Guild Wars 2

To the address of the naysayers regarding this request:

once again it is amazing to see how people assume to know what would be the best solution for others. The ability to swap the hotkeys is an essential in every game now since a long time. It is useful and it makes sense. And I’m sure it would not need thaaaat much of developers workpower that the rest of the development would fail for months…but who knows.

It’s also not done by simply reassigning the keys, since many of us play more than one toon/class but there is no keybind saving per character.

Simply let the people who wants to have this feature have it – and when it’s there and YOU don’t need/want it – simply don’t use it – but refrain from telling others what’s best for THEM

How long would it need for people to rush through “new content” and be bored again, when they already rushed through the existing content and already bored yet?

I had this issue with an axe, nice look in the database, but when I bought it, it shows up as an ugly “standard” axe.
Since this when I want to see how an item from the TP looks like, I go first here http://www.gw2spidy.com/searchform to search the item, on mouseover the item ID appears and this I enter here http://streamchan.com/gw2id.html
Submit and c/p the cryptic result from the second field into the chat line (whisper to yourself to not confuse others too much), where you can r-click and preview it.

I’ve experienced this now too, have Sigil of Bloodlust on my axe and sword, so I get 2 stacks of Power with every kill. And I have Sigil of Corruption on my Rifle, which brings 1 stack of Corruption on kill – BUT – only one kind of stacks will pile up, and it will be determined from the weapon that makes the first kill. Just now I killed 7 mobs with the Rifle, got 7 stacks of Corruption, but when I switch to axe and sword, it will not add stacks of Power from the Bloodlust Sigil. And vice versa. I will not benefit from Corruption Sigil AFTER killed the first mob with sword and axe and switch over to rifle. Until down I will be stuck with the effect applied by the first kill. This should indeed mentioned in tooltips, to avoid wasting money in useless sigils.

Just re-read major parts of this thread and made a decision, with a heavy heart. I’m giving up to report botters, because the fact nothing has been changed for weeks except it became worse, no one from Anet shows a real reaction here EXCEPT measures and warnings against players for mentioning bot names or locations (lol…) gives me the certainty the way the reports go is not Report—→Customer Support—→Dev but Report—→Trash Bin.

I also give up playing at this point and just reactivated my subs on 2 other games, which I had cancelled to play only GW2!
I will check back here every now and then to look, if anything has been done regarding the bot infestation, but to be honest, I’ve lost the hope things will change.

And no, this is not neither rage quitting nor out of pure spite, I’m a 54 year old and don’t tend to behave like a child, but after many years of experience in MMO gaming and also support I can’t stand any longer with the state of the game as it is at the moment.

The same bots that infested the Orchard in Queensdale more than 1 week ago, later went to the farm near the Troll Champ, last days sitting in Kessex Hills Tamini DE, today moved on to Harathi.

So they – a group of at least 8 – 10, all with silly names, half of them with the same account name except the following 4-digit number – was able to level up from the scratch to the 30s and 40s – untouched by any action from Anet? And will proably make their way up to 80 in exact the same manner – untouched, unbanned, continuing botting, annoying players, ruining the fragile economy.

The only word I’m able to find for this without becoming insulting is lack of professionality. Playing MMOs since many years, worked in 2 of them in a senior position (handling also RMT issues there), but never seen such a level of failure in getting botters under control. This is simply a slap in the face of all honest players!

Just back from work and logging in to Kessex Hills – Triskellion Vale. Same botters as yesterday, plus a group of new ranger botters running in lines. Funny, one of the botters got stuck in a loop hole, running in a triangel pattern at place. All this becomes very demotivating to me and I start thinking about playing another game.
Few years ago I worked myself in Gaming Support, we HAD an RMT Strike Force in this Game Support Crew, and it showed good results…not like it is now here…

Just playing at Triskellion Vale. There at the entrance of the village in a small plot of corn a group of about 8-10 Ranger botters with their pets sitting around, waiting for the Tamini attack waves of the DE.
They all attack together in the same pattern, get stuck in the fences of the corn patch, and when the Tamini wave is over or attacks against a Wasp or a Moa, they go back to exact the same point…always, never only one millimeter aside this place…if this isn’t scripted botting, then I really dunno…
Also just met the chain of 4-6 Warrior bots which was running around a fix train line the last 2 or 3 days in Queensdale at the farm near the Champ Troll…now those bots are in Kessex Hills…they leveled up, congratulations…soon they will move to the next zone. Also a way to get them off the players sight.

5 females – 1 Norn, 2 Human, 2 Sylvari. And even though I’m female in RL, I play some male characters in other games. But in GW2 the options for male char creation and fine tuning are kinda crude in my opinion.

I’m playing a Ranger too, and i LOVE my pets…but there are some – very rare – moments I also would like to able to constantly stow my pet.

F.e. when I’m trying to get to a Vista I prefer not to have my pet jumping around my legs, irritating me. So I stow it away…but when failing a jump and taking the slightest bit of damage – bammm, pet is back

Same issue here, me and some others around are not able to finish this, stuck at 2/3 and no Vanguards or Captain Mattox popping up…
