Guild Wars 2

I hit level 6 and I am able to use my off hand.

I have multiple weapons and I see in the settings that ` is set to swap weapons.

Well, it doesn’t work. Is there a certain level I must achieve before i can swap with the keybind? Its kind of bummer having to keep bringing up the Hero icon to switch weapons.

I checked and it apparently unlocks at level 10.

Engineers and elementalists don’t get weapon swap however, as they have kits and attunements respectively.

awesome. thank you for the reply.

Unlocking your off-hand isn’t the same as unlocking your weapon swap. Offhand gives you access to the 4 and 5 skills (well, 4 skill first, then 5 a couple levels later IIRC) by equipping a second weapon in your other hand for 1H weapon types.

Weapon swap lets you equip a second set of weapons and swap between the two in combat.

As Serval said, weapon swapping doesn’t unlock until level 10. At that point, assuming your not playing as an Engineer or an Elementalist, you’ll get a second section in your equipment screen to equip your second chosen weapon.
