In Verdant Brink, my FPS is 6. When I map travel any other part of the world, it jumps up to 22. None of my friends are having this problem, so I know it can’t be that there are too many people on the map. I have updated Windows and GW2 seems up-to-date as well. (when I open it to sign in, it doesn’t download any new content)
It makes it difficult to play and I so want to!! Suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
Buy better PC…. Heart of Thorns maps are much more vertical and require superior computers. When you have just 22 FPS it suggests you don’t even have good enough PC to play old maps smoothly.
You have to protect the camps, because they CAN be lost during 5 bosses time. And if they are lost, you don’t get the bar to progress that much and you also cannot run the supply. Bosses require 15-20 people for each one. Camps require 1-2 people per each camp, + some runners for protecting pact soldiers and running supplies.
…. I always miss the meta by few millimetres of the progress bar.
Yea, haha, this is actually pretty sweet idea…. much better than zergfest all the boars with max stacked XP boost
Everyone is always rushing to bosses at 20:00, like dogs who see food…. it is so horrible, you can see how people just turn off their brains…then i have to solo protect camp and watch other empty camps getting lost, and nobody just leave those freaking wyverns to protect them…And the best is when some another no-brainer yells in map chat that some champion spawned somewhere and those who protect camps run off to that champ…because one champion loot bag is more important than successful meta.
I still did not manage to win night cycle of VB… even though I participated more than 200% and tried to coordinate others….. people are just dumb and don’t listen, and afk, and zerk…. i will never get that freaking coat box :’(
yet just another comparison to GW1 and GW2…. group playing RPG that stopped having updates 4 years ago vs massive multiplayer RPG that just started…
You are trolling, right?
- You are angry that they changed things for the better
- You think old legendaries are obsolete just because there are some new skins for them
- You are playing a game in which the ultimate goal is to save Tyria from 6 elder dragons, yet you are surprised there was a second dragon after the first one
- You think not having masteries means you are a noob
- You are angry they added new specialisations which you can get by playing the game for a few hours, days at max.
- and you claim there is more…. wou, I think you should take a break.
Mordemoth fight is bugged for me (spoilers)

A well known bug. Wait for Tuesday’s patch
My girlfriend got 6 gold from one low level run with 2 dailes…I got crap xD it is really just based on RNG and these 1 and 5 gold trash items are very very rare.
What I found the most problematic about this change is the fact that people just leave the party without saying anything
Agree. The need of using third party program to remove it is pretty…you know
I would wait until Tuesday. This is a game breaking bug and I think they will roll in a fix in the Tuesday raid update.
Ill conceived: first go try it, then post on forum.
Misguided: if this meta is supposed to be like 3 headed wurm – beatable only in organised group – then it will share its fate and my attitude towards it
postponing it for months and years because I never find energy to look for some organised guild, trying to join them and trying to get onto already full map
u need ley-lined gliding in Auric bassin too =) but a mesmer with the mastery is enough
You do not. I explored everything with just lean gliding. You get to that hero point on the west end of the map by getting up into the Tengu village and from there you go on a nearby tree trunk and jump lean glide to the opposite hill rock. From there glide again down to the cave with ancient golem hero point.
Yes, it is very good. However, crafting 250 staffs which require around 7000 elder wood (plus, you need 11 000 elder wood logs for 53 spirit wood planks) is a bit stupid… I refuse to buy it through TP, so now I am going to park all my characters to Malchor’s Leap, guest german and spanish server, and farm the kitten out of those trees.
Dear Linsey, my bank is full of all the kinds of materials which I was saving up for years. You had a chance to give them a purpose…now they will stay there collecting dust… farming 18 000 elder wood logs + other thousands of lower tier logs is not fun at all.
I could have built a wooden castle from such amount of wood planks… not one stick with few glowy crystals.
People are the ones who decide how expensive they are…. If there are crazy individuals willing to pay more than 1000 gold just to not wear shoes while perserving stats, well, enjoy…lol…
Guys, don’t lose hope. I strongly believe Arenanet won’t ignore empty maps.. It is 25% of the new open world pve they made, they want to, and will keep it healthy.
How do you farm machetes? Even if I can find 30 pods per DS, I only get 12 machetes per DS.
You can also buy them from the combined currencies of the first three maps.
I can already see how it will look… my completely fine and beloved soldier guardian/dragonhunter will be totally useless, because i will have to craft berseker with sigil of force, air, and runes of scholar….not gonna happen.
this is a bug, happens to me too…. my fix for it: withdraw one more, if it does not appear in your inventory, reload game…. everytime I reload game, i get teleported away from guild bank and those items appear in my inventory….very weird and devs should fix this
When I learnt they totally nerfed ascended boxes from Fractals I felt very cheated… all the people who farmed up fractals before HoT now own 3+ full ascended sets without crafting, and me, who is playing just from time to time can’t even get one set for me… I got 2 boxes from fractals before HoT, now there is no reason to expect looting this anymore….so as OP put it> I have to grind grind grind…. thanks.
Thank you for your input. You are 100% right. Hopefully, they will do something about it.
I knew I had to think outside of the box!
I don’t know if I find it really cool, or pretty stupid that the whole jumping puzzle should be skipped like this.
Congratulations!!!!!
And what is this problem with not-CC-ing? I actually never managed to get into organised event so I don’t know how it works.
So there is some mega server issue?
I tried to get to some organised map and it seems like there is hardly any… In the end I managed to join one and it was just pseudo organised and failed in 5 minutes… I mean, I don’t mind hard content, I don’t mind if the whole map has to participate…but somehow this map got a bad reputation so there is hardly anyone who is still willing to try progressing it.
not yet… i just finished Verdant Brink, knowing I will get the reward retroactively
Okay so we received an official response that it is being worked on and all the missing rewards (Magus Falls and Dry Top/Southsun/Silverwastes) will be given retro-actively.
What I don’t understand, is why couldn’t anybody from arenanet write this on the OFFICIAL forum of this game….. Why is reddit so special to them?
Yeah I was laughing about how horribly easy fractals are….this defiance bar shouldn’t been applied on those bosses. Gold rewards are almost non-existant and if you want to run more than one fractals at once, expect at least 1 person to leave after the first one….actually last time I was playing dredge and people were entering and leaving without saying a single word….very rude
Meh
/15 characters
No…. I just want all the bugs to be fixed and some not very- well working stuff revisited
Hh, I’m kind of glad for all this rant…I started one myself. Hope they will fix it as soon as possible.

