Default APM Monitoring Program

I was wondering if anybody had a decent program that simply monitors your APM, recently got interested in finding out what my APM is in GW and I know someone out there has what I'm looking for.

Thx in advance

He means Actions Per Minute.

Think StarCraft.

Lol! Maybe the guy should take a whole minute and edit his post to tell us what he means by APM.
And a virtual /slapupsidethehead for not doing so in the first place.

gw isn't really based upon actions-per-minute. for one thing, different classes will require a different amount of actions, second of all timing can be just as important as speed (i.e. think of an interrupt ranger, a prot monk, any kind of spike build, etc), and third of all wsad movement cannot be measured within apm.

with that being said, i doubt anyone has bothered to write a program to conduct such a test specifically for gw. afaik, starcraft's methods for determining apm are program-specific. there may be one out there for generic uses, but i think you'd be better off searching starcraft sites rather than gw ones.

one last thing, if someone were to write an apm program for gw, i would have to take a guess that it would involve dll-injection--which is now bannable by anet. so good luck with that.

Indeed, this would require DLL injection, which we will not endorse nor recommend.
