put one in GH

even tho not everyone would have a GH, i think it would be better to make a player so SOMETHING to change his/her profession rather than jus go into the hero window

Guild Hall changer does not charge and can only give professions you've unlocked in Desert / Senji's

YES!
Especially for PvP. I mean, if you wanna be a hammer warrior, and have the hammer and right armor+runes on a PvP warrior, but need to change secondary, if this feature is included, there will be no need to reroll!
Great idea!

I really dont see why a profession changer cant be like the priest of balth = you dont have the chapter, you dont see the stuff.

Would be nice to change builds in the Guild Hall for PvP without having to visit the desert.

Therefore, anet losing money. And i dont think they are gunna switch the battle isles any time soon, because everyone can always get to them, no matter what expansion.
um... no... You're making the assumption that Anet is stupid... and for my own protection, ill close my statement^^

I suppose you could /sign it... but as long as Anet reads threadmaker's post, as the person has some very valid ideas.

Hero screen only. If it's in the guild hall you still have to warp to the guild hall.

With it now in Great Temple of Balthazar it seems that there is no reason to not have it in GH as well...

I /sign for the guild hall one like an extra addition like the merchants, but not H hero window. I don't think that that would work at all...

With it in the Temple of Balthazar, it would be pointless to also have it as a Guild Hall NPC. Mapping is not nearly troublesome enough to require such an update.

And the H window idea is pretty ridiculous, That would be far too complicated for it's worth since there are soo many places to change profession already. This would just require them to disable the secondary changer while your in missions or battles. Pretty much any time you could hit H and go change secondary, you could go to the Temple of balthazar, or senji's.

guild hall mapping allows you to return to the place you were. mapping to the battle isles does not.

You are on crack. Why the hell do we need a Dye Trader in our Guild hall ffs? H window is a great idea, not complicated at all. It's like removing attribute refund points and not allowing people to take points away from attributes while in explorable areas. For instance I don't see why, even though I've capped every elite, that I still have to talk to some two cent piece of shit just to swap an only merely secondary set of skills. Why the hell would talking to some NPC make more sense than becoming a person of reasonability. I mean people make omlettes for breakfast all the time but they don't have to ask permission to make toast and vice versa.

Correct, this is why having one in the battle islands is a waste of time, but having on in the Guildhall wouldn't be.

Yes a Guildhall changing at least, not too sure about the [H] idea, but a Guildhall changer would be a great addition.

hero screen would be best but guild hall would already be a major improvement since its easy to switch to (and return to the map you were) and its the fastest loading map.

On that note the prof changer in temple of balth is already a big improvement over senji/desert outposts.

/signed for [H] window. If people really want to be able to save skillsets like I hear so often, this would need to be implemented first. That way, when they are in an outpost and click on skillset 2, they would receive a message saying 'this skillset requires you to change your secondary profession to mesmer. Continue?' If they click yes, it would automatically do it, or if needed they could go into the [H] window and do it themselves, and then click skillset 2.

/signed, but only if you have unlocked the profession you are changing to. And you can't unlock them from this guy, unlike Senji's etc. That would mean anyone who can get to the PVP isles and is in a guild can change profs. Or possible require ascension.

Prefer in Hero window, hall is fine. Mapping would be less of a chore if they gave options of what continent to go to then just showed the map and let us pick a place like normal.

They have been talking about implimenting build templates for your PvP characters, but that it's taking a while because they want to do it right. So I wouldn't be surprised if both happened together. I think the addition of the guy in Temple of Balthazar was nice enough for the time being until we can get the whole shibang

However it's done would be an improvement, but this would be my prefered method (but the addition of just changing your secondary without changing your build would be good):
Quote:
Build Templates
Let you design your own PvP templates to add to the stock list. Eventually add a trainer type npc who you can craft a tradeable build "tome" for your inventory. The build scroll is based on attributes (unmodified by gear) and skills your current character (PvP or PvE) is set up with, as well as a title and description you may type in describing the build. Double clicking a tome will add it to your templates library. Templates library may be accessed in the first PvP creation screen. Template library may also be accessed from a new tab in the (H)ero window. Only same primary attribute templates will be accessible here. Choosing a the template will change your skills and attribute points (unmodified by gear). If you don't have the skill unlocked (for that character or account depending on if it's PvE or PvP), the slot will be blank. If you don't have the secondary unlocked for a PvE character, your secondary will not change.

Im against the idea that not only destroys a useful npc, but makes the hero menu so much more crowded <_<.. Not to mention the fact that the reason pvp characters are instantly level 20 is so you won't feel any regret deleting and remaking them in the event you need to change. Plus there is a NPC that changes pvp 2ndaries already, if you don't want to do a simple warp then don't complain for being lazy. I mean it doesn't take more then a damn click or two, jeez...
