Guild Wars 2

Can we please increase the amount of visual effects on the Vale Guardian? His attacks just do such little, visually, I can’t tell what hes trying to do, then suddenly im teleported half way across the arena, with my health bar near empty.

I understand why the players have had visual effects nerfed, but the bosses didn’t need it as well. I can’t see the little blue…things…on the floor that he can summon.

That blue rock with red circle is obvious enough, never got hit by that after a few attempts.

I just wanted to say that I have this problem too. I think we are in the minority here though. With practice, I got better at seeing it, and nobody else in my guild had a problem seeing them.

I have a feeling we just have to train ourselves to see these details better.

That being said, visual complaints should be taken seriously. People who suffer from red/green color-blindness are going to have a severe disadvantage here.

I know it’s a little late, but it’d be nice if maybe the guardians held different weapon silhouettes or something as well. So Blue could have a Staff, Red a sword, and Green a Shield or something. Just another visual indicator other than color.

Have you guys tried turning off your post processing? It will reduce the amount of pollution on your screen. Might make the blue AoE easier to spot in time.

Remember fighting VG in the BWE. The Port AoE was nearly invisible due to Particle Effects. They are now more visible than earlier and with a bit practice you can see them now even within the Effects.
