Also, what do you mean by “Removing Underwater PVP”? Are you talking about sPVP?

Most likely. The Feature Pack saw the removal of the game’s only PvP map with underwater combat, Raid on the Capricorn, and a new land-only map added in its place.

Oh OK, thanks for the clarification. =)
So it’s more like “Removing [the only sPVP map with] Underwater PVP”. =P

I am pretty sure PvP players can get the Daily strictly in PvP, as some of the PvE activities now count in PvP. I could be mistaken, as I don’t really PvP much.

Nope. This is not possible. Even if you play sPVP and WvW you will still only get 4/5.

We’re talking about Daily Achievements right? Cause I do nothing except WvW and I always get them.

I agree with most of what you said, except for a point or two.

Guarzog Zogger.5763:

This is not normal. The unplayable lag is back and I did nothing, only restart my pc. I have no clue of whats happening.

Have you tried BazeDragon.3927 suggestion?
Also, how much RAM does your PC have?
Do you have any downloads (streaming, torrents, …) running in the background or in other PC’s while playing?
Does your game get laggy immediately after you start playing or does it take a while to get laggy?
Have you tried disabling V-Sync?

I approve this idea.

Big Tower.5423:

Give an unique token each time you complete an even which you can turn into an laurel/1 gold/10 k glory/10 k wxp perhaps 50 tokens is a good number to turn it into this amount?

That is a good idea. At least it would drive people to event farming…which isn’t bad I guess.

@Mofogie I think I remember reading somewhere that GW2 doesn’t really like SSD disks, but I don’t remember for sure so I may be wrong and what I said may just be stupid.
My specs seem to be similar/lower to yours though, and I run the game in medium/high with about 40 FPS average. I did get a huge FPS decrease with the latest patch though.
Nevertheless, GW2 has a huge amount of FPS issues.

My specs:
- i7-2630QM (Quad-Core)
- 8GB RAM
- ATI Radeon HD 6770M
- HDD 750 GB, 5400 RPM

A lot of people having the same problem. I’m having 10-20 sec lag spikes.
It’s unplayable.

Getting to boiling point now… Considering all im trying to do at the moment is complete jumping puzzles and explorers achievements that require timing of dodges skills and general combat ability having 2-20 second lag on abilities and movement (sometimes not even registering my movement server-side, ie showing me i’ve moved but getting attacked by mobs way back despite running away; like GW1 used to when you sometimes got “blocked” by mobs).

Combine this with a multitude of disconnections in-between all this and you have for one very fed up player.

At first i was under the impression that it was my own internet issue and networking problems but with those cleared and assured to be trivial the only other cause was yours. After consulting some guildies who have also been experiencing the same issues, and reading the forums with similar threads i come to add to your headache. Please fix this promptly as in not just next patch not just when you plan too…

…I keep seeing “fed up with this, logging off for the day” mesages on guild chat and i for one am almost there myself. This is a hot-fix patch kinda jobby, and i can already hope and assume your finest men are already on it.

Me and my brother are also experiencing this.
We also had a considerable FPS drop…and we have different specs.

@tanztante to me this seems like a GW2 problem. I have exactly the same issue and I haven’t changed anything on my PC. Before the latest build I had around 40 fps in most areas. In WvW I would drop to 20 fps. Now I get 20-30 fps average and I drop to 3-5 fps in WvW. It gets absolutely unplayable.
All other games are running fine.

I’m on a HP laptop with a i7-2630QM and an AMD Radeon HD 6770M.

Same here. Huge FPS drop since last build.
All other games seem to run just fine.

I have noticed this too. Sometimes I want to enjoy the scenery but I can’t quite do it because the camera is weird.

Understood, thank you very much. =)

Hmm, ok thanks for the info. But can they do that from anywhere? Is it like some kind of ritual, where they pray to Zeus and players get hit around the globe? It’s supposed to strike everyone also right? Because I asked on the chat and no one had any idea what I was talking about.

Hi,

Ok, this has been happening a lot to me lately. Usually when I’m alone and walking around (most common when I’m inside a keep or something), I start getting hit by lightning strikes. I have no idea where they come from because most of the times I’m completely alone or even safe inside a base. I get hit and get like a dazed effect and then I immediately recover my life which means that I probably don’t even get in combat. I checked the combat log and this is what it says..

I’m a thief by the way.
Anyone knows what is happening?

Thanks

Thanks all, this was the feedback I needed.
I guess I’ll mainly keep using Thieves Guild…and maybe try out the Dagger Storm plus Signet of Malice combo.

Hi,

Which elite skill do you use the most? I’m having a little trouble deciding which one I should stick to.
Usually I use Thieves Guild, but Dagger Storm seems pretty awesome. The thing with Thieves Guild is that you can change the attention/aggro of your foes, as with Dagger Storm people keep focusing on you, which sometimes results in loosing a lot of health while executing it.
If you’re a Human Thief you also have Hounds of Balthazar, but is it better than Thieves Guild? It has a much longer cool-down, so I never use it.

Take care.
