View Full Version : Stance/Equip Swap ?
I know this has been asked in one form or another several times before .. but I can't seem to find any info that's relatively current and I'm returning to the game from a long absence...Is it possible using macros and/or a series of hotkeys to swap from an offensive stance holding a 2H weapon to a defensive stance holding a 1H+Shield and vice versa? I'm talking keyboard work here, not mouse. Right now I just use my hotkeys to change stances (push whatever new one I want twice) but I have to use the mouse opening up my bags and double clicking on the new equip I want to equip. And it always swaps out the first one right away but won't do the second one for another 3-4 seconds..valuable time lost not holding a weapon or shield!Again, I apologize if not been asked before..but I was curious if anyone knew of a new way of doing it other than what I'm doing..

<div></div>The most you could use a macro for is to open the bag with those items in it. You will still have to double click the item in the bag as well as the item equip "wait 4 second" time.

You get the first "equip" for free... its is just subsequent equips you need to wait for.Switching to off stance with 2H is very easy to do so... stance and drag the 2H sword to your hotbar and click that will replace both your sword and your shield in short order. Going the other way however is much harder - best start with shield first - few attacks with your fist before picking up your sword.I use this tactic a lot with my zerker... dual wield then click on my tower shield if things are getting rough and I'm DW/Shield in under a second. Not the best combination of weapons but I'm trying to survive not win a DPS contest.<div></div>
