Guild Wars 2

Hi Guysh.

I have a quick little tip for you if you want to ease your fingers for 1 spamming in the grenade kit. You can bind your auto attack to your mouse scroll wheel, it sounds a bit wierd but when you get used to it, it’s amazing. You can happily just sit in WvW or whatever scrolling away.

I still don’t get what’s so hard with autoattacks…. You don’t have to spam 1 you can simply press it again when you can throw another grenade

what external programs have u used? i mean u cant bind it to mouse wheel by default and it has the zoom feature attached to it

I use a mouse with a two extra buttons(Genius x-g510) that can be bind to keys (in this case 1), it will keep on doing 1 over and over and over until i release the button.

Before that just used Bomb kit instead of grenade because of pain

i’ve wanted to bind to autoattack to mousewheel since gw2 came out, but havent’ figured out how to do it with my logictech g700 mouse(it’s not an option with it’s setpoint software) and gw2 doesn’t allow it in their keybinding. Unless someone knows a workaround?

I bound the scroll wheel to 1 (I have a Razer mouse so I used the software that comes with it, but you might be able to do it with Autohotkey too), since there wasn’t a way to change the key bind in GW2 itself.

Unfortunately alt-tabbing to browse the web is really inconvenient because trying to scroll up turned into pressing 1 so I have to change it. And I can’t figure out how to bind shift+scroll to anything either so scrolling up and down in bank/inventory is a pain.

Uh in case anyone was still wondering, I got it to work with Autohotkey.

Make a script and type in:

+WheelUp::
Send, 1
Return

+WheelDown::
Send, 1
Return

Then run the script. When you hold shift and scroll up or down, it presses 1. I’m quite sure this is allowed, since each time you scroll it only does one action. But if anyone can confirm this, that would be nice too.

The + sign stands for shift in AHK, you can change it to control (^) or alt (!) if you want a different key.
