Hold
From Guild Wars Wiki
This article is about carrying items. For the PvP term, see Hold (PvP).
Hold refers to a character carrying items in an explorable area such as Repair Kits or items created with item spells.
While carrying such an item (usually required for PvE Quests or in PvP Battles) The character loses any benefit gained from their weapon, such as energy bonuses, and will also find that they are unable to attack with the weapon. Such items usually have a particular appearance, and include chests, urns, ashes and more. Items not created with an item spell cause a slowing in movement and changes your character's running style.
