Guild Wars 2

Warrior here. I make frequent use of 7 different weapons depending on the boss/ situation at hand.

I’ve tried using weapon/armor bags, invisible bags, junk bags etc. to try keep it all separated but they just keep getting lost in between all my loot. So I have to stop and search for what I need when my bags get fuller.

This is where I wish there was some kind of action bar on my ui where I just click to equip instead of opening my hero pane/ bags each time. Or some sort of favorite option that can help me quickly identify the items I need. I use the orrian gear so their icons look the same as most of the low quality items.

I can’t be the only guy having to deal with this so I need some pro tips. Thanks.

I personally dont use that many different weapons per profession. I got 3 level 80
’sa. My engineer always uses the rifle (plus offcourse kits). My guardian switches the secondary weaponset sometimes from scepter/shield to staff. My Ele switches from scepter/dagger to staff from time to time.

Still I know it is annoying that when switching from 1h/1h to 2h it means that the offhand goes to the top instead of the safebox but the the only true solution is to use special bags (I reckon that an exotic only bag from the mysts is the best solution, provided all your 7 weapons are exotics).

On my Warrior I use Greatsword/Hammer and keep 1 of every other weapon a Warrior can equip in my Inventory. At the very top

Longbow/Rifle/Sword/Axe/Mace/Warhorn/Shield. I got organized by ranged weapons, 1 handed weapons, then off-hand weapons. When I take a swap a weapon, usually my Hammer for a ranged weapon, I make sure I re-equip said weapon when I’m done with the one I swapped to so it goes back to its spot.

Can be tedious but I don’t swap out my weapons that much

I find a exotics only bag at the bottom helps, as long as everything you wield is exotic. This will, of course break when ascended weapons come out.

Also use the character screen and right click on the weapon to swap so they replace each other. One/two handed weapons is annoying of course.

That was my original method but I sometimes swap to having 2 × 1h+1h or 2x 2h+2h. I’ll be honest I didn’t know about the exotic only bag. I bought one and put it right at the bottom. It’s working well for now, keeping them separate. But yeah, until ascended weapons come out..

Get them nerfed like shortbow then they are really easy to manage, because you just salvage them…
