Guild Wars 2

I was able to walk past the first vine wall without destroying it and not crash on a later play-through. I couldn’t walk past any of the later ones, and it’s still possibly somewhat random.

Hmm… Tried it again on a different character with minimum graphics settings and fullscreen, and it still crashed.

Maybe one side of the helix is less crash prone than the other? It’s really hard to tell which side you’re on, so it’d be hard to pick the right one, if that’s the case.

Ah, but unfortunately, bugs ended up ruining the next mission for me too.

I think this might be an old one that still isn’t fixed. During the final fight, an updraft forced me straight up and out of the mission area, ending the mission entirely. My Reaper kills way too slowly for me to bother trying that one again any time soon…

Ah, ok. NoScript was blocking the symbol from appearing.

Anyway, I managed to finish it without a crash!
I turned down all my graphic options to minimum and switched from Windowed Fullscreen to Fullscreen.

I can’t say whether that helped the issue or I just got lucky, but hopefully, it will work for the rest of you too.

Don’t see any way to edit my post, so sorry about the double post.

Wanted to add, my NVIDIA driver version is 382.53. Disappointed to see that 384.94 fares no better.

I’m using a GTX 1080, so maybe it is an NVIDIA issue. Using Windows 10 as well.

Someone posted on Reddit a couple days ago about the issue on a Mac, so it can’t be just a PC issue.

Every time I get to the helix near the end of the mission, my client crashes after the first vine wall.
I have no idea what’s causing it, it’s not a connection issue, but it’s very frustrating to get all the way through a mission like that and crash so close to the end repeatedly.
