GW2 Tips and Shortcuts you DON'T know! - a Guild Wars 2 Guide

[@Draxynnic]

Entering the PvP lobby automatically repairs any damaged armour you have equipped. Easy to overlook nowadays since armour repair is free, but it might sometimes be more convenient than finding an anvil.

[@jenthulhu]

Nice!

[@albsi7630]

Works also with WvW like the LA Portal.

[@mana_surge]

I do something similar with just going to my guild hall and repairing (since it's quick and can be done by just hitting G and then doing it and exiting, back into the same spot you were before)

[@MrJueKa]

@@mana_surge going to the guild hall is the better concept in many situations imo because you can do more things if you have to and get back to your former spot afterwards

[@lavenderlovee]

Huh? What damaged armor?!!

[@Dalennau]

One I discovered recently - you can double-click on a waypoint on your minimap to instantly go to that location without dealing with the "are you sure?" dialog box. Nice when you're in a hurry trying to escape from enemies you don't want to deal with.

[@Shark-8472]

I got one. You can target an boss by clicking on the health bar in the event menu (top right of screen) very handy if you want to target the boss but there are lots of ads. Or it the joko fractal as the boss spawns clones of herself

[@Orbert]

Omg, thank you.

[@warchiefballer8809]

Wait,you mean if I click on teh health bar on the right side of the boss,and she has clones,it will target the REAL one?!

[@BorderFreak]

i was today old when I learned this ty i generally just end up hitting tab 80 times until i get what i want and enviably hit it 1 too many times

[@Zyphent]

Can't believe I played this since launch and just learned about right clicking the daily chest.

[@szkajt]

haha m2 :D

[@mortwycker]

Wow

[@Lyza04]

Yeah same its ridiculous XD

[@CozNothingIsForever]

I knew all of them :( some new ones are: - Type "I am Evon Gnashblade" in the trading post for a compact view of items (same to disable it). - You can hover on your condition duration icon on stats to see the increased duration of specific conditions, like you have a 50% condi duration but a 70% on burning because of a rune, etc. - You can go through enemies if you disable melee combat assist in options (that shit comes by default enabled, frustrating). - Your camera is not by default on maximum possible distance, you can set the Field of View to the right to get that. - All races have the same hitbox and speed, even if your "perception" of some of them make them look faster/slower. - Teach them about LFG, best tool in the game. - You can invite people to group with commands (/invite Name), it also works to join (/join Name) and also squads /squadjoin and /squadinvite. Useful when the game doesn't show you the right click option to invite a friend. - You can whisper yourself with the command: /tell YourName

[@MuklukYoutube]

I will issue you a full refund, but I thank you for your additions :D

[@Buschkopf111]

bruh your smurfing the vid

[@DarkElfDiva]

Where in the trading post do you type it? I'm assuming not in the search bar.

[@CozNothingIsForever]

@@DarkElfDiva You type it in the search bar. Why would you assume not there? O,o

[@arthurcassidy1519]

4:15, that's me in the background with the wings. That's the weirdest thing ever

[@aerodynamica]

I use the Pvp lobby to repair my Broken Armor. Just entering PvP auto repairs armor, and Exit PvP returns you to the same spot you left the map, so you don't have to do all the running, or pay for waypoints.

[@jenthulhu]

Genius!!!!!!!

[@Fiyaaaahh]

ArenaNet should play this as an introduction video when you first boot the game. There are so many things I wish I had known years before.

[@greggmiller401]

Great video, couple more: You can right click an item in your inventory and click sell to when merchant dialog is open Use weapon swap/stow to cancel long animations That tiny red bar under skill indicates target is out of range of the skill you can emote at someone: /thank @Mukluk left click commander icon on map to join squad hovering over the legend icons on map highlights the ones you are missing for that type, provided you have discovered the portion of the map it's in mobs on map give more bonus exp the longer it is alive, so farm those yellow mobs

[@imVidzzz]

@Iron Tusk yes, and since they don't aggro people tend to ignore them so they build up a large xp bonus. When you are leveling it's worth it to kill yellow enemies around because of that

[@atmaramipangiba]

I went through wikis to find that last heart when I could just hover them??!!

