Guild Wars 2

i was told to hold alt… left click item you want to split

drag it to a free slot

and let go of alt then the mouse… and a window pops up and you type in the number you want to split

this has never worked for me and is really hindering me

need help!!!

Make sure that you hold down alt button FIRST (before doing anything else) and keep it held down whilst you click and drag and drop, only then do you release the alt button.

If you do it right, you’ll see the box that prompts you for the amount to split.

The alt key is a button that often doesn’t get used much so you may not be aware of the fact that it’s not working. So I’d also suggest that you check that your alt button is in fact functioning. Maybe assign it as the weapon / attunement swap button, just to test.
