I leave the graphics settings on recommended so everything in the game runs smooth. However, when I look at a certain part in the Charr City, the Black Citadel (Where I can look at the outside hills and ruins). My FPS decreases rapidly. I thought this to be expected as when I turn around my FPS is fine. But when I leave to go to other zones all of my FPS is affected unless I look up towards the sky or until I re-log which gets quite frustrating.

My graphics card is an Nvidia GeForce 560 Ti.

I don’t think a screenshot would be helpful in this kind of situation as it’s an FPS issue not a graphical one.

So without ANet knowing where exactly you are standing and what exactly you’re looking at and with your ambiguous “when I look at a certain part in the Charr City, the Black Citadel (Where I can look at the outside hills and ruins)” and knowing there are like 3 places in Black Citadel where you can look at the hills and ruins – they sure have a big chance to pinpoint the problem. I understand.
Screenshot would be detrimental actually, you are right.

It appears to have a chance to happen when I’m loading into a different zone. Changing screen resolution fixes this until I change zone again. Doesn’t always happens when I’m looking outside the Charr city apparently, but it can trigger it.
