Guild Wars 2

Apocalypse Knight Legacy.6718:

This worked for me:

Find your hosts file here: C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts

Copy/paste the hosts file to your desktop.

Rename the file so it becomes “hosts.txt”

Now open the file with notepad. (you need to run as admin if you have that option)

Add this line at the bottom:

174.35.56.164 assetcdn.101.arenanetworks.com

Save the file.

Now rename the file again to delete the .txt so it has no file extension anymore and is just “hosts” again.

Now go replace your old hosts file with this new edited one on your desktop.

If you have the GW2 launcher already open, restart it.

This was someone else’s fix, but it worked for me when the Google DNS didn’t work right away.

This did it for me! Thank you!

A work-around suggestion from our Server Team:
Set your DNS provider to Google (https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using) as that fixes this problem and will continue working into the future.

I am on FiOS and am having this problem. I was on Google’s DNS already. The instructions given do not help.

Question 1: Asura biology mystifies me, and I would love clarification. Are they mammals, or something else? And do they grow hair naturally, or are most of them just wearing wigs?

Question 2: It’s known that humans are not native to Tyria, having arrived with their gods some 200 years before the whole Abaddon mess. I was wondering, is this not native to Tyria the continent, or not native to Tyria the planet?