[@theduck3795]

- Similar to underwater sigils, if you have a stacking sigil (bloodlust, corruption, etc) on your land weapons but NOT on any underwater weapons, you will lose your stacks when going in the water. This sucks for WvW where you might dip in the water for a second and have to regain all stacks! - When mystic forging a lot in short succession (like upgrading mats or making clovers) you can interact with the forge again immediately after hitting "forge" to cancel the long animation - At NPC merchants you can drag the number up or down to increase or decrease the amount you're buying. - Worth noting that only one combo field can be "active" at a time! So if you lay down a smoke field to blast for stealth but then your friendly Guardian buddy puts down a light field, you're going to blast the light field instead of the smoke. - You can type /wiki in the chat box followed by what you want to wiki (i.e. /wiki mystic forge) and it'll open a browser window with the wiki! - You can click the endurance bar to dodge :D

[@icyknightmare4592]

5:45 For those that have access to it, a Fiery Dragon Sword is one of the brightest lights in the game. It's also usable on some classes that can't use a torch.

Just throwing this out there as embarrassed how long it took me to notie. Therese a little red bar below a ranged skill that will show when youre in range of the target.

[@ronaissafernandez1317]

re: salvaging, if you put the stacks at the bottom end of your inventory bags (if you don't have sufficient shared inventory slots) these will be salvaged last. salvaging starts from top to bottom left to right.

[@creativedesignation7880]

Or you can put them in an invisible bag to not have them salvaged. I always have one equipped at the very top of the bag for stuff I carry around, but don't want to accidentally sell or salvage.

[@ElDPRoberts]

I also use the invisible bags for stuff I don't want showing at a merchant or trading post. Makes for a quicker and cleaner look when selling my stuff. Not sure if invisible/safe bags go over 20 slots though? if big bags are higher priority.

As a ranger u can swap pets even when ur fully dead and let them fight for you. Just open the pet window and change them.

[@jasonbaumgardner2011]

I was going to say the same thing but then I thought to scroll through comments so there wouldnt be double posting. =)

[@ReinaDia]

Oh my- thank u!

[@amadexi]

A few additional points: About map ping, you can also Shift+Left click to do the standard ping. and Shift+ hold left click -> select for special pings. You can move the minimap the same way you move the chat. Invisible bags also work to prevent salvaging. Another thing that I would have added is that you can cancel skill/animations/actions by using the stow/draw weapon key.

[@MrJueKa]

"Safe Boxes" as well

[@PureRandumosity]

Super useful guide, I always enjoy these types of videos as a veteran. A couple of these I had no idea about! Also, I just found out yesterday while grinding out Vision that while you're diving down on a griffon- if you press the space bar while diving you can double dive and increase your speed even more.

[@dirufanboy1971]

Mukluk: "I don't want to se any zucchinis on those maps!" Me: "Then don't look at my map....."

[@Ruisu101]

Something else worth noting: if you're in a guild and it has a guild hall and scribing station, you can open the guild UI and go to your guild hall. Activate the station, and use the tabs on the left to flick through normal bank UI. And if the guild has got that far, then they've probably got a normal merchant next to where you spawn in, too.

[@TheSkywriter3]

This made me laugh out loud XD

[@DarkSydeKlyde]

Great tips, but I would add that when map completing and can't find what you are missing you can hover your mouse over the left side of the map where it shows your completion it will ping those missing spots on the map, HPs, Vistas, etc. Almost always, sometimes it redirects you to a Scout. Otherwise, consult the wiki.

[@DarkSydeKlyde]

Here is a demonstration... kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXuaXpKDabinoJI

[@atmaramipangiba]

Learning about this just now makes me want to kick myself

[@theminister1154]

This works better with locations & vistas. For some reasons they pop up when waypoints do not

[@velkanzi]

does it work for hero points? and Hearts?

[@DraconasTenZHG]

Elementalist tip: I don't know if it's a bug or a hidden mechanic but it has been around for a long time and it's useful in all game modes. In Fire staff you can use 4 and while dashing backwards quickly click 5 - this way you will dash but the meteor shower will be cast in the same place as you would cast without dashing. This gives you free range and is super useful in PvP.

