Bugs from 16th Patch [Compiled]
25% drop in frame rate, compared to before patch (20 to 15), and any time I open the inventory, there’s a 66% drop in frame rate to 6. Borderline playable
For those tired of the random voices and stuff (although may be funny), just turn off Dialog sound in Sound options (for those who don’t know this option). You won’t hear ANY voice in game but it could be a temp fix for that annoyance.
A side note: I usually do that at Thaumanova as those coughing get annoying >.<
Oh and about the issue with XP bar and minimap, it seems like it’s missing a texture down there, there’s no background behind skills as well (seems like several things in game is missing textures).
Guild chat seems to randomly disappear as well. Not sure this was stated. Seems to happen with map chat too. Switching chat tabs always clears guild chat.
for guild chat, i have a tab just for guild chat. i took the advice here.
unrep then re-rep, no go
changed status to invis, game crashed,
changed status to online, un-rep then re-rep and i can now type stuff in guild chat
however, if you wp or flip to a different chat tab, guild chat gets wiped. this doesn’t happen with any other type of chat
edit: skill point at stormbluff beacon in blood tide coast is bugged. cannons can only fire into the ledge as they don’t aim up slightly like they used to.

This update has totally hosed my visuals. Its like I am laggy but I know nothing on my end has changed. Only change is the game update.
The moment I started moving I could sense the choppy appearance and jumping on platforms in fractals was a nightmare….please wake me from this.
I concur that my FPS dropped from about a 25 constant to and 11 and my ping jumped from about a 80 to 200+ checked my connection and pinged the servers remote from game and they are fine but ingame OMG SO SLOW RESPONSE!
REAL GOOD!
The Zeke T Freak machine: zero defects.
UI active = fps inestable and drop, UI off = fps like before patch.
UI active = fps inestable and drop, UI off = fps like before patch.
UI off is new meta.
Jokes aside, I noticed this same thing.
Guess i’ll repost since my thread will probably get buried and i might as well add to this thread :S
Pets set to passive/avoid combat will still behave aggressively.

yea ive tried the advice given. didnt work for me. didnt crash but just didnt work.
- Ranger Pets still take falling damage when running down stairs.
- Ranger Pets no longer follow the avoid combat function if you have it turned on before initiating combat. They will heel if you F3 them during combat though.
So annoying
Another bug i found:
As soon as you hit the water, while using the diving googles, the color of the underwear changes and the the character model looks broken, as u can see in the “holes” in the left and right leg.
This happened in metrica province, i didn’t try the other diving googles yet.

Guild workshop upgrade in guild is NOT working and only one build can be queued at a time in my guild.
- Guild Chat doesn’t work for 1/2 the guilds
- 50% vote threshold doesn’t work
- First Person problems: aegis, longbows, items which show over characters head
- Sound bugs (on both skills and dialogue)
- Loading Screen is pushed up like the camera (so 1/3 of screen is black)
- Report a bug is messed up
- FPS drops
- Sluggish Camera Rotation
- Changing Reward Track crashes game
- Can’t buy traits (I haven’t verified this but have heard it)
- Minimap has a gap (which causes points to go over the screen)
You can’t buy traits, you can only buy the ones you have unlocked already. ( verified with other people in chat )
just patience https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zaGUr6wzyT8 they will fix it all so just stay happy and play and find them nasty bugs so we help them as much as we can n_n
Good point. Just let’s keep reporting any bug found and hope they can bring up a fix asap. Not that someone did this but keep complaining over and over about the same things or even cursing won’t help (I haven’t seen these things around actually, just saying ) Keep calm and report :P
Found another bug. Vinewrath is missing it’s “neck” Or rather the stem that holds the flower up. Now it’s just a floating flower.
Oh just a thing guys: please read back this thread (and others if possible) before reporting things, this thread has only 3 pages it’s not so much. I have seen posts after posts saying the exact same thing. It just gets tiresome for us and devs to keep track of the issues.
They should just rollback the whole patch since it seems it broke a LOT of stuff, it’s easier for them to roll back and re-implement the whole thing (THIS TIME STRAIGHT) rather than trying to fix stuff. It’s not like it was a BIG patch anyways, the most intensive thing was the stability stack changes.
Yes to many bugs:
- Guild Chat doesn’t work for 1/2 the guilds (Need to open LFG Window and change to invisible and back to visible to guild chat work)
- 50% vote threshold doesn’t work
– First Person problems: aegis, longbows, items which show over characters head
– Sound bugs (on both skills and dialogue, just away and char sai dialogue)
– Loading Screen is pushed up like the camera (so 1/3 of screen is black)
– Report a bug is messed up
– FPS drops
– Sluggish Camera Rotation
– Changing Reward Track crashes game
- Can’t buy traits (I haven’t verified this but have heard it)
– Minimap has a gap (which causes points to go over the screen)
Ok maybe i am blind but one of my characters who did not have map completion is now stuck at 99%. When i checked (repeatedly) every area showed completed 100%
I just need a POI but i cant find it. A second characters instead coul get map completion easily (i just needed a couple POIs) related to LS. My remaining characters who all had 100% already are fine.
This is usually the Chantry of Secrets PoI that’s missing.

I’ve also experienced massive FPS drops
Normal Idle FPS: 31
Idle FPS now: 14 (cities) 17 (on outside maps)
I’m already on all the lowest settings imaginable for the game; FoV also does not impact FPS positively. Only thing that adjusts it is lowering the screen resolution to bump FPS from 17 to 19, so very little difference.
Game is unplayable now for extended periods due to choppiness.
Just putting in my two cents on the bug I’m experiencing.
Can’t buy traits, only one shows up.
MASSIVE amounts of slow loading, especially in HoTM.
Odd, because I was playing this morning post-patch and literally everything was fine until I loaded the client again this afternoon.

