Guild Wars 2

I have followed the instructions on the wiki – and there is NO option to change the email address associated with my GW 2 account…

I have not been hacked but with the state of affairs I’m not taking any chances.

How on Earth do you accomplish changing the email associated with your account? I’m going around in circles and it’s maddening.

There was indeed an option to change your account name (essentially the e-mail address) a few days after the launch (I did change my account name then). This was in the same page where the password change is now. Shortly after the hacking wave it seems that this functionality has been disabled. I haven’t seen any estimated time for re-activation.

I would also like to know how to do this. I have just enabled Google 2-Step Authentication on my Gmail account and would like to change my email to that email address.

I have just tried to look for you cos i have done it and couldnt remember where, and for the life of me i cant find it on here (website)

so that leaves me thinking there was an option in the client. so i went and checked there and no, i can only think that post authenticating my email ive lost the ability to change it.

this option is temporary OFF because of hackig wave. When all will be ok they will turn it on with confirmation feture (i hope)

If that is the case, it makes no sense when Anet keeps telling us to change our emails and make certain we have secured our accounts. So now, apparently, we have to wait to be hacked, then wait 5 days to get our accounts back and still not be able to change the email address.

I really am at a loss. This is no way to help people secure and protect their accounts. You’d think at the very least we would have authenticators by now.

At Anets recommendation I did just that. Made a gmail account only to find out it’s useless because I can’t change my email.
