be .ahk
• Double-click/execute this script prior to or during a GW2 game session to bind wheel-down (pulling toward you) as being left-mouse-click. It will only affect the mouse wheel while GW2 is the active window (so mouse wheel still works fine outside of the game even with it running and active)
• Clicking your mouse scroll wheel in suspends/disables the script so you can zoom in/out and scroll as normal. Click the mouse wheel in again to reactivate it.

So:

• Executing the script binds mouse wheel down to function as left click only in GW2
• Mouse scroll wheel click toggles disabling the script so it scrolls normally again or enabling it so scroll down functions as a left click

You can also customize the activation/deactivation (suspend) key. You can find all of the different key names you can use to replace Mouse scroll click here:

• https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/KeyList.htm

I also highly recommend Endless Soul’s suggestion to acquire artificer so you can promote and consolidate all of your lesser lucks into fewer stacks.

Easy mode:

Press alt + shift + numlock

mouse over your stack

press numpad+ 250 times

It’s significantly easier than mouse clicking, easier on your hardware, and no tricks or extra software required. It’s a Windows accessibility feature called mouse keys. You can go in the accessibility menu and switch mouse keys to function while numlock is off, so once you turn the feature on with alt+shift+numlock you can leave it on always and toggle it on and off with numlock. numpad/ numpad* and numpad- toggle through which key numpad+ is mirroring, so if it’s not working you probably pressed one of those on accident. There’s a system tray icon that visually shows you the status of mouse keys, it changes depending on how you have it set both with button configuration and on/off status. It’s not too hard to figure out what all the visual cues mean.

I get artifactor on all characters with spare crafting slots. For characters that don’t have it, I just send it to the bank so I can do it when I log on a character that does.

Be aware, you don’t have to level up Artificer to refine Luck. Just have the discipline. It’s also easier, I feel, to not let Luck stack up too much, but everyone has their preferences.

Luck may be a crafting component for Scribes….one never knows!

Good luck.

2 hours since this was posted and no deletion and infraction? I am impressed, mods must have gone soft O.o

Anyway, autohotkey is a great tool for things like this yes. You dont even need all that, just rebind left mouse to a key. When you hold down that key, it will chew through the stack like theres no tomorrow. Works for mf and bags. Great for avoiding to break your mouse. If Anet cant fix the problem with simple UI changes and QoL improvements, I guess we have to do it ourselves.

I have posted this option for eating stacks of consumables over a dozen times over the years and even in threads with devs conversing, as well as offering other AHK rebind scripts. There is nothing ‘illegal’ about it and it is a simple key rebinding script, so why would there be any kind of infraction or deletion? … And, yes, you can change the key that is rebound to a letter key instead of scroll down – I simply offered the framework with an example, users can customize it however they like to fit their preference…

Just remember the policy for macros is one one key-press must result in only one action. In the above example I believe it follows this rule as a single mouse wheel click results in a single action.

indeed cause technically the mouse double click is only one action

you can see this fact also on the already mentioned windows mouse mode.

to program a macro that opens with one action (= one click by yourself) 10bags (= macro do some action 10 times automatically) is forbidden

Haha then you must be lucky or mods hate me. I have been infracted at the mere mentioning of the possibilities to rebind your keys via macro.

sweet, thanks for all the feedback. I was avoiding artificer for some reason, i knew you could refine luck there just wanted to know if there was another way and I got my answer! but hey Anet, if you’re watching, maybe consider adding that QoL feature for us?

<3

YASSS!! THEY LISTENED! THANK YOU ANET! DAT QoL doe

You could try the right click consume all option they added for luck.

Abit late on the uptake people =)

You guys, this thread was begun before this was implemented. Dates are on the top right of each post. SMH.
