Guild Wars 2

I’m in the same boat, I just don’t login in anymore due to the lag, I really wish to play the game, but seeming I only PvP and I can’t do such…I’m just waiting for a fix, because its truly not enjoyable when your character is constantly dropping skills :/, I’ve tried a few things myself to fix the game, such as port-forwarding 80,443,6112,6600, forcing gw2 client to port 80, reformatting my PC, fresh installation of gw2, updating/uninstalling old drivers, contacting my ISP, and seeming that I’ve read countless posts about players experiencing such, I’m starting to believe its on there end :/

I presume you play shadow-arts…………….

To OP,
Backstab actually does have a cooldown, if you include reveal timer which is set to 4seconds in PvP, and 3 seconds if in WvW, but you’ve also got to include the amount of time that is needed to getting into stealth for the backstab, which could take up to another 1+ seconds so……

Description: Skill Delay, Rubberbanding, Skills not working

we had good times

I’m in the same boat, it seems when it hits telia.net services, packets drop by 50% or more, and has made this game unplayable in PvP/WvW for about a month

Hay Guys,

As the title says, Since the “Living Story Season 2” patch I’ve being experience major Lag(Skill Delay, Rubber-banding, Chat Lag)…and I’ve being searching through these forums for any solutions, but I’ve yet to see any Dev Response to such recent events.

My Current Spec’s:
- Processor: Intel® Core™ i7-4820K CPU @ 3.70GHz (8 CPUs), ~3.7GHz
- Memory: 16384MB RAM
- GPU: AMD Radeon HD 7800

Things I’ve tried:
- Forcing my Client to Port: 80, suggested by Anet Dev a year ago via this link: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/tech/10-5-11-2130-101-closed-connections/first#post77719
- Lowering all performance aspects to low, or off.
- Portforwarding: 80/443/6112/6600 TCP
- Contacting My ISP.
- Resetting Modem/Updating Firmware.
- Formatting PC
- Reinstalling Gw2
- Running Tracert/Ping (to get average speeds, posted below(hided IP for safety):

Trace complete.

from what I can see, I’m losing a massive amount of packets reaching Telia.net/Ncsoft Servers…and I lack the further troubleshooting knowledge to know what to do next, and could use some help assist to fix this.

Hay, I’m from W.A. Australia and I’ve being experiencing unplayable PvP/PvE skill delay for the last week….and it comes to some comfort that I’m not the only one lagging.
