Guild Wars 2

This last patch is the second patch where right afterward my FPS takes a massive hit from 60ish to 15ish dropping to less than 10 if any kind of action is happening. If I move from medium settings (unplayable) to best performance I gain maybe 5 FPS.

Don’t remember how long it took when this last happened, but it’s been a while now since the patch (Winter) and so far no WvW or enjoyment.

I’ve DLed so many beta and legacy drivers, I’ve read the forums for tweaks and supposed fixes, and tried everything. I’ve disabled SLI and re-enabled it with no difference. This is not a problem on my end.

Might as well throw in my specs:

i7 2670QM
Nvidia 560m SLI
8gb RAM
Intel 128gb SSD

Basically when I use Infiltrator’s arrow, disabling shot, or infiltrator’s strike I don’t have any lag between the button press and the animation, however when I shadowstep, evade backwards, or port there appears to be a stuttering bouncing around for a second. It’s like the game doesn’t know where to put me and needs a split second to figure it out.

This is highly annoying, and seeing how all the other weapon skills work fine and there’s no input lag, I’m not sure what the cause might be. I turned down my graphics settings but to no avail.

It’s really hampering my gameplay and makes me not want to use those skills, but they’re the best for a mobile thief build.
