I checked with some other ranger and it seems to be problem on my end. If anybody could for starters point out where game is hiding config files I would very much appreciate it.

Description:
When I’m swapping pet with keyboard key I get AoE pointer as well (big green circle). In my case it’s F4 at the moment, every time I press F4 I get AoE pointer – regardless if pet swap is on cd or not. AoE pointer after clicking on ground have no effect.

What I did to fix it:
- Removed game files from Documents/Guild Wars 2 folder
- Uninstalled game, removed any files if left after, removed every entry about guild wars 2 from registry
- Reinstalled game to different folder – problem still exist.
- Changed key from F4 to C – both keys produce same effect.
- Restored controls to default

It’s very annoying, each time I swap pet I think I hit arrow barrage by mistake.

Here is pic.

Anybody? It’s game breaking to me and last time I was trying to get help from ArenaNet it took them almost 2 weeks to respond to my ticket and response was incorrect.

That’s the first time I hear about this problem (and there are plenty of rangers in my guild).

I can only recommend at this point to check if all your drivers are up to date. Perhaps you should also post your Game Advisor report.

I also believe there is an option in the game settings that allows you to disable those green AoE circles altogether.

Option you talking about turns off AoE rings that show up on ground after casting spell.

Funny thing is that this problem exist ever since I created my engineer and another thing is that AoE pointer matches with size of engineer potion pointer (throw option). It may be bug that is triggered when unusual conditions are met. Therefore I will be single out on it and it wont be fixed. With all bugs and now this on top of it Im really close to quit game all together so I may delete my engineer just to see if it has anything to do with it

Here is an update so you can take a look:

I also compared barrage skill pointer to this bugy pointer associated with pet swap. Every time I hit key for pet swap (even when its on cd) it pop this smaller green circle.

I can confirm the AoE pointer, I triggered it by F1 (pet attack) and when it appears once you can’t get rid of it .. whenever you want to send your pet to attack something – nothing happens .. only the AoE pointer appears and pet does nothing, you need to restart the game at least or do a fix explained above.

I can confirm the bug as i said. I hope noone will ignore it.

Problem solved I found out what is causing this thing.

For example those are your utility slots “HEAL/ 1 / 2 / 3 / ULT”
Your profession skills are set: F1, F2, F3, F4 – default.
If you set Prayer of Kormir skill to:
- slot 1: F2 Will cause AoE pointer
- Slot 2: F3 Will cause AoE pointer
- Slot 3: F4 Will cause AoE pointer

I’m using F1-F4 as example if you set them to A,B,C,D problem will still exist.