Removal, nerf, and rollback of all the boosts associated with guild upgrades was really dumb decision…. I thought these things will be grand-fathered, but apparently they got scrapped….they are not even worth to get for all that material costs
Ok, i give up. Yeah let’s just hope they will fix those many bugs… The worst thing is, next week they will add raids and legendary armor, what will add even more bugs

Yes, exactly something like that…. I think Revenant shouldn’t be a problem. After all, Mists is set outside of time. But yeah, Glint 2 sounds more reasonable.
They are both fun. Herald will get plenty of balance updates as it is a completely new profession, so it is hard to say. Guardian is definitely easier to master though….
For me, it is a nerf…I was able to get 6 tokens a week and now I get 4 if I am lucky and don’t get bugged. Yes, after several months when you level up your guild to max, the rewards will be buffed…..yay
I am having headaches and eye strain from GW2 since lauch….the worst are fps drops…somehow if the game isn’t 100% smooth, i start getting eye strain, then headache….the same is happening with Elite Dangerous, though i think it is because every time you travel between star systems, gigantic sphere of fire pops up on your screen xD

I sort of thought Glint will be reborn from that egg…or that her child dragon will be our powerful ally in fighting other dragons.
Which is still weird…yes I did choose to defend the village. But when i was playing this mission with my girlfriend and she chose to attack mordrem, i don’t recall her using this instrument or looking for some hunters. Also, her story continued with impressing that guy by gliding…which i remember for sure as i was helping her to avoid that bug which blocked you from talking with him.
Edit: okay sorry, i mistaken it with a different mission.

It was specifically said that we are walking on the mordremoth’s back. He is the jungle, he is everywhere. You cannot fight him in real world, thus we had to go to dream and kill his mind.
Btw, Teratus thank you for excelent points. I did not think about the egg in that way…. It souds amazing and it gives some answers for what will happen when we slay all the bad dragons.
I cannot complete my dragonhunter collection because of this
What are you talking about? I finished the story and never got this warbler thingy. What does it do and when was I supposed to get it?
(edited by Mortifer.2946)
We are not doing WvW….we just ignore it. WvW was alway supposed to be just a side game to PvE anyway.
I’m not the only one. Look at all the other posts, or try to go and play some missions and you will see how terribly wrong they are.
The reason is simple, not only you nerfed the token reward, you also totally screwed up all the missions. When you die in puzzle you get teleported outside of the curent room into locked one so you are stuck. Rush is still bugged too. And PVE guild does not care about your WvW missions or PVP mission a bit.
Raids will come in 1 week. Expect blogpost on Tuesday. Legendaries will come along with them. Relax….take it eeeeeaaaasy
If you can’t farm tier 2,3,4,5 wood (example from Bifrost collection, probably the most expensive one), the I would like to see how you farm T6, lodestones, gold, and all the other requirements for full legendary.
I say, material costs of precursor collections are reasonable. Just chill and do it slowly…one ascended mat per day + PvP and wvw dailies for those new tokens.
