Guild Wars 2

hi so just started today, set my self up in gate of madness (cause madness). so couple questions:
1. any way to turn down the light bloom if possible? tried lowing gamma makes too dark.
2. is there way to play on other servers without having to transferring and how does that work?
3. any helpful tips for a new Sylvari necromancer?

1 — No idea, I don’t mind the bloom.
2 — Practically speaking there are no “other servers” now, except for WvW where you can only play for your home team. I think the guesting option is still there as I’ve seen people suggest using it as a way to hop maps; it is accessed in the character select screen as best I recall. As it is you will be jumbled up with a mix of people from all servers in your region, be that NA or EU (some weight is given to your home server/guild/friends to help you end up with them). The better question is whether there’s any way to play just on your server, as there are unofficial RP servers that really wish random non-RPers would stop showing up, staring in bafflement, and griefing the RP sessions.

3 — Quite a few! But there are so many tips I will point you to the sticky in the top of the Players Helping Players forum that is full of hints and tips and omg I wish I knew thats.

Addendum to 2 — If you are grouped with someone and are on a different instance of the same map from them (their party portrait will be a silhouette), you can right click their portrait and pick “Join in [Map]” to be transported to the same instance of the map as them. If you get an error, their map is full.

You can try turning off ‘Post-processing’. I think that may affect bloom.

Welcome to Tyria, and happy adventuring!

YES YOU HAVE JOINED THE MASTER RACE OF NECROS, btw race doesn’t effect class play unless for racial skills. Run a minion build till about lvl60 if your just roaming the world the. Afterwards find a powermancer of hybrid build and that should play great but find what ever build best suits your needs
