Multiple Skill Bars? - Guild Wars Forums

Sinnr · Feb 06, 2006, 05:10 PM // 17:10

Is there a way to have two different skill bars pre-loaded.

My thinking is I have a certain set of skills that go with a particular set of attributes. And if I change my build I would like to just be able to change to the second skill bar instead of dragging and dropping those skill back in to the single skill bar.

Thanks,

nope there is no way.

I believe they're going to implement this in Factions. Correct me if I wrong anyone.

think this has been mentioned before...

anyhow it would be a nice idea - i get annoyed with changing builds the way it is now.

That would be sweet to have "Skill" sets just like were able to have "Weapon" sets. That would be a great suggestion for ArenaNet if they dont already have it in Factions. Hopefully they do.

It really makes no sense why you can't do this...as a new player I find this very lacking in design. GW is supposed to be about tactics and skill and I just find the lack of this makes it cumbersome at the least to changes those tactics and skills. And I am not saying on the fly during a mission or pvp session I am just saying in towns etc...

Although I havent been playing very long I can't tell you how many times a teammate has rushed into a mission when I have not completely set up my attribs or skill bar.

Most of the members of my guild have taken to keeping little steno pads on their computer desks with Skill/Attribute information for their 'favorite' builds.

I have to agree, having the ability to pre-load skills would be a welcome improvement.

IMO This should have been implemented when they did away with the attribute refund points. It's so easy now to switch your build, and multiple skill bars would make it that much easier.

/signed /agreed /canwegetthisASAP?

yeah I change all my chars up an insane amount and have to remember what I did lol... I take some notes too/remember them fairly well but the rebuidling..

oh while I'm at it, I'd REALLY like to be able to change my secondary on Battle Isle, it's really a drag for the PvEr too -

take a boat, warp from LA to desert, switch, hit boat, back to arena of choice

bleah

Going along with this the thought of 5 hops with re-toolbar-ing to try something new has had me do something else instead a couple times already lol

np there is no way but that would be the tightest and MOST helpful thing in the game....well beside the basic stuff like the skills themselves and obviusly weapons /armor, and health.... u get my point
