Guild Wars 2

Is anyone else tired of dungeon fights that feel more like a pile of explosions and blind light that covers the bosses making it painful hard or even impossible to see? It feels like its taking away from the fun of a fight when I have no idea what the bosses it doing because I can’t see him anymore. and don’t get me started on zerg fights XD

We need some kind of option to lets us cut or turn down the effects to a point were happy with. sure I wanna see skills like fields and stuff but I don`t need to see endless explosions for every skill.

Same here. The new LOD option doesn’t do much.

I like the visuals and the feeling of immersion they can bring, but I definitely know what you’re talking about with not seeing the boss. With some of the Scarlet events, especially when you’re fighting a champion, it’s sometimes impossible to know exactly where the foe is so you can setup a ground targeted skill. I have to watch my auto-attack damage numbers floating up while I strafe around to get a feel for where the foe is likely standing before I can setup the AoE skill.

Perhaps a drop down menu with options similar to the following:

• Show all particle effects.
• (Optional) Show own and X particle effects. All additional AoE greater than X will only display as rings. (X is a field in which the player can type a number which determines the limit of spell effects which can be displayed at any one time on the player’s screen.)
• Show own and enemy particle effects. Allies’ AoE will only display the rings.
• Show own particle effects. Allies’ and enemies’ AoE will only display the rings.
• Turn off all particle effects. Only rings will display for AoE.

As there is already a toggle to turn off AoE rings, no need to add it here.

We just need bigger, taller, fattier bosses that look actually like Bosses not the same NPC from the crowd only in a a little extruded up version.
The scarlet Chaps and Lieutenants were just the right type of bosses I would like to see. maybe even the Molten alliance Shamans, but not the Aetheblades. They were just lame.
