Guild Wars 2

Looks like most people here in this thread haven’t encountered these 5 Distortion Mesmer’s doing their thing. The Distortion Mesmer’s that OP is talking about they are split off from the main zerg working together with them. So for the ones saying just avoid the trolls, well you don’t know what you are talking about and bottom line it’s just another cancer build.

Edit: oh and yes these 5 Distortion Mesmer’s can dish out damage and even killed few peeps.

if you contact support they will have you download ping plotter program and run a test then send results to them so do it in advance. Ingame type /ip for server ip and http://www.pingplotter.com/download

Plain & simple this request isn’t going to happen as it cost the dev’s time and money to do this while taken away from their already in place streamlined patching progress.

Behellagh.1468:

Except command line arguments simply pass commands onto the executable. Hex editing is altering the executable. Altering the executable itself is against terms of service. Violation of the terms of service is punishable by loss of account.

It’s rather black and white.

Like I said Anet has been aware of this method since days of GW1 and not one person has been banned for using the hex edit method to run more than 1 copy of the game. I would post links to the guru post but the original guildwarsguru forum was taken offline.

Anet’s “general policy is that anything that gives advantage is forbidden; anything that imbalances the game in favor of one player over another is strictly disallowed”.

Changing a 2 to 3,4,5 does nothing to give advantage as you have to actively play each running client separately as per Anet’s rules. Clearly Anet doesn’t see multi boxing is giving multi box users an advantage over other players running only one client.

Modifying a 2 to 3 is only allowing an other copy of the game to run and that is all. Now that should be a bannable offense? I don’t think so, and its really no different from command line argument as it alters the games exe also.

Command-Line Arguments are directives which are added to the start up command of the game executable. There are directives which change the client’s behavior, streamline player login and enable diagnostics.

Now if some changing things in the game files to (i.e.) wall hack, supper speed, super jump, tele port beyond what the game allows then yes that’s bannable offense

@Presac.3860 thank you

@others Anet is NOT going to fix what they changed in the EXE as they don’t officially support any method for multi boxing, so don’t expect any support from them on this. Any support for multi boxing is up to us to get/figure out depending on method used.

Like it was said the Hex Edit method is the safest workaround changing the 2 to 3,4,5 etc without risking our account info with 3rd party multi boxing apps which stores account info like gw2 launch buddy for example. Anet has been well aware of this hex edit method since day of Guild Wars 1 and hasn’t banned people for changing just one letter or number so we can launch another copy of the game as it doesn’t give anyone an in game advantage at all in anyway.

OP read the sticky post https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/support/Policy-3rd-Party-Programs-Multi-Boxing-Macros/first#post1532762

Dual- or Multi-Boxing
1.You may use more than one account at the same time.
2.You may use more than one computer at the same time.
3.You must be actively playing on each account.
4.And as stated above, you may not program your keyboard to perform functions on more than one account at a time.
a. For example, if you press W on your keyboard to move forward, a single character on a single account should move forward. The keystroke or mouse click should not perform functions on more than one account.
