Guild Wars 2

HoD and ET are real good at it. Not that they are exploiting in any way. But kitten is it annoying to be like oh theres only 5 of them only for 50+ of them to render way after you die.

It’s a big problem considering the intended amount of players to be in one place at once.

Not sure what trick you’re talking about. But loading into an invisible group definitely stinks

It’s not a trick. It’s a poorly-implemented server optimization technique. I posted about this the first day the forums were open: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/BUG-Mobs-and-players-suddenly-appearing-pop-in

It’s something ArenaNet needs to fix.

It was kinda funny once. Assaulting garrison on a borderland, get gate down to keep lord room – totally empty. Run in, tab-and spam skills. After a while I didn’t see a single person in the room at all, just massive skill effects everywhere.

If this is because server optimization why is a squad of 10 able to trigger it at will in WvW? 5 of our players standing on a bridge with full view of everything around. Not a enemy in sight and a minute pass then a squad of 10 appears on top of us. If players can trigger at will then it needs to be addressed.
