Am I the only one…?

Thats a relief, thanks. I had a feeling thats how the forge works but I wanted to make sure before I dedicate all those mats to upgrading it. Better start working on it.

So I’ve made a stupid decision and bound my Advanced Spinal Blades to the wrong character. Will upgrading it to the ascended form in the Mystic Forge make it account bound again so I can bind it to another character?

Thank you in advance.

I dont see many charr guardians here.. Are there so few of them? Anyway, thats my Guardian, Grog Brightmane, in Vigil Armor.

Dyes used are:
Sapphire
Ancient Silver
Midnight Rust

Thanks everyone. All this input has is very helpful.

See Part 2.2 here to know what parts to look for GW2

Thanks alot! I went through the stickies and for some reason this one avoided my eye. This is exactly what I was looking for.

You say ur budget is low. What is that xactly becouse in gaming/computing terms low could mean 700$. Where as for a less avid PC user it could mean $200.

Etherway we would need a figure to help put a rig together for u.

My budget ceiling would be around 550$

Sorry for not stating this sooner.

i would go for a new pc. i have the same gpu and i know it’s not that good but the rest of your pc is old too. just like what people told me an upgrade is the best way to improve performance.

Can you recommened any general pc setups that will go well with gw2?

Hello everyone.

I happen to have a small amount of money avilable and I was thinking of using it to get my machine up to date. As of right now I’m seeing around 20 fps in pve on low-med graphics settings. On big WvW skirmishes I have to get all settings to low to achieve a “playable” rate of fps.

I dont know too much when it come to hardware so I thought maybe some of you could help me.

Comp Info (taken out of dxdiag):
CPU – Pentium® Dual-Core CPU E5400 @ 2.70GHz (2 CPUs), ~2.7GHz
OS – Windows 7 32bit
RAM- 4gb
GPU – NVIDIA GeForce 9400 GT

I was thinking of upgrading my graphics card and leaving the rest as it is, but, as I said, I’m no expert and cant say for sure if thats the bottle neck in my system.

p.s: Please take into consideration my budget is quite low :P
Edit: Budget ceiling is around 550$

9/10, very nice.

Just Odoakar here.

mmm 5/10. It’s hard for me to see this name on a charr, maybe its just me, sorry..
Most charr names I see on npcs sound alot more guttural.

I have 2 charr Characters:
Galakrond – Engineer
Grog Bightmane – Guardian

I’m getting some pretty nasty latency aswell. The lag waves started appearing today at noon, making the game very hard to play.

Playing from Israel on Gunnar’s Hold.

When I log in to other games I can always use Tab and Alt-Tab to jump between the username and password fields without touching my mouse.

For some reason the GW2 launcher does’nt support this function.

While being a minor addition, I still think it deserves its place in this forum and I’m sure alot of people miss this while trying to log in.
