Exactly what the community wanted!
That is what I wanted :P I run on full graphics on an okay computer and never have any lag issues, I somehow fail to believe a Twilight is going to break anything that bad. I call this is a bunch of doomsday prophesying and its not going to even be noticeable…

Time to kill ppl with lags <evil laugh>
Lags just a players fault for running at high settings on a comp that can’t handle it, but the devs have already noted how horrible team fights look. They said they will be toning down some effects but then they say there adding more. I hope they have a setting that allows you to disable effects on the enemies.

On the enemies? Seems like you’d care less about the colorful stuff you’re doing (since most of the time it still provides rings for your aoes) and would rather at least see what the enemy is doing so you can react :S

Running i5-3570k 4.4OC with GTX660 OC @ high settings. During close node fights with nade explosions my fps drops to 25-30fps while normally in other scenarios it would be getting 60+.
Can’t imagine those poor souls running on lesser machines. There is just no in-game setting or option to tone down particle effects.
Not entirely user or player fault. If the best consumer machine out there can’t handle WvW at steady 60fps, I would think its also something to do with the devs.

…. As in, I don’t want an enemy swinging his legendary covering my screen with particle effects so I can’t see what skills he’s actually using…….

Talking about spvp here, not wvw.

It still relates, if a computer can handle 20v20 in WvW, why can’t it handle 5v4 in sPvP…
My fun laughs at your server pride.
Im sure legendaries will be to r80 olny anyway.
I think a topic that has sort of died out is that this game still isn’t very optimized (might be due to particles, but it could be something else).

I believe Jonathan Sharp has mentioned this in the past, but I will repeat it in case you missed it. We are actually working on toning down skill particle effects.
Hi Allie
when you on it plz give option to mute this anoying pistol sounds too – thanks

I know of skill particles (It’s supposed to be ready in 2-4 weeks if I remember correctly? Think Jon mentioned it on some stream once). Will Legendary particles also be toned down?

How will it work? Will the particles’ intensity scale with the number of skills/ players on the field, or will it be a global toning down?
My computer runs effects decently, it only starts becoming a problem when there are too many on the screen.
Frankly I find the legendary weapons to be just another way to cater to casuals and people who enjoy grinding. It’s all well and good when it doesn’t interfere with the actual game but when you add giant glowing trails to every single attack on every single person it mucks up the field of view and makes the game look sloppy.
I don’t think i’ll have lag issues because of this in TPvP but I know it’s going to be obnoxious to look at because the core principle of a legendary weapon is to give it big flashy effects that scream look at me and what I did.
When people said they wanted rewards for PvP this isn’t what they meant. I think they meant gold or gems or character exp. Maybe titles that show top 500, 300, 200, 100, 50, 10, 1. It’s frustrating people because it feels like our PvP balance team is tonedeaf and everytime we ask about the things we want it’s the same corporate response. Solo Q split and rewards are on the way but I can’t say when or i’ll be fired. We hear you loud and clear guys! Frankly I don’t think you do hear us.
PS: When we run a community night which is focused around developers being a captain and hanging out and playing with them it would be nice of you to take the time to enter voice chat. We had first time players that were running around like chickens with their heads cut off needing leadership and plenty of people who were excited just to get the chance to say hi to the legendary John “Chaplan”. People waited hours in that TS ,and were pumped for days, all for developers that never showed.

Well, this thread is completely pointless.
the legendaries don’t add THAT many particles to the game. People use them all the time in WvW. If your computer can’t handle a legandary weapon particle in a 5v5 setting, maybe it’s time for you to upgrade your Windows 95.
That said, this is why we can’t have nice things. We finally get some real prizes to aim for in pvp and all we get is a QQ thread like this. Absolutely pathetic.
theres a new legendary coming out.
its called [LagSwitch]
it will disconnect you on hit
OP weapon imo

I agree with you man. Some people on these forums are just miserable. They will never be satisfied with any amount of changes. It’s easy to spot the repeat offenders. Any thread that pops up, they chime in with their negativity.
And i thought we needed balance in pvp…
I guess what we need is shinnies…

