Guild Wars 2

Hello, everyone!

I’m just wanting to suggest a very basic, simple quality-of-life item that would greatly benefit the following player bases:

Roleplayers
Those with Legendary weapons/armor
Those with animated weapons (Kasmeer’s staff, any torch, etc.)
Those who simply want to have their weapons drawn.

Basically I notice that our characters automatically stow weapons after a mere 25 seconds, regardless if it was a willing draw (i.e. hitting the hotkey) or a forced draw (i.e. being attacked). Other games (WoW, SWTOR, etc.) allow an individual to keep a weapon drawn when it is willingly drawn, and stow it at your leisure. This would be a very basic fix that would just be a great addition and have no downsides whatsoever. In addition, there is next-to-no reason whatsoever to automatically stow your weapons.

If, for some reason, the engine does not support indefinitely-drawn weapons, just extend the timer to something like an hour or so. Few people would want their weapons drawn for much longer than that, and if they do, it’s more convenient to do it every hour rather than every 25 seconds.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I hope we see this very soon!
