Guild Wars 2

I’m sick of having to alt-tab and go to the wiki to figure out what half this s**t does. Especially consumables.

Working on my storyline today, I come across a vendor (Agent Varbb at Waste Hollows Waypoint in Malchor’s Leap) who sells a “Power Matrix.” Mouseover description:
“Double-click to consume. Consumable.”

It seems half the consumables in this game have that description. At least the wiki explains: “Summons an environmental weapon that will detonate at your location.”

I agree, most tooltips in this game are utter crap, give NO usable numerical information and feel like they have been dumbed down for 12 year old idiots.
For example, the warrior’s signets “Heals you over time”, “Improves power”, “improves precision”, etc.

What the kitten is that useless crap supposed to tell me?

Reminds me of WoW and not in a good way.

Wat.. All you have to do is mouse over the signet and it tells you exactly how much power precision or healing they do. How are you missing this.

I am talking about passive effects.

None of the passive effects in the game, like regen, show usable numeric info, like how much they actually heal passively and what intervals, or how much power or precision or adrenaline recharge signets give, etc.
