Guild Wars 2

Hello Anet and fellow GW2 players,

I just wanted to bring this to everyone’s attention because I feel this would be a great quality of life change if the Rangers could keybind their other 2 pet commands such as Stow pet, and the pet’s passive and defensive commands. I am not asking for this today but down the road it would help us ranger players to have a bit more reaction time and control of our pets without having to click these commands all the time.

Thank

This has been suggested time and time again. Try the suggestions forum. Then again, ANet will ignore your good advice there as well ;(

Dev response to this has often been “we don’t want to institute too much micro managment.” Of course, its not like there is a class with 24 weapon based buttons or anythin… wait elementalist who?

Yes, I need more keybinds for my Nostromo and Naga!
But seriously, why would they tell us it would be too much micro managment and then the next breath they tell us the pets are one of our main damage sources. Okay, so make them so we can use them like they are our main weapon!

What the OP is asking for is not more micromanagement, it’s just easier management of existing commands by being able to use the keyboard instead of the mouse to execute them.

On my naga I have keys bound for attack,return,agg/def and specialty ability. I am able to do whatever I need to w my pet . Although it would be killer to be able to use the other abilities at will
