Guild Wars 2

PLEASE give us a different command than interact. when i drop my heal turret when someone is downed next to me and I press ’T" the key bound for taking back my turret, therefore making the CD 15 seconds, it ALWAYS starts to “finish them” instead of taking my turret back which is what i want.

because of this i die so much when 2 downed people are near me, just because of the frustration alone.

and no, i don’t want to detonate or overcharge. thanks.

Its not like we have an entire keyboard of unused keys for things like, Picking up turrets, picking up weapon bundles like warrior’s banners, picking up fallen allies, finishing off enemys, talking to npcs, gathering loot, mineing/harvest, mounting on a cannon/mortar, getting into some asura’s golem suit, or interacting with some object.

Nope, it ALL has to be the same button!

can’t you adjust the priorities yourself in the settings?

i dont want it to be the same key coglin, that’s the point, my priorities change depending on the situation

I never had any problem with it. Its actually good for me because I have to use a lot of keys already as an engineer

Just destroy it right away for the aoe heal

I would like a new button for talking to people, rezzing and picking up turrets.

I’d also like to request turrets that are picked up to have a ten second cooldown because A: they weren’t destroyed and B: does it really take that long to plop on down and press the on button?

i dont want to destroy it for the heal, i want another 5k heal 5 seconds sooner, raijnn

the removed the 5 second reduced CD

I think a simple solution to this would be to change the color of the splash that comes up for “Search”. It’s gold, like all the other commands, and when you only see it in your peripheral (in case your focus isn’t there). A lot of us (especially those of us who play on not only Engi but every other class) see that and instinctively think “oh that’s loot, better pick it up while I’m standing here” and instead pick up our turret (another issue; “Search” is not that much different from “Pick Up”!).

It’s not that they are on the same key that’s the issue, it’s that they all look the same to our eyes from the sideview.

TL;DR: Change the color of the “Search” icon to something other then gold. Also, change the word from “Search” to “Loot” and the word “Pick Up” (for turrets) to “Retract” or “Store Turret”.

no, no they didn’t

No thanks, I like having all the interactions on one key. Half the reason I like GW2 so much is I can do MORE with LESS abilities and keybinds than in other MMOs, where I need to have 30+ keybinds just play at an acceptable level.

Turrets are clunky, thats just part of being an Engineer. If you dont like it dont use Healing Turret, or dont drop them right on top of downed players.
