Graphics Options - Players being hidden

Which graphics option is it to disable/enable players characters being hidden when taking part in big events?

I turned my graphics down all the way to best performance and noticed that when taking part in large events (world bosses for example) some players characters are disappearing, just their name is being shown.
I like this feature, I could probably turn my graphics up a little as long as the players kept being hidden, I need to know which option it is within the graphics settings that enables/disables this.

Returning to GW2. Advice please!

and is Fire more affective than Air, Water or Earth or do I need a combination of a few?

Thanks I really appreciate the help

What spec etc should I be as Elemental? Or does it not matter much these days?

I remember back before I quit, Dagger/dagger was the best spec, is that still the case in PvE?

Currently I have a staff and I’ve put my traits into fire, I’m pretty much just staying in Fire Attunement killing stuff but I have no idea if that’s right or not for when I get into dungeons. Don’t want to be the guy slowing everyone else down.

Hello folks,

Like many other GW2 players out there, I played GW2 solidly when it was released, I leveled to 80 quickly and got a full map completion and then proceeded to quit due to the lack of endgame (at least I thought so)

I’m probably going to begin playing again, I crave the awesome graphics and unique playstyle however I am hesitating a little because I feel like I’m going to be overwhelmed with stuff I need to do (I say need because I usually want to have like.. everything..)

Basically what I want to know is what do I need to do? What shall I get on with? I’m not entirely sure If I should just hop onto my 80 Elementalist and try to continue where I left off, or if I should level up another character and remind myself of how to play. I’m sure a lot has changed.

Lets assume I play my Elementalist

What are they like in PvE at the moment?
What is PvE even like?
What can I now do in PvE?

What I really want is a list of stuff I can do to catch up with those of you that never stopped playing.

Thanks very much for any replies.
