Legendary Vinetooth and Nevermore Volume 1

Hi people,
I’ve been having the same exact problem with Nevermore. I’ve been trying all week to complete this first collection and have been unable to find people to do Vinetooth Prime or even solo my way through the Eastwatch events needed to activate it to then advertise on LFG. I’ve tried advertising on LFG to build support, but people just join group and leave if the Prime isn’t primed (lol). I even attempted a shoutout via a commander running a mass Auric Basin anchored defend Tarir event to try and rally support by reaching many players at once (hoping some of them needed Vinetooth too) and it was a no go.

I can understand that not everyone wants/needs to kill Vinetooth and
I’ll keep trying to help other players where I can with their bits and bobs. I’m just not sure what to do next. I don’t want to give up on Nevermore. :O Any ideas? Maybe there’s potential to tweak the collection so it’s not so tied up in multiple group events?

Very high ping since 23 June 2015 update

Managed to fix things mostly at my end finally! After three weeks of almost no playtime.
Updated the hell out of the wireless drivers on my brother’s laptop. Everything seems to be running fine now. (What doesn’t help is he swore everything was up to date and I didn’t really want to tamper with his machine). :P
Anyone who is still having this problem, please check that your drivers are up to date whether you’re wireless or not. I guess it was coincidence that the June23rd update happened around the same time new drivers came out? :s
I hope this helps people!
A response from Anet would have still been appreciated, but I understand they’ve had their hands full…

Extreme Lag After Patch

I’ve posted fully about this over on the “Very high ping since 23 June 2015 update” topic as while I’ve been lagging I’ve seen the ping spikes at the same time, sometimes past 2000.

I have also had spikes in my ping since the update which has been making the game almost unplayable. My ping goes from it’s usual 100-200ish and then it’s like I lag and my actions/interactions/combat freezes, my character jerks forward (or back) similar to rubberbanding and I see other players jerk around too. Once while this was happening I had the setting window open and saw my ping at over 2000! :O
I’ve also died randomly while running near high places because the game thinks I’ve run off them. On my ranger, my pets are standing far away from where I am on screen like they think I’m standing somewhere else. O_o

I only tried to sPvP like this once and it was terrible. At the mo I’m only logging in to do PvE dailies and help out my brothers and friends. I really want to play properly, especially as my best gamer friend has just reinstalled the game and I want to help him out.

I <3 Gw2 Arenanet please reply. Or if it’s being responded to in another post, please direct us there. I’ve never had this problem before. I play on a laptop that can handle gw2 on high graphical settings. The problem remains the same even if I set everything graphically to low. I use wireless BT infinity broadband, but I’ve seen someone using fibre broadband is having the same issue? :s

Okay, I can’t think of any other info to add. Please help.
