Guild Wars 2

I like the thief with p/d d/d condition build. Madnek has posted around 40 videos of solo kills on different champions with this build. I am not very good and this build worked for me on the few champs that I tried.

Here’s his most recent example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMWsabpwcz4

There’s a link to his build in the description of the vid.

How would I figure out what custom resolution would give me close to a 90º FoV? My monitor has a native resolution of 1600×900. I don’t suffer from nausea or headaches, but it does bother me. It’s annoying to go from playing a game on my PS3 to playing GW2 on my PC. The difference is noticeable.

According to Jon Peters, the FOV in GW2 for a 16:9 widescreen is 75.

Using that, and this calculator: http://www.emsai.net/projects/widescreen/fovcalc/

An aspect ratio of 21:9 will get you to about 91 degree FOV.

I personally use a custom resolution of 1920×810, which is ~ a 21:9 ratio. Also, several companies are about to release new ultra-wide monitors with the same aspect ratio (I’ve mentioned this previously). Their resolutions should be 2560×1080. If you wanted to keep your same width (for example, if your video card would have trouble increasing it to 2100×900), I think you’d want to be somewhere around 1600×680. You might need to play around with the height a bit to get it just right.

Thanks, this is much better.

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but please consider making all of the dialogue in this quest something that you can skip — especially the opening conversation you have to wait for Treahearn to finish before initiating a cut scene dialogue with him.

I haven’t run into the same problem as the few posts I read here. My game has just crashed during this quest five times in a row. Perhaps my computer was just saving me from having to deal with the bug this thread is addressing. Either way, I’ve wasted enough time listening to that kitten conversation over and over.

Well, I dusted off my Ti-86 to find it’s batteries had died. I’m just going to wing it. Thanks anyway.
