Guild Wars 2

I recently had a discussion with one of my guildees who has been playing GW2 a lot. I continue to go back to GW1, and I find my main reason for doing so is the static skill bar. Not being able to set my skills where I want to use them still discourages me from playing the game. Don’t get me wrong GW2 has a great deal that are improvements over what was available in GW1 – and I like those changes in movement, trade, etc. I like the open world interaction as well, although I miss vanquishing – which I was doing long before there was a hard mode. However, not being able to rearrange my skill bar just irks me. Now my guildee blames this on my being ‘Old’ and “creative” and says that young people don’t want to think or be creative. According to my guildee the skill bar is static so that people can’t accidently hit the wrong skill because they moved it? What keeps one from hitting the wrong skill because they hit the wrong skill without moving it?

At any rate, is there a mod or anything that would change this one aspect of GW2 that makes it undesirable for me to play? In every game I play, I place my skills in order from center out – near my index fingers for skills to be activated first. The skills on the right side of the bar I usually activate with a mouse, so that is not as critical, but the ones I activate by hand are all in the wrong place for me. Is there something that would allow me to say reverse the order of the weapon skills in the first 5 slots?
