GHOST.8609 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Sensei Google led me to this post, also its annoying and looking for a workaround for months now.I have an idea which is simple and very easier to implement for anet > just add a unequip option in in the novelty selection page.When you equip an outfit you can also right click and unequip it same thing can be implemented so even if you press the button nothing will happen its like when you make a fresh new character and that button does not work till you add a novelty.

I really don't know how it's bothering people. >.>It's hard to unsee something that bugs you. Thankfully I can ignore that on the bar but the scrapper's (my main) hovering gyro and engineer's explosives glowing hand bug me more. The latter doesn't go away when zoomed into first person, it just bobs there. Some two handed weapons on other professions bob in and out of vision on FP as well. All of them along with the lack of FP while mounted bug me and mess with the ability to do videos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no reason to have the mouse there at all.No reason to be there = no chance of accidental clicks = no problem. You're welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GHOST.8609 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 There is no need for a work-around because you have hotkeys. I was playing the game with only mouse for last 5 years.

Friday.7864 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Trise is completely right.You guys should be paying attention to what's going on around you instead of looking at and clicking around the interface. It's slower, less efficient and in heated situations it might as well cost you your life. Any half serious player should use hotkeys and customize the default keybinds. There's even videos on that. It took me less than a month as a newbie to realize how clicking stuff with the mouse is counterproductive, to put it mildly.Despite me seeing it as a non-issue, if you still insist on clicking - I have nothing against an option to hide that button.Do at least consider cutting down on mouse usage for non essential stuff tho...

GHOST.8609 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Hello sir , I jump started the topic because I was looking for an option to unequip the novelty bar like like outfit. For outfits you have not only the option to hide but unequip them totally. It was just a suggestion in a random 2 year old post which anet will never see. I am not posting anything like "ANET SHOULD DO THIS". A lot of people have different kids of ocd and the point I am making is that people can give suggestion to smaller changes to UI which adds upon the things already there. And if people want to play with mouse click its their preference (and seems like you guys are bothered more about that and do not know what sarcasm is) Anyways as I said google led me to this post, I joined the forums a year ago and I rarely post as there will be people like him who will teach you about hotkeys ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeolus.3615 Posted April 26, 2020 Author Share Posted April 26, 2020 Actually sometime i still end using the novelties in wvw due miss clicks... i got mount keybinded but sometimes while using other keybinds or movements using mouse to that icon its closer and faster than using the keybinds (imagine a jumpdodge roll to make target miss to mount and escape or incease range) yeah but sometimes what happens is dodge to novelty ..... and play bass while enemey keep atacking... -.-"Forcing to use a keybind to avoid miss clicks its a forced solution, that a awfull solution when we are talking of UI design... keybind somethign to avoid problems....its simply bad design.Altough this is not important thing to act, but something in future needs to be done to improve UI experience.My last resource will be using a macro to full chain the jump dodge roll to mount.

Krozair.3298 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 I totally support this idea. All it takes is one time of hitting the tiny box inside the small box and your attacking a Boss with a balloon or sitting in a chair while he wipes you out. All Novelty items have lost all value to me and are not considered a reward or loot anymore. This change would make a world of diference and probably generate Gem Shop Sales of Novelty items, once again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 If it seems an issue, and until there is a change, one could always put a Combat Tonic in. Perhaps, then there would not be an impending down/defeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sorudo.9054 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 then also remove hearts from the UI and make them auto-complete, i hate anything that blinks on my screen and it's super annoying when i am playing to get away from all the annoyance i have to deal with....oh, before i forget, allow multi-leveling so i don't have to click on the level icon per level.
