Spirit of Faith [HOPE] – RIP
(edited by Quick Mouse.7635)
I am in a guild that currently raids 7+ hours a day. As you can imagine, we go through a large number of superior siege blueprints in that time. Around 200 sup rams, 50 sup catapults, 50 sup ACs, and maybe a few trebs, golems and ballistas.
In order to create 1 single superior siege blueprint, you must:
Go to siege, vendor, click 2 times to buy a regular blueprint.
Go to Miyani, click 2 times to buy a Siege Master’s Guide.
Go to Mystic forge, click 2 times on regular siege blueprint, 2 times on mithril ore, 2 times on elder wood logs, 2 times on Siege master’s guide, and 1 more time to accept.
This is a total of 13 times per superior siege blueprint, not including clicking to remove items from bank and using waypoints and interacting with NPCs.
On a typical night I have clicked over 4000 times in 40 minutes to create the siege my guild needs.
This isn’t just a convenience issue, this is a health issue.
We have been asking for years for a fix to this issue. If this isn’t fixed in HoT or before, not only will I be severely disappointed that a simple fix – adding recipes to crafting stations – has not been implemented, I may even risk injury because of it.

“Funny” they added another click in the whole process with a confirmation on the siege book purchase every single time. Give us an option to buy 10/20 in once oh and also , make a siege craftstation so your customers dont get RSI for life playing this game.
They hate WvW players get used to it^^
With HoT you will prob have to sit through 15sec of mystic forge unskippable cinematic for every sup siege : )

Be careful what you wish for, they might add this!
Gw2 in general takes a lot of clicks so I believe this is a lot of strain. RSI is a real issue.
Just gonna drop this in here

Given that this was originally posted year ago, and was recently necro’d and nothing has been done, I wouldn’t hold out any hope of it ever changing.
4000 times per 40 mins = 400 clicks per minute = 400/60 = ~7 clicks per second

Now it’s been suggested, Anet will implement it and call it a ‘much asked for by players game improvement’ feature….
Imagine… If superior siege didnt exist as items.
When you drop a cata, it cost 50 sups to build.
After being built, you have the option to use it or continue building upon it with an additional 50 sups.
When fully built with 50+50 sups, its a superior cata.
I just solved a WvW inventory, health and poverty problem. I should get a Nobel prize.

It’s hilarious that such a smart and simple fix wasn’t already made canon in the game^^
4000 times per 40 mins = 400 clicks per minute = 400/60 = ~7 clicks per second
Er, no. 4000 divided by 40 is 100, not 400. 100 clicks per minute = 1.67 clicks/second.
