Guild Wars 2

Hi all,

Is it possible to remove the effects of attacks when fighting? It’s specially annoying when fighting bosses or when there are a lot of players targeting the same thing. It would be nice to have an option to completely remove that in the future.

I think there’s an option to reduce that in the option menu but i still think it’s not enough.

Thanks for reading

In short — no, atm it’s not possible. And since this problem been known since pre-beta it looks like it’s an engine limitation/problem, and here to stay (like many other piece-of-junk-engine related).

No it should not be here to stay. Particle effects are an utter hindrance for players who need to watch for animations but can only see a haze of glowing spell effects. They should be fixing that, and the bad camera, as a courtesy to paying customers who have to peer through the blaze of effects to play their game. It shouldn’t have to wait for the eventually tweaking of the graphics engine to suit newer graphic cards.

As i said ppl were mentioning this problem since pre-beta, i would guess, if they could, they would’ve fixed this by now, one way or another.

I have talked/asked about this myself. I find it really annoying in boss fights not being able to see the champ due to the ball of blue light on my screen.

Would be nice to tone it even more down. Or give people the ability to turn it off as in big fights you see nothing but particle and light effects.

I just wear sunglasses and hope for the best
