Guild Wars 2

So, after camping the server list for 3 hours and finally see that Crystal Desert went from Full to High, I immediately attempted to transfer. After confirming the transfer it logged me out, I waited a minute and then logged back in only to see I am still on Stormbluff Isles, and now the server is full again. Is this a bug or something?

I come from WoW (Suprising, eh?) and compared to WoW, targeting seems to be alot more awkward and messy in this game. Maybe its an option im missing, or maybe I need to learn how to tab target more, but alot of times when I click an enemy with a large model and small hitbox (Such as the shatterer) I end up just clicking nothing and losing my target. And when in combat with multiple enemies (especially if they are small) I will often click one enemy and end up targeting another miles away from it (Or atleast it seems like it)

Even when I tab target, it will often target an enemy around the corner, or behind me, when my intended target is in front of me. Auto target with abilities helps with this alot, but I tend to leave it off during dungeons, and forget to turn it back on (Or maybe im just lazy)

Does anyone else feel the same way? In general, the targeting in this game seems awkward, clunky and unreliable. Its not so bad that its unplayable, and by now I have figured out some tricks to overcome the iffy targeting, but I am just wondering if anyone else feels the same way or if I am just looking into it too much?

Let me clarify what I am suggesting

The Problem: Elite skills have massive cooldowns. Being unable to change the elite skill (Outside of combat) while the cooldown is ticking down, is a nuisence. I am no means suggesting that we should be able to change abilities in combat, I am talking outside of combat. If we were able to change our elite abilities while it was cooling down, outside of combat, it would result in alot less down time and waiting.

The Actual Suggestion: Change it so we are able to change the ability (OUTSIDE OF COMBAT) while it is cooling down. The cooldown would still be ticking down from the last time you used it. At least this way you wont be stuck with a useless Elite ability in a fight that would benifit much more from another elite ability, because somebody was impatient. Yes, the cooldown would still be there, but at least you will have your ability when the cooldown ends.

This is just a suggestion, I am only level 53 and have one character, so maybe I don’t understand how this would be a bad thing, but I atleast hope that I have clearly explained the suggestion here.

Thank you for the discussion.

PS: I have little to no expereince in PvP, so I dont know how PvP is effected by this. Please keep this in mind, this is only a pet peeve I have when running dungeons.

Often times in dungeons, we will have to wait for someones 200 second cooldown just so they can change it for the next fight, why not allow us to change at least the elite ability, while keeping the cooldown? That way, there is no waiting for a fight just so some mesmer can change from his Mass Stealth to his Timewarp. At least then the elite ability will be ready to use at some point in the fight.

Thanks
