Guild Wars 2

With the upcoming content update in april regarding trait reseting anywhere, why not add a trait preset option.. would really make the whole system a lot more useful for players who use multiple builds like myself. Lots of people have WvW/PvE and World boss builds and having an option to quickly select a trait preset with the click of a button would make the system a lot more useful, of course i love the idea of being able to re-trait anywhere but having that option would make the system much more enjoyable and less of a hassle to go though in the middle of a dungeon/event. Thoughts?

That is basically templates(like in GW1). The devs have already agreed on multiple occasions that it would be a good idea but it’s just a matter of priorities.

Only if it doesn’t cut out another gold sink.

Bump, Want to see more input great replies so far.

Fishing for replies, eh? Sure, I’ll bite.

Yes, absolutely yes this should be a thing. All too often I’m hopping from soloing, to dungeon, to WvW, to soloing and I have to reselect traits, skills, etc. I liked the system in GW1 where you could save a build with a name and then just select from a drop down menu. Would like to see that again.

But please, not the build code system. Maybe that is the best way to do it, but I thought it was annoying. But if that’s what it takes, then I will deal with it.

Well, this thread is meaningless. They said in last Ready Up livestream that new system is the first steps to templates. I think next feature release(After April 15, maybe next year) will introduce template system

Dev comment in spvp forum last week said the are working on templates but it won’t be ready for April 15th. I’m sure if you look through dev comments you will see the one I’m talking about.

… store far less data inside templates when those happen.

THIS excites me Are we going to be able to store templates? That would really be a big big step!

No ETA on templates. However, the new build tech brings us muuuuch closer than before.
