Guild Wars 2

GTX 1070
Corrupted Shadows
Shadows having a blocky or corrupted looking appearance.

-The Amnoon Oasis – Building with Trading Post and Bank, and Casino with Choya’s fighting
-Ascalonian Catacombs Dungeon – The entire dungeon is pretty bad especially at the end of Path 3 with the Giant Skelk.
-Sorrows Embrace Dungeon
-Chantry of Secrets – Giant globe, floor shadows
-Underground Facility Fractal

I really wish they would fix this It’s been a year since I’ve posted/submitted tickets. The patch they put out fixed only very few of the corrupted shadows. There’s so many in the game it’s ridiculous..

It’s doing the checkered shadows again in the beta preview in the area of the bank with the water fountain. If shadows are on and you turn on reflections on all it disappears. If you turn off reflections it reappears and won’t go away until shadows are completely off.

Corrupted shadows still persist after the patch.
On the ice elemental there’s a weird split with the lighting on his body and the other is in Sorrows Embrace dungeon.

GTX 1070

1. Shadows having a blocky or corrupted looking appearance.
2. Nvidia Geforce GTX 1070
3. Numerous caves, Dungeons such as COF, TA, SE and others. Order of Whispers hideout, at Gorseval etc etc.

I’ve talked to Anet about the checkered shadow bug and they said they’d get back to me but it’s been 3 months. Here’s a video of what they look like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCbnxWFEIx4

I’ve tested this on 4 GTX 1070’s

Happens to me on 3 different gtx 1070’s.

I’m also having this issue and it is STILL an issue. I’ve replicated it on 3 1070’s. Gigabyte 1070 G1, EVGA 1070 SC, and the ASUS STRIX 1070 O8G. Setting shadows to low or off stops this issue but it shouldn’t have to be that way. I hope someone looks into this.

1UP! One of the best events in any mmo I have ever played.

My daily challenges are not completing and I have 100% on all 5 things that I needed to do. I had done a 6th one to see if it would work but still no reward.
