In GW1, I had the ability to bind forward with a left mouse click. Sadly, this option is no longer available. What needs to be put in place is this: The ability to use the left or right mouse button to click a random spot on the ground at any distance and have the character run to that spot and stop. In GW1, that was possible by planting a flag there. But, I am told that this is not possible. Now, why GW2 would force me to use the keyboard, or worse, to 2-handed force me to use the mouse AND the keyboard, is beyond me. Now, I ask: what in the world is wrong with just simply pointing at a spot I want to go to and clicking the mouse, be it the left or right button, and having my character move there and stop? Is that too simple? Or is it too hard for the programmers to program this in? Without this function, the game is much less enjoyable.

you can bind autorun to a button on your mouse. sure its not the same thing as point and move, but its relatively hands free.

sorry, forrae, but i’m not talking about auto-run. i want to point to a spot on the gound, left click it and have the character run to it and stop. in GW1, that was the known as planting a flag and moving to it, then stopping. when you speak of auto-run, that means i must use a keystroke or whatever to stop, which creates double work. but, to follow up on your suggestion, i do not see a left click option to set to auto-run or anthing else. when i go in to try to bind a key, i click the left mouse and nothing binds…what am i missing?

Sorry but click to move would really not work in this game.

You need to (more or less) use the keyboard and mouse in this game to be able to move, attack and dodge all at the same time.

Thats just how the game is designed.

Also, basic mouse buttons cant be reconfigured in GW2, its by design. I ask myself why everyday. Just like we cant unbind ability/item links on shift or ctrl.
