Boysenberry.1869 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 There is an announcement above that explains Anet's stance on macros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Blue.2349 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Here is the macro policy from the sticky:MacrosGuild Wars 2 players are permitted to use macros as long as the macros are programmed with a one-to-one function protocol. This means the following:If you program a macro, it must require one keystroke per action. You may not program a single key to perform multiple functions. For example, if you Press A and it results in the casting of a single skill, you're ok. If you Press A and it casts multiple spells, you're not ok.You cannot program a macro to perform the same or multiple actions on more than one account at a time.You cannot program an "auto-clicker" macro that, for instance, opens chests while you play elsewhere, or that opens a quantity of chests with a single click.NOTE: We make an exception for macros used for music composition or musical performances. As long as a player employs such a macro solely for the performance of in-game music, we do not place restrictions on its use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedDawnsHaze.5940 Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Did a search in the forums and this was the first page that came up. Wasn't sure if I should post here or a new spot. I did read the sticky above, which brought up more questions... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jukhy.2431 Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 (edited) Here is the current policy: https://help.guildwars2.com/hc/en-us/articles/360013762153-Policy-Macros-and-Macro-Use In short: binding dodge & jump in single key, auto-clicker to open/consume a stack of items and macros to play music are allowed as long as you're not afk while using them.

Melech.4308 Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 What about using macros to switch between build and equipment templates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 If it's not listed as allowed, it's a risk. You can do/use anything you want, but you do risk your account. It seems CS/GMs aren't quite as 'friendly' as they used to be. Good luck. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, if I am correct (and I am not 100% certain I am), there are key bind options for each, which means you would need two button presses. One to swap to the build, one to swap to the equipment. https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Controls In this wiki page, it shows that you can key bind to templates, but again, you’d need one for Build and one for equipment. Edited January 11, 2022 by Strider Pj.2193 Found Wiki article supporting my thoughts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
