Could simply be my internet connection, but my system specs overly exceed the minimum requirements, I’m not running on full graphic quality but have some components on high. When I play the game, I tend to have small lag that seems of low fps and sometimes really nasty lag spikes where my character is able to run around but the skills don’t activate.

I do play other online games such as APB Reloaded and have not had such lag so consistently, and APB is a really demanding game. GW2 gives me these lags almost always during big battles and most of the time when I’m just running around solo in an explorable area. It’s not enough to make the game unplayable, but it can be really frustrating at times.

Could it be the game servers or is it me? Anyone else experiencing this?

Your graphic settings don’t have anything to do with lag – If you have low fps it’s not lag, and if your character moves but you can’t use skill it’s connection lag and not a graphic problem.

If you have both, that’s 2 different problems..

Ah, the Scepter of Orr. You have taken a risk to deliver this. Now I shall return the favor.

then explain when I set quality to high= lag; set quality to low= no lag…
