Guild Wars 2

I do have an 18 slot invisible bag. I might try getting some of the other bags as a short term work around.

I still dont think that makes the suggestion for some gear swapping keys less useful.
I’m sure other classes would greatly appreciate the flexibility.

The game really promotes using different strategies/skills/gear for different encounters in a dungeon. Seems reasonable to make it easier on the player to actually follow through on those design goals.

And the hero pain shows all the equipable gear in your bags which can get pretty large after running a couple of dungeons.

Maybe another approach would be to allow a filter on the Hero view to only show items that you want to swap between instead of every equipable item in your bags. That would mean having someway to flag each item you swap between…

I still think the better solution is some kind of equip gear setup ABC with key Fn.

Then disallow it in WvW or limit it in some reasonable way. Still would be a useful feature for PvE which is where I play.

Still too slow.

Also if you switch from say axe/shield to a hammer – by dragging the hammer to the axe slot. You axe goes where you would expect in your bag. The shield goes to the last available slot in your bag (and I have 6x 18 slot bags) which is constantly changing as you get loot.

Anyways, equipment management is way harder than it should be in this game. Dont get me wrong – I think its awesome there is more than 1 perfect item for each character slot depending on the situation. Just makes things harder to manage.

I have an 80 warrior and I carry around versions of all possible usable weapons (shield, hammer, axes, greatswords, rifle, etc) to use for different situations.

What I find is that for different fights (mostly in PVE dungeons) I need different weapons equiped.

So between fights I end up digging through my bags that are full of loot trying to find the right weapons to equip before the next fight.

What I want to be able to do:
Hit F1: equip hammer + axe/warhorn combo
Hit F2: equip greatsword + rifle
Hit F3: equip mace/shield + axe/axe
etc.

Trying to do this manually is a real PITA and I find myself falling behind everyone else in the group while I try to find the right weapons. And as I equip and unequip gear, my weapons get moved around in my bags. And then I end up with my rare/exotic weapons scattered all over my bags.

Note: I dont need to change my weapons in the middle of combat – just between fights.

Please make it easier to manage all of these weapon options!!! I love the options I have in each fight – I just want them to be easier to use.

A smaller request… I’ld like to be able to do something similiar with my armor. I have a full set of toughness/vit armor. A full set of zerker armor. And then a full set of magic find armor/jewelry. Depending on the fight/environment that I’m in – I’ld like to a faster way to swap armor/jewelry (again – not in the middle of fights – just in between). Basically if I’m in a group with alot of heavies – I will gear up with my zerker armor. If I’m with a bunch of squishies – I tend to put on the heavy defense set. And if I’m just doing overland events for $$, I’ll put on my MF gear. Real pain currently to juggle 3 full sets of gear.

I’m guessing I’m not the only one that juggles gear around like this…
