Computer crashing whilst playing GW2

Settings your preferred power profile to maximum performance just keeps the GPU at P0 state (akittens highest clock speeds). Doesn’t seem like that would solve any crashes though.

Edit: To the OP, what’s your PSU brand and model?

What’s written in the error box when the game crashes or does it just crash without warning? Normally the cause is recorded within the crash report.

Successful Guild Challenge but no merit given

Yeh something happened with my guild as well. Bounty and trek went fine and awarded merits and commendations. Rush, challenge and puzzle still awarded commendations for participants but no merits were given to the guild for those 3 missions and it just counted down until the 5 hours were expired. This needs a fix asap.

What should I be looking for in a headset?

Also depends whether you’re going to use it exclusively for gaming or using it for music/movies as well.

Edit: I’m more biased towards a headset with good stereo sound over gimmicks such as surround. That being said, surround can be emulated by your a sound card with dolby headphone if you wish.

Just get over it… at least lupicus was untouched.

Btw, Simin’s heal is about 1/4 of what it used to be, if you wanted to know.

There is indeed a new waypoint that doesn’t appear on the minimap.

Hint: It’s around the south west portion of the map. The waypoint is the starting point for one of the guild puzzle mission.

Forcing your own Anti Aliasing(AA) in game

I’ve tried extensive tests forcing SGSSAA/SSAA through the inspector a while back. All I can say that even though it provide excellent anti aliasing, my two GTX 680s took a huge performance drop and it’s just not worth it (unless you happen to have quad SLI or something crazy).

SMAA does give decent anti aliasing for the near zero performance drop.

I just swing my weapon wildly when a thief uses stealth. Generally scares them away. You can’t see them but they may not attack you. If you do hit them by accident, then they’ll be revealed upon taking damage.

I completed Arah Path 4 for the first time yesterday (failed at Simin 5 time previously).

We wasted about 45 minutes fighting that 50% stealth issue you described. Our workaround was to use the 4+1 spark technique to be able to get her health down as much as possible before we need to run all 5 sparks again.

After Simin has stealthed for the first time and she has regenerated to over 70% health again, I believe that’s what is causing the 50% repeated stealth issue. Once you have Simin below 50% consistently then it’s just a matter you getting her down faster than she can regenerate.

Also our sparks runs weren’t perfect; we did muck up a few times. But the more DPS you have, the bigger leeway you have for messing up the sparks.

Na it was Christmas Eve’s Arah Path 4 run haha. And you can probably guess that Simin was involved xD

I’ve tried doing that but I can’t actually move my Twilight outside of my bank to use any transmutation stones on it. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Ok I have a big problem regarding my legendary weapon Twilight which I forged just over a month ago.

In a drunken rage, I deleted the character which my Twilight was soulbound to. Fortunately my Twilight was in my bank at the time.

A few days later, I thought that if I recreated the same character using the same name, race and profession etc. I would somehow magically have the Twilight soulbound on that new character instead. Sadly I was wrong.

So the issue is my Twilight is in my bank, but it is soulbound to a character that doesn’t exist anymore, so it’s basically useless and taking up bank space now.

My question is, is there anything I can do to have my blood, sweat and tears pay off by having my Twilight able to see the light of day again?

I’ve already submitted a ticket to ArenaNet about it and it was a no-go =(
