Just did a DE at the Cathedral of Glorious victory. It wasn’t glorious and there was no victory. Why? Because even with loads of people there, we barely made a dent in that Champion. Apparently there are mobs that heal the thing, but since you can’t even see what you’re attacking, its sort of hard…check that…LAME as hell. Better yet, you can’t avoid anything because he just pops on top of you then you die in 1 hit. I’d say maybe 30 people were there, but maybe more, hard to count when players are popping in and out of view and there are so many spell effects going off at once, its just a complete, utter mess.
Sorry, but if this is what I saw in WvW and why I never bothered going back…players I couldn’t see…enemies I couldn’t see, then I could, then I couldn’t. This engine is HORRIBLE at what it should be great at…large scale events. If this doesn’t get fixed quick, I’ll be avoiding all large scale events because I just can’t tolerate it.
I thought maybe turning my graphics down to lowest would help. Nope. Still couldn’t see 1/2 of what was going on and everything just looked terrible as well=) No performance boost to speak of and my box can handle it. Or, do you need a 10K gaming rig to run the GW2 endgame=)
I’ve heard people call DE’s easy….just zerg the targets down. What? I think there was a pretty massive zerg and it didn’t mean squat….unless the whole encounter is bugged and we’re just a bunch of idiots smacking a brick wall with a wet noodle?
