My FPS is usually great, but when I get into specific spots (parts of Black Citadel, for instance) my FPS drops to rock bottom. I usually just avoid the area, but this same sort of thing is happening in Crown Pavilion for me and I can’t really avoid Crown Pavilion if I want to do achievements. I can get it to go away if I rotate my camera so I cannot see the ground, but that obviously isn’t viable for doing anything since I can’t see anything with the camera like that.

Really, really disappointing

ANET manages to completely ignore the performance limitations of their horrible engine yet again.
Not to mention the stupid camera in the fighting cages.

Ugh the camera in the cages. This is part of why I don’t do them. I find if you set the setting to best performance however things work fine for me. Just not as nice to look at. Just remember to switch back when you head out. It has to do with the number of players on the map. Welcome to how WvW feels in large fights.

Yeah, that’s what I finally settled on doing. Hilariously, I can still see the FPS raise and drop when I move my camera around, but on best performance the graphics are so low that it’s still playable instead of being a 1 fps-fest.