The “Guild Defender” skin also seems to have lost its textures…

After the patch, every 8 seconds my game and audio hiccups, resulting in a half second of garbled audio and a game lockup.
Game is now unplayable.
Also in EOTM the two towers Tyrone’s Perch n Stonegaze. The npc’s do not man the cannons after building. They just flicker back and forth like glitching from the Burning oil disappearing and reappearing.

similar problem but game doesn’t crash. sound levels seem way off and constantly changing. for instance, an NPC a long distance away yelled something and i heard it though they were right next to me and it was louder than the active combat noises right in front of me.
Chat text in the speech bubble while using party channel shows up as dark green instead of black.

add me to the guild chat not working, plus, my guildies are telling me that my name shows up as online, grayed out ‘unknown’ when I’m logged in. Also the /bug reporting screen is giving me numbers for item descriptions in the drop down menu.
Bugs from the spanish forum (we got some specific ones due to translation strings missing):
- Bug: In the 3 Headed Wurm, at Amber: When Amber eats you, there’s a room where there’s an structure that you need to break to exit. You can’t do damage to that now.
- Bug: The wurms are missing it’s texture.
- Bug: The spanish report bug form gots a lot of translation missing, replaced by just numbers. This also seems to happen for some weapons.
- Bug: 500 achievement points after first quest when you create a character, seems bugged.
- Bug: Items with same exact name can’t stack (total kit makeover, as example).
- Bug: Guild chat is not working properly.
- Bug: We can hear other proffesion shouts like if we were casting them (with our voice).
- Bug: Can’t buy items from NPCs that aren’t usable for our proffesions (As example: dungeon weapons for the achievement).
- Bug: Hall of monuments crashes the game.
- Bug to be confirmed: Down-grading youself from a guild doesn’t spawn a prompt, it actually doesn’t let you downgrade (it only happens in 1 of my guilds, I can downgrade on a different one).
- Suggestion: Put back the downed bar on allies to red instead of green in the UI. It’s not intuitive and it confuses new players.

FPS dropped from solid 40 to 20. (iMac 2011 with AMD graphics)
Lower resolution helps a bit, the new camera collision should be disabled (all the way left).
Normal field of fiew.
Hiding the UI does infact make the game super smooth again, enabling it again and youre back to slow frames. Ping seems normal, we all 5 had around 100, its just framerate is super low.
Also pressing “N” to show pvp score window freezes/drops frames to 3 for a second.

Apparently, they decided to end support of Windows XP without telling anyone. Game will not start now. I get music, but the actual window/screen won’t pop up, instead I get a flickering fullscreen window that won’t go away unless I shut off my computer.
- Bug: Can’t buy items from NPCs that aren’t usable for our proffesions (As example: dungeon weapons for the achievement).
It has been confirmed by a red post as really a bug. https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Vendor-List-Limit-Vigil-Priory-Whispers
sPvP tracks are bugged.
This is the patch they delayed by 6 days to ensure it was “polished”.
More like a polished starts with a t and ends with a d.
If I displayed this level of competency at my job, I’d get fired.
-StreamingClient does not work. Had to download entire patch in order to play the game.
It did work for me. Playing at 25%. But once inside, I couldn’t know how much of the download was done, and it was unintuitive to check when it did finished, so I disabled it.
- Suggestion: Put an status bar somewhere inside the game if you are downloading files.

I can confirm the trait vender is only selling the traits i already have. I am leveling a guardian at the moment. I haven’t had time to check any of my other toons yet to see if this is an issue with them as well.
Add Blade Shards to the list of things that aren’t stacking correctly.
Tried fresh install of game after update. No option to install guild wars 2 into program files x86 is avaliable. Client will only run from temp folder
I tried to do a story instance and the person I was supposed to talk to in the instance kept showing me my inventory.
Voices carry across map in the borderlands.
Report a bug in the interface/drop down menus show random (numbers)
Can confirm the voices thing and Guild chat not working.
Not surprised support for Win XP was nixed, it’s been a dead OS since last year.
Forever known as “that slow guardian who can’t jump worth crap”.
I’ve been trying to get into the game for quite some time with no luck … ETA or are the Developers giving themselves and us the night off?
Post second patch:
Voices are still happening.
Guild chat still is erased anytime you waypoint (even if you don’t change maps).
A skill point in Bloodtide Coast is broken; the cannonballs at Stormbluff Beacon skill point explode immediately, even if you press the Fire button long enough.
And the bug report window is still broken.
They fixed 2 bugs with the last patch, some server crash and the vendor bug…that’s it?
Weapon does not seem to scale to your character size until you click preview again while the preview window is up or check the other preview options(stowed/wielded/weapon only)

Fixing stuff takes time. It’s good enough that Anet is working on them. For the meantime, while they fix the others, we don’t have to deal with the vendor’s bug. Isn’t that better than waiting until they finally fix all of them?

Ranger pets attack even in passive mode! And tons of bugs more like others said..
When trying to change my in-game status from online to away or offline the game crashes (post patch)
Hitting H to get to hero panel make the game insta crash to repairing data game window. It’s the first time in 2 years i see that window.
Don’t think it’s been mentioned yet, the Silverwastes reward track in sPvP is broken. If i make it my active reward track, it just switches back to the previous reward track as soon as I exit the tab or start a match, making it impossible to progress the SW track any further(mine is stuck at 70% complete until this gets fixed)
