Hi.

I have crashed both today and yesterday at the exact same fractal fight, i.e. the ice elemental final boss of the dredge fractal. Yesterday I was on level 20 with my mesmer and today I was on lvl 1 with my guardian. Both times I was simply running / auto attacking. I’ve been playing guild wars 2 since the pre-launch and these 2 crashes are the only 2 instances that I’ve ever crashed playing guild wars 2. The crash was a full computer freeze and not a crash to desktop.

It might be a coincidence, but the crash happened both times in the same fractal fight after playing many guild wars 2 hours during both days.

I report to have crash A THIRD TIME in the EXACT same boss fight (Ice elemental final boss of the dredge fractal), and have not crashed in any other places, either in GW2 or any other games. I’ve been doing fractals for 8 hours in the past 2 days with no progression whatsoever, because I always get the kittening dredges on my third instances with the kittening ice elemental. I’m kitten to no extent to have crashed 3 times in a row in my third instance of the fractals and therefore having failed progression after investing so much time in it.

This was again with my guardian, on lvl 1 of the fractals, simply walking and auto attacking with my staff, while the boss was halfway done.

Also, nobody else in my party is crashing.

EDIT : Disregard this comment. Somebody in my party DID crash, 5 minutes after me, during the Ice Elemental.

N.B. : I’ve done the Ice Elemental with no problem whatsoever in the past weeks since the beginning of the fractals. I’ve been doing fractals every day or two since their release.