:) thanks for keeping in contact for the community! Love it!
and hopefully, not too much is taken away, I’m actually happy about this and I can’t wait to make a fat black norm thief that shoots unicorns!! Can’t wait!
and LOL this is far from a QQ thread ;) it’s more about rejoice and a little dark humor, I can’t wait to lag troll people :) people just happen assume everything on forums now days!
IIRC I thought one of the devs implied (in a SotG I think?) that legendary skins will be reserved for top players (i.e. tourney winners and the like). I doubt this will be a problem.
Srsly guys? the community is crying since november for better rewards. Now we get themand there’s nothing better to do then punch them in the face? good trolls.
Im happy that i wont play for this AWESOME AND USEFULL glory anymore. gj Anet
I wish we knew how we’re gonna get them tho
There are 2 possible ways…
Rewards from actual organized sponsodred tourneys which would require the player to be a top player on a top team and win.
Or
They are turning legendaries into skins, so the player would have to grind PvE, make the legendary and then conver it to a PvP item
Or
maybe both ?
Either way, it won’t be easy on immediate!
Can’t wait for trollbow tho <3

Cool story (bro). So we can expect this in a year or so?
This is much needed. Particle is a problem, especially to close quarter melee characters.
Particle is only a problem if you play HJ all day long. And ofc on that Zerg victims 8vs8 servers.
Why should anybody QQ about HJ?
Tbh i can´t see the problem in rated matches. They are far away from “too much partivles and lags because of it”. And if they´re not, just scroll down the graphics.
No serious reason to complain about. GW2 has more important problems then ppl crying about lags in HJ.

Disagree here. This issue has nothing to do with HJ. It’s a big part of tournaments either. In a teamfight so many animations are happening that dedicated dodging is not possible due to an animation-cluster. Also for shoutcasters it’s really hard to say what is actually going on. Watch a match and you will see how many things the shoutcaster can’t catch due to a mess of animations. It’s also not really enjoyable for the spectator itself.

2nd way will be epicly stupid if they do it like this. Ur a pvper since launch and u have to go pve for months to get twillight just to convert it so i can use it in pvp? Its now stupid to go pve to make money for gems or fused weps, so bring MUCH MORE pve grind to get legend? Rlly…
They will make it probably as reward for big tournament winners, which means mortals can’t achieve them (but in pve U can do it easily if U just devote time)
The best solution would be buying the skin for glory – sunrise for hmm 1mil glory or something, gettin this ammount needs few months time so it would be like in pve, there shouldn’t be the situation where in pvp a skin need 20x more effeort than in pve (Which is already ith armors).

Warrior Greatsword meta for 2nd half of 2013:
1. Equip legendary Greatsword. The shinier the better
2. When meeting enemies, draw Greatsword and wait for his GPU to automatically overclock/overheat/explode
3. Cast 100-Blades. If using Legendary, the enemy should not be able to react at all
Result: Profit

hmmm. I’m running i5-3570k stock with gtx 660 ti at high settings and it doesn’t drop that low with close nade fights. ( I run engi so nade “spamming” is nothing new). Though I’m not a complete professional when it comes to computer builds and don’t know the exact difference between a regular 660 and a ti. Oh and this is in sPvP so I assume you must mean WvW?
Anyways, legendary spear shark animation for underwater combat ftw! (yes I’m the few who enjoy, mildy, the underwater combat)
Wait a second.. you mean to tell me there are computers out there crappy enough that they lag from legendaries? And people try to play an MMO on them?
Lol!

There are computers, like mine’s, that play GW2 perfectly well except when there’s too many particle effects on the screen. Computers that, may I add, are within the range of the spec requirements defined by Anet, and whose lag only comes from specific situations and not from the game as a whole.
Stupid idea. Toning down legendaries will make them less legendary. I haven’t even got mine yet and people like you are going to make them crap before i can even get mine. ive been in wvw with groups of people with loads of legendaries and dont lag a bit. Upgrade your pc before you downgrade legendaries for people who work their backsides off for.
In reality i don’t know how its could affect performance..Even in wvw in group fights 20vs20 i don’t have any problems with fps on maxed (-supersampling as its effects are mediocre at best) standing in fact on 40-50fps.
They’ll probably give us a slider anyway like they did with culling. I wouldn’t worry.
