This may be a dumb question but I don’t see it in the keybind option. How do I deploy the Function gyro?

Press F when targeting the downed player (enemy or ally).

Do I have to unmap F as my interact key?

No, your interact changes if you are targeting the player and the trait is off-cooldown.

Mine doesn’t seem to work… I switched my interact key to “g” and when I see a fallen ally and target them I get no prompt (Unless I’m beside them, then I get down and revive like normal)

Have you gotten it to work? I have the buff; it says it’s available for activation!

Works fine when it comes to downing dudes in PvP. Just played some PvE and had the issues you describe.

You need to be at range, target the downed player (downed, not dead!) and press your interact key (default F).

It is a very small range gap, you need to be above the normal res range but closer than 750 units. The downed ally also have to be safe so your function gyro don’t die instantly, but also in truble so that there are any reason to use it. You need to click them to use it so they can’t be covered in other players, npcs or enemies.

I don’t think that kinda of situation exists, but if you ever find it, make sure you scream it out in all caps because nobody will notice that you just saved them with your amazing class mechanic.

^Thats the thing, the few moments you actually use it, you dont need it and its more of a fancy “tauntkill”. Most of the time you just stomp as normal and move on because thats more reliable. And then it still got that horrid 30 sec recharge.

Atleast for reviving it gets to work, stomping is out of the question as of now

It works for me on players in WvW but not on NPC’s (like Supervisors)

HAHA, so that was the objective! Stronghold! Now I get it.
Very useful and gamechanging, yeah.

Double click on friend or foe works and may be quicker when selecting allies.

It just doesn’t work. They need to make it so that instead of not working, it does work. Having a function Gyro that does not work is no better than not having one at all.

I find that if you have Player Names toggled off in your options, Function Gyro is a lot harder to use. I turned it on and it became much easier. I don’t know if that’s your problem, but it was definitely mine.

I found the Function Gyro in open world PvE useless. Maybe I have to get used to the functionality but I wasn’t impressed at all.

Function gyro and the minors are just hilariously bad. I understand why they didnt show it on the stream. They KNOW its not acceptable right now but they waited far too long to get this spec programmed and designed.
