Yea, I don’t think its a bug either. If you look closely you’ll see that the icon is slightly different. But I agree that a personal counter would be helpful and motivational. I know I already lost count of my number.

Lets talk about the new Gem conversion [Merged]

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Archangelic.7036

To me, the easiest way to do the conversion page would be to have it set for the player to input how many gems they want, and have it say how much gold it will cost them. Or how much gold they want, and have it say how many gems they need. […]

I exactly agree with Keysha! That would have been a true improvement.

But I don’t even need an improvement. Just the old Interface back, with the option to buy exactly the number of gems I want, would be enough for me!

Please re-consider Anet. At least offer some smaller quantity like 100 gems.
Thank you

FPS Issue with the 9/9 patch [merged]

Location: Germany
Times: 09/19, 09/20, 09/21: 9:00GMT – 13:00GMT
World: Gandara
Maps: Several, most notably: Wayfarer Foothills, Caledon Forest, WVW
Description: It mainly happens at world bosses and in zergs in WVW. Maw and Jungle Worm (less than 1FPS) are the worst for me, I think it is because on those two world bosses people stack up the most. In comparison at Golem II and Shatterer it is not quite as bad (about 3FPS). For example, I melee Shatterer while most range. I’m not lagging during the fight but get a slide show as soon as people start running down for their chest at the end. In quiet areas I have about 30FPS.
Ticket: No ticket submitted.

- Specs: Lenovo Laptop, i3, 4GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce 840M
- before patch I was on medium to high graphics and had higher FPS at world bosses (~10FPS). Now I run lowest setting possible
- I also seem to have longer loading screens than pre-patch
- sometimes the client freezes
- some DCs but not too bad
- my partner on the same internet (so internet related issues can be excluded) is fine, although his FPS drops from 90 (quiet area) to 15-20 at Maw. pre-patch he remembers having about 35 there.

I hope you guys can find the issue soon because it makes certain areas of the game just about unplayable for me.

Pavilion Boss Blitz Organization

This morning I found an organized overflow really fast but now not so much. So if there is a guild doing this organized in the following days/weeks I would like an invite as well please

Boss Blitz plan, pool ideas here

Hi,

I’ve done the Blitz and got gold on 2 different overflows a total of 6 times in a row, 2 were silver and 4 were gold.
What we did was have 6 commanders flag up and stand close to the pen of the boss that that commander would take.
Then the commander let everyone know via chat how many more they needed at which boss. (Usually the commanders would aim for 10 people each)
Then we would start killing the bosses, all the time giving updates on which boss has how much hp. Around 10-5% the commander and its group would stop dps’ing until the rest caught up.
Once the last group arrived at 5% everyone went all out.
The only times we failed were for two reasons:
1. Boom Boom Baines is hard to keep at 5% because of the healing turret that spawns
2. Pyro is often ranged from the cliff above and when they stop dps’ing the boss de-aggros and recovers all its HP (instead someone needs to jump down and keep it engaged)

Hopefully we can get the word out so that more overflows can use this tactic and succeed. I personally found the difficulty then just right to be fun and the reward (since the update) good enough to keep me going.

Game Updates: Traits

I already have a Engineer at lvl 80. When I leveled it, I immediately got Speedy Kits at lvl 30 to have access to permanent swiftness – makes getting around and lvling alot easier.

Now I decided to lvl another Engineer post patch. Nevermind that it takes till lvl 35 now till I have the grandmaster trait where Speedy Kits is…to actually unlock Speedy Kits I need 100% map completion on Frostgorge Sound!

I find it ridiculous that a first grandmaster trait, unlockable at lvl 35, requires the completion of a task in a lvl 70-80 zone -.-

I’m also pretty sure someone who starts this game now would be quite confused and frustrated by this.

Texture Rendering Issue

I actually didn’t change anything about my drivers but I re-installed them anyway and now the problem is fixed. Still not sure what the original cause was though.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction!

Texture Rendering Issue

in Account & Technical Support

Posted by: Archangelic.7036

Archangelic.7036

Since about an hour ago my GW2 client doesn’t render the textures of armors anymore.
The issue definitely doesn’t lie with my computer as every other games I loaded up look just fine.
To give you an idea of what it looks like, I attached a screenshot while running max settings (AMD Radeon HD 7770) and a screenshot that my husband took while running lower settings (AMD Radeon HD 6450). The textures on the screenshot with the lower settings still look better than mine on highest!
This happens with any and all armor. But as you can see, the background (building, water etc.) looks just fine and also better on the higher settings than the lower ones, just like it should.

Anyone have any idea of what’s going on?
Thanks, Arch

I agree that some kind of reward would be nice. I would be happy already if my counter in the achievement tab would keep going indefinitely instead of stopping at 1000. I don’t even want any achievement points for it but maybe the title could somehow reflect how many people you have ress’ed (e.g. it displays the number of people you’ve ress’ed)

We are on Aurora Glade at the moment but with guesting it should be alright at first. We would be willing to transfer worlds once we get to know the guild a bit.

Hi there!

my boyfriend and I love to do dungeons!
So therefore we were wondering if there is any dungeon guild that is friendly, competent and loves dungeons as much as we do?

We both have most classes at lvl 80 and fully geared (Mesmer, Guardian, Warrior, Elementalist, Thief) and we both have the Dungeon Master title.

If you want to know anything else about us, contact us either on forum or in game

P.S.: Might have one or two friends who would be interested in joining aswell

Just try each dungeon and see what you like best. Also if you don’t mind to mix and match you could get one part of armor from one dungeon and the other parts from another.

Also keep in mind that you can group up with EU players, no matter their world. Using gw2lfg.com usually gives you a full party relatively quickly.

The rings you are asking about are probably Ascended rings and the weapon skins the fractals weapon skins. So yes, they only drop in fractals.

In general, I like the fact that you can’t wp zerg anymore as it promotes team work.

But I just did CoF path3 with my usual group (e.g. we do CoF p1 in 10 minutes just fine) and it took us quite a while to kill the last boss. This boss likes to knock people around and if it knocks you into the lava you pretty much die instantly and because of the high DoT, your party members can’t get you back up.

So you spend about 10 minutes lying around in the lava hoping the rest of your team mates can kill it .. or all die in the same way and we can try again. This is quite annoying and I think not really the idea.

Conclusion: While no more wp zerging is great it seems to makes the design fail at the CoF p3 end boss.
