We have Danger + be careful ping

Replace one with warded ping

I like this idea too, using the alert ping isnt good enough because then your jg just thinks that you dont want ganks/ dont think you are strong enough to win, when in reality you just dont want him sitting there wasting his time on a ward

Yup, need this. Many a time I have had to let my Evelynn know.

Excellent suggestion.

Mid lane walks blindly into unwarded jungle. Gets deleted. Proceeds to "Warded"ping spam the support. ( I agree though, the more pings the better)

Danger ping not good enough?? That what I'd use. Maybe only higher elo junglers will understand what is meant. Also, just because it's warded doesn't mean it isn't worth attempting to gank.

Replace the wtf ? ping and use it for the warded ping. Everyone just uses it for wtf spam and when people actually use it for MIA nobody pays attention to it because they hear it so often. Only after they get ganked they scroll up in chat and see the MIA ping just for reference then yell at you if you didn't ping it. But they never pay attention to it otherwise. The be careful or danger ping is more effective in place of a MIA ping because people actually pay attention to that and move back towards their turret or the safety of another.

So the reason it isn't made yet is rather simple: every ping you add reduces the accuracy of the quick-ping system, or requires another keybind to be memorized. It's currently a nice four sides, meaning you can just drag your mouse in an easy direction and go. Putting in more means your level of accuracy needs to increase each time, and Riot wants it to be really fast and easy to ping.

I agree a "warded" ping would be amazing, ESPECIALLY if you could find some way to put in a little visual with a timer on the map that might help people remember where/when it's there. But you'd have to make sure that isn't spammable, and you'd DEFINITELY have to find a way to incorporate it into the game easily and fluidly, because there are a few additional pings that could be super useful, and there isn't enough room for all of them on the quick-ping menu.

Or you can recommend a macro button for using menu for fast chatting. Menu Chat -> Submenu Warning -> Submenu Stay away from conflict. Menu Chat -> Submenu Direction -> Submenu All mid.

Same

Magearna5/18/2017, 8:59:51 PM1 votes

I know this isn't a fix but I put a macro on my keyboard that uses the "Danger" ping and types "Warded" in the chat. If you have a keyboard or mouse that has macros/buttons on it, you can try to use that as a temporary work around.

Btw for this, I rebinded the danger ping to "/"

Aeró5/18/2017, 9:27:24 PM1 votes

i really think we should dump one of the danger/be careful pings because i think most players think of them the same way and we could really use the warded ping

this is one of 3 threads i must always comment in and upvote. Please give us a ward wheel with pings for "Ward Here"/"This is Warded"/"Is there a ward?"/"Control Ward/Sweep here" please. Vision isso instrumental in this game but cant be communicated efficiently. ADC and Supps ward the same brush, jungle waits in river forever while i try and back off top and type "thats warded" and oh man mid lane is so exposed you pracitcially need bullet points to list each area and if there is/not a ward!

Can't agree with this enough

JaxMoonStealer5/19/2017, 4:40:55 AM1 votes

Some what off-topic, but still kind of funny. Smite has almost a hundred different pings but there still isn't a "Warded" ping either.

But hey, it has an "Oops" ping. Super useful :p

Totally agree

i usually do have the time to type "warded" followed by a normal ping, it's not really that difficult to take 2 seconds to do that

Not to mention the Jungler may not know which bush you mean when say lane ganking or taking the red buff.