[@amayatora22]

Salvaging, if you put the items you don't want to salvage in a invisible bag, you never have to worry about salvaging them

[@mattjohnson8585]

I'm actually fairly proud of myself for figuring out about 6 or so of those all by myself.

[@TimesplitPickle]

Regarding the "useless" dodge-by-clicking-the-bar, I'm pretty sure that is an accessibility feature for those who only have/can use one hand.

[@sett2899]

I have been complaining about the treasure chest popup since I started playing gw2, you just changed everything

[@Ragestatus]

Hey man! Got into a random pvp match with you yesterday and because of your name I checked out your Twitch, then ended up here. Great content! I've played very little since 2012 and often take year+ breaks so all of your vids are super helpful. Thanks for the effort and explanations, brother.

[@T1p2]

Not everyone has Shared Inventory bags, but anyone can get Invisible bags. Anything stored in an Invisible bag will be exempt from selling (whether at a merchant or at the Black Lion trading post) unless dragged out into a normal bag, or salvaging unless done manually. This allows you to keep treasured "junk" items safe (I have a pair of Queen Jennah's shoes... don't judge), and stash away your unidentified gear until you collect a full stack.

[@kalltuss4012]

Those shoes have sentimental value, no judgement

[@JazzyRedMusic]

Literally have played this game since release, i did NOT know about: - drawing on the map - right-click on big skill icon to switch skills out (definitely going to use that for mounts) - clicking on top of health bar to dodge - jump + dodge - poor man's vip lounge - changing autocast Thanks for the tips!! I'll add one of my own: Check out your keybinds in the controls section of the options menu. I promise there are things there you never knew you could keybind! For example, you can keybind individual mounts. I have my skyscale bound to the middle mouse button, leaving the 'x' default mount free to change to a good ground mount (edit) Oh and one more thing!! In the map, if you are missing a vista, hero point, etc., you can hover the mouse over the corresponding icon in the legend and the missing things will light up! Useful for getting those pesky points of interest that are hard to see. Do be warned, however, that this only works for areas you've already discovered in the zone you are currently in. So it won't work for the world map and won't work if the thing you're missing is in an area you haven't unblurred!

[@velkanzi]

Ty, for explaining about the map thing ... decided to go for map completion, and as I am about 90%, do not really want to resort to an add on ... was wondering why I can not find the last one or two hero points or heart.

[@killerkram1337]

I use the turn around button in guild wars 1 a lot. I will now bind this in guild wars 2. Thanks for the tip

[@PatSlovak]

8:00 can also just hit "R" to reset events. For bag opening, would suggest opening on lvl 80 if looking for dust

[@bencerf]

At 9:35, Obsidian Sanctum in WvW is the best poor vip lounge: -quickly to load than PvP lobby -almost every PNJs (except those from guilds) which are WAYYY closest to the tp!! (cf. wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/World_versus_World#Obsidian_Sanctum) Otherwise thanks for the 2 smalls tips that I didn't know till today :P Great video with an exhaustive list of tips, well done!!

[@alyxxi0]

I just started a new character after years of not playing. I've been following your guides and honestly it's helped so much!

[@Lucifersheaven]

On the note of targeting: If you put the CTRL+LMB target on an ally, the "lock on target" shortcut key will make you target your allies target. Also, while not always 100% reliable, when you use Tab to cycle through locked on targets, it'll prioritise more powerful targets (champs/legendaries).

[@velkanzi]

And here I was, thinking my team mates were just trolling me ...

[@celticnoble5650]

I literally just discovered the stack salvaging thing myself last week, which was a game changer. Also, you showing that I can just right click the chests blew my mind.

@@generalerica4123 That's right. I've definitely used it on lvl 2 characters. WvW as well.

Lions Arc is accessible from lvl 1 for Accounts that have purchased the game (As you can only purchase the game with PoF and HoT). Free Accounts are however not allowed to access Lions Arc before lvl 35, and it is per character.

