Hi! i have a pretty kittenty laptop for gaming (a mac *shock *horror) and i need to reduce my settings to the very lowest in order to have a smooth gaming experience. This is partly cause of my mac and that i’m in Australia.

Anywho because of this i can’t see most of the animations of my opponent. For instance if a warrior is blocking, it flails its arm about as if it’s attacking, but it’s actually blocking. Also, i cannot tell apart from phantasms and clones when i am against a mesmer.

I was wondering if anyone else has this problem and if they’ve noticed anything subtle which can help me determine whether or not the opponent is blocking.

OR

If there is a setting that i change which won’t hinder my gameplay.

THANK YOU

*NOTE: Everyone in pvp and their skills are observable yet it doesn’t seem to hinder my gameplay. However when in WvW and i raise the bar a little, then all hell breaks loose. There an explanation for this? thank you

Uh u can set them all to low or none except for character limit. Character limit has to be atleast medium or u wont see animations.

I use Auto detect which puts eveything to lowest, then I make it slightly shiny by putting shaders on medium and animations on medium.
After I do that, I can actually see the gold in my juggernaut.

I mostly play for the new Free-For-All arena in PvP lobby.
