I was wondering, with the stuff that already exists in GuildWars, if someone had to create an external program based on what the game already has, what would you want to see in this program? What would help you or make things easier for you?
Example: A skill template making program that is constantly up to date with the latest skill updates.

Thank you



*Note I'm very serious about this *

An armor designer. A program that has all the armor set pieces so we can mix and match to see what we'd like before having to get them in game. Something similar to the ingame preview window so we can see what different dye combos will do. Or even better, color sliders that then tell us what the best dye combination to use to get whatever color in game.

Seconded.

(Even with the dye preview screen, there are so many different combinations that it would take forever to find the perfect colour without some sort of aide. Add in the mix and match ability without having to buy all the armour sets and you have a golden tool right there.)

I wouldn't mind seeing a damage calculator, so you can see what your average damage at X skill level vs X level monster etc will be. I understand it'd be pretty tricky to do, but it'd certainly let you know if there was any point to using a build or not..

i had originally planned on doing all dye combinations in my armor dye guides but after calculating how many different combinations there are, i stopped at 2 dye combos.

i kind of wonder what it would take to make something like this.

If I were to use that I might as well use the actual driver software that came packaged with my mouse; I just want it to be natively supported by the game.

Not exactly what the OP was questioning for, but dammit, it's not like mouse3+ didn't exist before GW was released! Bah!

Im gonna vote for this one too. So many mice these days have extra buttons, it would be nice to just click them to map, instead of messing arount with external software.

Being able to bind mouse buttons/keyboard hotkeys better.

If we don't use it, we can't bind well. If we do, banned for '3rd party programs'.

Lame.

Or maybe the option to activate hero AI on 3 of my characters to make my runs require less work alt-tabbing on both keyboards. That'd be handy.

I am saying this just because it's crazy and widely shunned anyways, so...

All PvE skills be used in PvP! (Muhahahahahaaa!)

Also, just to be a bastard, make crafting items not trade able anymore. Oh, the chaos! The lawls! lol. >;D

I'd like the option to disable friendly clicking outside Party Lineup box, it's always the same, during busy fights, there are 20 monsters but still you always click on a hero or a minion 1st*, so bloody annoying! Also in the same situation, you go for it and do a random cast then get "Spirits are not blah blah blah!" aaargh! Make random casts attack living things then lol

That and what some others have said

*Even while holding in Ctrl key, you're just about to finally cast on the monster you want in the sea of jiggling names, then one of your heroes is like "Nooooooooo!" and dives in front of the cursor

^ This 100% It's time to admit GW PvE is becoming a single-player game. Why on earth can you have 3 heroes and 4 henchmen and solo, but not 7 heroes?
