Guild Wars 2

Just wondering during the 1min30sec period b4 the match starts can I switch character while keep same profession?
I have several of the same profession but with different builds for different circumstances.

No, when dishonor will hit you will get the debuff (AFAIK)

Really? That doesn’t make sense if I switch char but keep same profession why would I be penalized?

How are they going to control that?

You either have switching or you do not regardless of profession

We don’t

I am talking about before the match starts not during. It just to save me from constantly changes builds.

because going to the character select screen gives you dishonor, regardless of who you log back in on.

You could come back on the same character, you’ll still get the loss and dishonor.

and being able to swap chars , to a premade pvp build that could Knowingly have an Advantage over the classes in your match up will cause inbalance for the match up.

its a preventative to stop matches being fixed in this way also i think,

Maybe i’m wrong, but i remember a dev said if you switch the same prof before the match starts, you have no penalty.

BTW i ’d like to know the exact answer for this.

Umm I could just change my build before the match starts so I dont think that is the reason.

I read the same thing but I would just like some clarification just to be sure.
