Guild Wars 2

To Arenanet developers;

Please allow us to have an auto repeat option available for a track. Why? I dislike the fact that when I finish a track, potential track experience points are transferred automatically to another useless reward track.

Also maybe, add an option to have the same track for all areas of the game ie: PvP/WvW/PvE etc – this would make life a little easier as sometimes people forget to change tracks that they want to farm.

Thanks.

+1. It’s been requested before but as always, it’s a great idea.

A simple check-box next to the track would suffice.

I don’t understand why it switches tracks at all when you’re on a repeatable track. It’s unnecessary.

Please .

I’d be happy if I was able to “queue” the next track.. Don’t always want to repeat the same one.

I’m sure there’s some technical reason as to why it can’t automatically restart the same track. Would be nice to be able to decide which track to go after next though, or mark some tracks as ones that you don’t want to progress on (say the dungeon tracks after getting all the dungeon skins, or the GoB track if you don’t want any more legendaries, or legacy armor track etc….) so that your extra participation at least isn’t going to a track that you have no interest in finishing.

Well, as an experienced software engineer myself I’m absolutely sure there is no technical reason why they couldn’t automatically restart the same track; it just involves a minor logic change. (At the moment when a track is finished it activates the next track. They would simply need to add a check to see if the current track is repeatable, if so then reactivate the current track rather than activating the next one. This is basically an if-else statement.)

ArenaNet may have a good reason why they like the current behaviour but I very much doubt it’s technical and I, personally, would prefer it restarted repeatable tracks rather than choosing the next one.

Even nicer would be to prevent Tracks from changing mid-fill. That happened to me, so now I check to make sure the Track I want is active quite often.

I’ve never had that happen but I have finished 2 dungeon tracks I didn’t care about due to the auto-switching after completion. That’s 40000 points better spent

I thought it was fixed, but I was looking at my WvW reward track.

Yeah, I’ve never had it happen before, but it did a couple of weeks ago. A lot of reward track XP gone into the wrong track. Sigh.
