Guild Wars 2

can you please add an afk report tool for the players that stand afk for days in silverwastes with nothing but autocast using skills to put buffs on players as they ruin by usually rangers with the pet out standing in red base though occasionally you get them in other areas ive sent hem in a few zones doing it but mostly silverwastes

You can use ‘Botting’. It’s sort of a catch-all for unattended play.

Good luck.

lol ive seen same guy a Ranger everyday afk in diessa plateau near Rich Iron node
letting his pet doing all the work killing Flame legion to get materials.

the necros are at it in Malchor’s Leap near Doric’s Waypoint they really need to remove auto cast from the game

How about no, let’s not completely neuter the combat system to fix something with multitudes of other potential solutions.

its not killing the combat system its just making you press a single button even if they just changed the auto cast to auto attack on the 1 skill rather than having the ability to move it

Removing auto cast would mean having to press 1 every single time you wanted to make a normal attack. It’s already bad enough that the game emphasizes movement in battle while using up to 9 other skills(depending on your playstyle), having to manually perform normal attacks would drive away most of the playerbase.

Limiting auto attack to only being used on the 1 skill would solve none of the afk farm issues, so while I have no current specific objections to it there is also no reason to consider it.

which is why I said the one skill since that si the skill you generally use for a normal attack it would be no different to a default setup but you would have physically target the mob and press the button to start the chain of auto attacks without reworking the combat system
