Guild Wars 2

Anyone else experiencing a huge FPS drop when you get to the holograms part of the TA Aetherblade dungeon?

A teammate of mine said it might have something to do with the water flowing underneath the map. Normally my FPS is around 30 but even when I put all my graphical settings on ‘best performance’ I can only get 10 FPS at best. Unfortunately, it makes it almost impossible to play. Any suggestions would be welcome.

Oh, yes. I noticed this too. Most of my party saying it was “laggy” because of fps drop. Happened to me too.

This is severe. I went out and got latest drivers immediately after but I’m sure it won’t help. Very hard to move around the Foreman pirate’s traps with precision at < 10 fps.

I’m having the same problem, huge FPS drops in exactly the same place, it’s probably caused by the huge amount of smoke ( which is pretty useless if i may add ).

I wish there was an option to tone down the smoke quality even more or even turn it off completely since this issue isn’t just inside the dungeon, happens on a few other maps as well.

Same problem here. I tried to turn down individual options to find the culprit but there wasn’t a specific one that gave me a substantial fps increase, so I’m not quite sure what is causing this.
