"Petition / Proposal / Suggestion: a hotkey to cancel maintained Enchantments"
Title says it all:
Let's implement a feature so that, I can press a hotkey to cancel my last maintained Enchantment, without having to double click madly on the small icon on the screen.

I would love to have this, spells such as holy veil, and watchful spirit would be great reasons.

It is not about being lazy. With this last patch, to be a competitive monk you have to be able to quickly cancel Holy Veil to remove a hex. Before this patch there wasn't a need to remove a maintained enchantment on a regular, repetitive basis.
I have severe carpel tunnel. It is extremely painful for me to use the mouse; in fact, I routinely disable my mouse on my laptop (the touchpad) so that I don't accidently trigger it. I do not use a mouse in competitive play. Unfortunately, with this last patch, when playing a monk I'm at a significant dis-advantage to those who are not handicapped. There is no reason why one shouldn't be able to cancel the most recently applied maintained enchantment /w a keystroke.
While they are at it, please let me zoom in/out with a keyboard... pretty please?

interesting.... yea ok

/signed to zooming with keyboard too...
the game should be possible to be played with the keyboard alone (you have to pick things up with the mouse, ect)

Yeah, I too would like to see the game completely playable with the keyboard. Having a mappable key to pick up objects under your character would do the trick, and some sort of key to cancel maintained enchantments.
Then I can play the game with a ps2 joypad :P

I don't want to be running and cancelling all my enchantments, only to end up stopping because i clicked on the ground.
Worse scenario is running towards an enemy and getting aggro...just for clicking those icons.
Main reason...
I want to be able to cast watchful spirit on everybody, then cancel the whole lot in one press of a button to act like a free "heal party".

Thanks for the feedback everyone.
Mucho appreciated.
All right now we have 12 : 1 ratio here. However I dunno if Urda and MSecorsky agrees with this idea or not.
Cheers.

It's only 2 clicks ;o why implent something that *could* make the game buggier while it's not really needed ;p ... besides sometimes you have more than 1 enchantments on you ... how are you going to choose between them? ;p

half the time when you have the same enchantment on the multiple targets and try to cancel one the stupid targets name shows up 5 sec later after you hover on it.
holy veil and watchful spirit are awsome enchantments but are limited by the ablity to cancel them fast w/o canceling the wrong one.
holy veil is the most affective hex removal on the game now but i have to click 20 times for the stupid thing to cancel. sometimes i miss it and then start running when i was wailing on a target. now i got to stop and find my target again and hope i catch up to them.
lots of the mechanics for this game can be easily improved. for now i'll just stick to this topic and see where it goes. if it accually happens i might suggest other mechanics to implement.

Not everyone has the same double click rate. I for example have a too fast double click rate for the 'cancel button'. I need to try 2-3 times before i get it right.
This has nothing to do with my videocard (do you even know what a video card does? There is no scenario a videocard prohibits a double click) or my PC or my internet connection.
@Sister Rosette:
it has nothing to do with lazy. But as you might noticed, there are people playing GW nearly only with keyboard. And because of that, they can't use holy veil effectively.
Normally canceling an enchantment is not that important, but after the last update, you need to apply/cancel holy veil pretty fast.

Yes, I've recently started playing as a monk too and cancelling maintained enchantments is a total pain. Holy veil in particular is very hard to cancel in time before the hex is covered, and clicking at a tiny icon isn't very easy or intuitive.

Although, implementing it would be interesting. If it was the most recent one cast, you best hope your enemy is nice enough to cast their hexes on your most recently veiled ally.

Since Anet is finally adding the little things we have been asking for I'd thought I would give this old thread a bump.
This is still the only real mechanic I've wanted to see added as it is still a pain to cancel the enchantments even though the icons are huge now. No more miss clicks on the ground but still would like to see this due to reaction times.

Thank you twicky_kid, for the thread bump.
Cheers, mate.
And yeah, I would still like to see this feature implemented.
