Broken effects and graphics...

I hope these are fixed, since it’d be bad if they did the same as with GW1 (some skill effects got their graphical effects broken, like Empathy and Blood Renewal).

For GW2, things that had their axis’ broken:

  • Aegis boon’s “magic off-hand shield” effect (Locks up most of the times to follow the compass, rather than the position of the arm it’s attached to)
  • Claw of Jormag’s “Mist Wave”, the icicle effects point in another way, than the intended direction

Well, there might be more graphical effects that had their axises broken or their animated texture is reversed (Well, the Jeweler crafting corner in Rata Sum, the “molten metal” defys laws of physics and goes back into the melting pot above it. Not sure if this is intended).

There also seems to be problem with light source on the character selection screen, it seems to move around and perhaps follow last character faced direction, sometimes light source will shine off directly from front of the characters, making human and norn characters look unusually white, even if their skin color is set to darker tones.

And there are the model flaws on Charr, like bright spot on Legion helm while the same helm has distorted proportions when worn by female charr, Heavy Plate has small bit of the chain mail stuck on the biceps and left pauldron is slightly tilted to follow the left bicep, clipping into it most of the times.

I’m a casual PvE adventurer, I enjoy combat, adventure and helping, but not farming.
I rarely do PvP or Hard PvE, unless it’s organized.