[@Ruisu101]

On the note about avoiding accidentally salvaging things like unidentified gear, you can stick them in an invisible bag slot and they will be ignored by the salvage operation. I always set up my inventory like this: normal bags at the top, invisible bag at the bottom. I stick everything I know I'm going to keep and not sell into the invisible bag, being careful to leave three spots, wherein I'll place unidentified gear so that I can deal with them in bulk. Stuff like consumables, gear I don't have equipped via a template, alternative weapons I might swap out to in niche situations etc. I don't use trophy bags or craftsman bags any more. Frankly, I don't care where trophies/materials end up in my inventory, as long as it's not in my invisible bag. I sell junk when I get to merchants and every so often I'll salvage all loose identified greens/blues and mass deposit materials. If stuff like a sigil or medallion has no buy listing on the TP and a huge number of sell listings, they're going to the merchant or I'll salvage them, depending on whether or not I care to remember to salvage them if they're salvageable (usually I don't.) If I get overflow from depositing too many materials, I'll sort it by opening my crafting characters to refine base materials. I'll sell refined overflow unless I know I'm saving it for something. I've resized my window so I can see the entire thing, but if yours is just too large, you can make your inventory show all bags (on by default)-clicking on a bag icon on the left will make the window jump to that bag.

[@ThatGuyNL]

as a returning player that last played gw2 in 2013, this video was really nice

[@korpse3893]

Been playing for years, and gosh there were so many new things learned from this video! Thank you

[@beeping2blipping]

8:16 How to show all skills that are in that slot with shift + RMB click With shift + LMB click (just change mouse button) - you create a chat link [control + LMB make a skill to repeat itself: there is white frame around skill when this is enabled] It is also possible to create a chat link this way by using shift + LMB click. If you want to know one skill from wiki type /wiki in chat and use shift + LMB (which each creates one link) with ENTER/RETURN and now your default browser will open with info from Guild Wars 2 wiki. If you want to know several skills from GW2 wiki, then just add chat links after the first /wiki in chat and this way when wiki will open you will have all those links in one page which now can be used one by one or create tabs in your web browser. This is a fast way to look up skills directly from game without useing search ion GW2 wiki. This can also be used on icons for boon, traits that put icons on weapon bar etc. Useful if you want to read in chat tooltip information.

[@hemmhumm5182]

This is the best video of gw2 i found and the only one who didnt make me wanna blow my head up, things should be short and to the point and people tell you stories of their dead dog like you have time

[@dopeysith5503]

Fantastic tips as always! My knowledge grows!

[@NekrosHotA]

For the ground targeting in dark rooms portion you can hold the right mouse button to change the camera angle without activating the ground target skill. You also don't need to disengage the skill at all since it won't activate until you press the skill button again or left mouse button.

[@PeterSanderse]

That depends on your settings (Options, Combat/Movement, Ground targeting), I'm using Fast with Range Indicator, which means that when I release the button, the skill is activated. Right mouse button camera angle is super useful tho ^^

Provided that you're level 80 and have enough will and gold to sort it out, you can jump to the public instance of the Eye of the North-it is immediately available upon reaching level 80 as long as you have access to Path of Fire and the Icebrood Saga. There's a merchant there from whom you can buy area upgrades: normal merchant, crafting stations and craft masters, various other world merchants (such as an Icebrood Saga merchant), Trading Post access, bank access (via Xunlai storage), laurel merchant... No need to invest in a Mistlock Sanctuary Passkey or other passes. It's far cheaper to invest in your Eye of the North. All EotN upgrades are account-wide. Moreover, the Icebrood Saga Portal Tome has, by default, a button to go to the Eye of the North so the most lazy of us don't even have to pan across the map to find the Wwaypoint.

You can retarget some skills too, you missed that one. Retarget means you can use a skill like "Rush" on warrior and it will make your character about face or change direction depending on the target you have marked when you press you take target key, mid skill. Skills can also be cancelled by pressing sheathe weapon key, or if its a channel skill you have to swap weapon.

[@PeterSanderse]

Only works if you have "Allow Skill Retargeting" enabled (Options, Combat/Movement)
