it’s probably nothing on your end and a result of alot of server traffic, I’ve noticed on weekends i lose alot of fps at times

it doesn’t help this game is poorly optimized, i’ve got a beast of a computer that should be able to blow this game out of the water, but get it in WvW and highly populated area’s and fps drops

Try these ingame graphics settings:

Full Screen: 1680 × 1050 depending on your monitor
Refresh Rate: Default
Frame Limiter: Unlimited
Interface Size: Normal
Animation: High
Antialiasing: FXAA This may need to be change if you don’t get good results
Environment: High
LOD distance: High
Reflections: Terrain & Sky or this could be set to None if you don’t mind not seeing the reflections in water
Textures: High
Render Sampling: Native
Shadows: Low
Shaders: High
Post Processing: High
Character Model Limit: Medium or low
Character Model Quality: Medium or low
Best Texture Filtering: Unchecked
Depth Blur: Checked
Effects LOD: Checked
High-Res Character Textures: Unchecked
Vertical Sync: Unchecked

If this doesn’t improve fps then there is a driver or hardware issue going on. The game is a balance between eye candy and fps you may need to adjust more setting till you get what works for you.

Opinions are like ______ everyone has one I could
put the correct term in but not everyone has kittens

Server traffic does not effect game FPS.
Check that your CPU is running at 3.6 GHz while playing the game. Check that your graphics card is performing as it should be.

Wow that’s pretty cool that you have taken the time to suggest these settings.

Thank you

I personally recommend leaving FXAA off. The further away you are from an object, the uglier and blurrier it looks with it on.
