Hero panel

From Guild Wars 2 Wiki

This article is about the user interface. For the achievement, see Hero (achievement).

The hero panel (shortcut: H by default) is a user interface panel that displays a summary about the character. It is divided into five tabs: equipment, traits, personal story, crafting, and achievements.

Contents 1 Equipment 2 Weapon Skills 3 Slot Skills 4 Traits 5 My story 6 Crafting 7 Achievements

[edit] Equipment

On the top right hand corner of the equipment tab (default hotkey H), the character's name, level and profession are displayed, along with the profession's icon and their main personality trait next to it. In this case, the character's main personality is charming.

Moving down, the attribute points are displayed that are available to the character as well as the four attributes that the points can be spent on. Further statistics are represented by attack, critical chance, armor and health shown below.

On the left half of the tab, the character's model is shown. All armor pieces are lined vertically on the right side of the model, while their accessories and secondary equipment pieces are displayed on the bottom right of the tab, and the weapon sets equipped are lined up on the left side. Above the model is a mode switch between armor and what is speculated to be town clothing.

Finally, an icon just above the armor piece icons toggles dye mode. This switches the right hand side of the panel to bring up a list of all available colors, allowing armor pieces to be dyed.
