Guild Wars 2

I’ve noticed that recently when I try to list/buy something on the trade post there is some bad latency for when I am change my listing price/bid. I would go to change the silver or gold and when i go to click in silver or copper area it registers as a click on the up arrow for the previously selected currency type. I would have to wait a good 5-10 seconds with the mouse hovering over the input box area before I could type in my desired amount.

This issue hasnt been bad, just annoying. However today when I logged in I double clicked an item I was had bid for to see how much the price has risen. And before I even saw the item prices it told my purchase was successful…so there goes 30g.

Now I know that you don’t have to double click (i went back and checked) to view the item in the TP. however my original buy order was still in the same place (top of the list) and when you click on it the mouse is no where near the Buy Instantly button.

I doubt that I will get that gold back, however the TP seems to have an issue with registering where the mouse is/event listeners triggering.

Oh, I forgot to mention that I have recently “upgraded” to windows 10. I do not remember having any issues with stuff like this on windows 8-8.1

Try clearing your TP cache and changing your default browser for windows.

Basically, the TP is a website that is display on a custom browser (using coherent_ui.exe) and suffers from symptoms that any other website hits when dealing with the sheer volume of data it’s supposed to be able to handle. This includes the occasional corrupted cache file, “stickiness” display certain things, and sometimes latency updating seemingly simple changes.

Clearing the cache (instructions in the Account & Technical Support sticky for TP troubleshooting) helps eliminate a number of minor issues that cause major annoyance. Similarly, changing your default web browser for Windows has various hard-to-explain impact on the performance. And for some reason, this matters ore for Windows X. (In a parallel example, another player can’t use the in-game /wiki command with their preferred browser, while it works fine using a different one.)

Your mileage will vary.

Good luck and please keep us posted on your progress, so we can better advise the next person running into the same sort of thing.
