Guild Wars 2

Hey forum

I just noticed that my macbook decharges the battery whilst playing GW2 ?
After an hour or so, when the battery reach 94 %, the charger starts charging the battery again.
It is not long ago that i reset the SMC, so i dont think that is the problem.

Have any of you guys noticed that same?

Hi, Same problem here, MacBook pro 2012 (no retina) , i think cause MacBook use main Graphic card (Nvidia) afther a HUGE session of farm " 7h" and all device on ( Cinemadisplay – razer mice+keybord – Usb headset – Time Capsule all on 12v USB Hug) i arrive at 20/25% of my battery autonomy. I dont know if this is good or not for battery life on MacBook Pro.
Anyone have idea?

Do you mean that the battery goes up to 100% then while you are playing it drops down to 94% and then starts charging back up to 100%?
If that’s what you mean it actually has nothing to do with GW2 at all.

Your macbooks battery is a Lithium ion battery and with Li-ion batteries they last a lot longer and run better if they are always either draining or gaining power, they don’t like sitting on full or sitting on empty. Apple purposefully programs OSX to drain the power a little bit after a while of being on 100% because it isn’t good for the power to remain at a constant 100%. This is completely normal and expected behaviour so don’t worry at all
