Guild Wars 2

Recently bought GW2 and I’ve been enjoying the game so far. However respawn rates seem to be ridiculously high, I’m on Fissure of Woe server.

I’ve been attempting to get to a skill point area for a long time but the mobs are spawning in around 20 seconds, meaning clearing a big room of mobs impossible.

Are respawn rates really not adjusted for lower population servers, or adjusted dynamically depending on players in the region?

Also I have an i7-2600k overclocked to 4.5GHz and an HD7970 overclocked to 1125/1575 yet my fps is much lower than it should be even in low population areas Poorly optimized game?

Poorly optimized, definitely. They are working on improving the optimization but I doubt they are gonna improve it significantly.

As for your respawn rates, they are fixed as far as I know, they don’t change based on number of players. What zone are you playing?

P.s. wrong forum section

It was Ascalon City Ruins in the Plains of Ashford. Room with around 10 mobs, a veteran and a small small “boss” type. Mobs would respawn way quicker than I could clear them!

Wrong forum section? The only sections I see are: Crafting, Dynamic Events, Lore, Personal Story, Dungeons, Audio, Black Lion Trading Co, Suggestions, Players helping Players and Guild Wars 2 Discussions. Which would this topic fall under? :S
