Guild Wars 2

The past five times I have done Tequatl my game has crashed in the middle of the event. The latest one tonight happened about 15 seconds before the end of the event and cost me both the rewards and the Power Play achievement. My wife’s PC has also crashed three times during Teq since the last update that I know of, and maybe more since she plays during the day while I’m at work. We have seen many others complaining about the same in-game, so this is clearly not isolated to us or our network. Please have someone look at the crash reports submitted during this event and release a fix if possible.

If it helps, I am running Windows 7 via Bootcamp on a 2011 iMac 21.5" with Core i7-2600 and AMD Radeon HD 6770M. Hers is a custom build with Windows 8.1 on an MSI Z97I board, i7-4790K, and AMD Radeon R9 285. Both have plenty of RAM for running the game and the latest Microsoft patches.

The game has only crashed once for me anywhere else in the past two months we have been back, and twice for her, but since the last patch it crashes at Teq constantly. As this now seems to be one of the most difficult and lucrative events in the game, it is a truly horrible place to experience repeated crashing. Hope an underlying issue can be found and resolved.

At the least, I don’t suppose it would be possible to give credit/rewards for events you participate in but get booted before completion?

The way to do Teq is to put every graphic settings you have to minimum for the duration of the event since GW is mainly run on CPU a big event like Teq can crash a PC if you have regular graphic settings.

I always play on minimum settings and it’s only started in the last 2 days for me. Massive lag as soon as Teq starts, to the point where chat is calling the end of the 2nd burn phase while my UI is telling me there is still a 1.20 left to defend the charging laser :/

This goes on for the whole fight, with me minutes out of sync with what’s happening in chat, and goes back to normal as soon as the fight is over. Today I actually DC’d as well, but was able to get back into my map because I was in a defence team.
