Guild Wars 2

I basically cannot play this new area. I lag so bad, i sometimes stand there for 1-2 min after casting a skill. Trying to use aspect jumps is virtually impossible especially with them now being timed jumps.

I’ve been having a strange issue for at least couple of weeks now in gw2, where i’m unable to interact with objects/nodes/npc’s etc. i’ll click on a node for eg: and nothing happens, sometimes i click half a dozen times and still nothing. Sometimes if i walk away and return to the node, it works, but not always.

This is not due to a typical lag, it seems to be a separate issue, but some type of lag. I have my mini out and it often don’t lag, but i still can’t interact with objects.

In Dry Top, i have both the usual lag and this other one where i can’t interact with objects. it’s been nothing but frustration one after another and i really haven’t been able to enjoy the content.

Even in the instanced story parts, i’m having to click on npc’s twice to activate them. I don’t believe this is on my end since i play other games and only have this problem in gw2.

Devs please, would it be possible to at least remove the timer thing from aspects? I’m basically having a 1-2 seconds delay after hitting the skill b4 the jump occurs and sometimes even longer, making it impossible to do any of the jumping parts. I’ve lost count the amount of times i’ve died standing on one of the high areas then lag would hit and a while later, finding myself down below, totally disoriented and not knowing how i got there.

Thanks for reading, any help would be appreciated.

If it is happening with GW2 (not ONLY Dry Top) you will have a much better chance having this topic moved to the technical forum instead.

I personally have had very few issues with the zone (even FPS wise, a slight drop with particles, but nothing big)

Try checking the technically forum and see if anyone else seems to be having the issue. You can never say “it is not on my end” because even if something else works fine, doesn’t mean it’s not something being throttled by your modem/router/isp/tunnel.

Just want to add, my rig is top of the line, so i know it’s not that, however i do have a high ping rate living in Australia, (lowest i’ve seen is around 270). So yea my internet is crap, but i wasn’t having bad lags for a long time except at large events, until Dry Top. I lag there bad even just running around and when there aren’t many ppl around.

I have had this issue interacting with objects on an odd occasion in the past, but nothing as bad as it is now. I believe it got really bad after one of the patches, 17th June i think. Oddly enough, it seems to happen worse in some maps than others. For eg: in SouthSun, almost every node i interact with, nothing happens, while i was in Harathi just yesterday and had no problems at all. So i’m really baffled why this is happening.

Anyway, hope some of this info will help, fingers crossed.

I’m having the very same issue with Dry Top, didn’t happened to me until today in the morning and it seems even worse at night, the lag is unbearable and I saw different people complaining about the same thing. Most of the maps seems to be working just fine, 0 lag or delay but Dry Top, maybe a server performance issue?
