Guild Wars 2

I had this problem on my laptop and found the solution was to disable nvidia shadowplay.

If you’re running an nvidia card, try turning off all of the fancy features.

I really like option 2.

I really don’t think you should be catering to people who care about ‘server identity’ when their guild is what is important.

IF I were to change anything else – I really like EotM-style linking. I know you can’t do that for WvW because the queues would be massive, but it’s something to think about for the future.

GW3 will be out before I get the AP for the full Radiant set. I’ve been playing since the beta and I only have ~13k AP.

1. You can already buy ascended items with Badges of Honor and Ectoplasm

2. I’ve gotten more ascended drops in WvW than in PvE, including FotM, and I have Ad Infinitum.

Again? It was never fixed.

I had to start blocking people. I give one reminder “Team chat is not for general conversations.” If they continue or bark at me, I block them.

That’s the sad reality of it that people don’t realize. Team chat is for TEAMWORK. If it’s not used properly, people will just turn off teamchat or block the ones filling it with garbage.

Don’t be that person. Don’t get blocked.

I don’t think breaking WvW compositions is a good idea..

I’ll add to this.

In the Hero Panel they look fine, but in-game the eyes are barely noticeable, and only when zoomed in. At the character selection screen, they don’t show at all unlike the other head pieces.

consider using -maploadinfo and providing information instead of getting mad

or you could open them and refine into ingots

either way this isn’t a bug

Run a tracert command. Sounds like you have a packet loss problem, which is something you would need to take up with your ISP. And btw, 300 ping is not good, and lag like you’re describing is something I would expect.

necro is fun and does good condi damage, but my vote for the best is condi berserker. so much surivability and burn damage is juat too good to pass up. And dont forget the huge bleed and immobilize longbow 5 does.

Condi Berserker for everything, Longbow and Sword/Torch. You can run from fights, solo camps, do great damage in zerg fights, and destroy those kittenty roamers who think they’re going to another easy kill.

Anything is good in WvW for 1v1 because 99% of players there aren’t specced for 1v1. Roamers and gankers get easy kills 24/7 because they have the spec and gear advantage.

Use stealth if you want extra easy kills.

Or just go to PvP and leave WvW for players who want to actually cap objectives and play as a team.

apharma.3741:

Is this in a group fight, you solo running from a group or in a zerg vs zerg where the commander was being moa’d constantly?

Zerg fights. Like 30+v30+. Certain guilds just spam it every chance they get on enemy commanders when a fight starts.

I DISAGREE and Im going to make you read this post.

A point-blank catapult would still damage a wall because physics actual exist and it’s silly to think it shouldn’t.

Catapults are not a problem in WvW.

It can break the game for high-rank players that get targeted by enemy groups. If you’re turned into a moa 3-4 times in every fight then what is the point of playing in WvW?

This needs serious consideration for removal in WvW.

I know they’re cheaper now than they used to be, but the price on these is blowing up again. A week ago they were 3g, now they’re 10g.

So 18 lilies for a set of exotic armor is 180g without factoring in the costs of other mats.

If you add in trinkets and weapons, you’d be over 500g.

Any chance the drop rate can be increased? They’re just too rare.

All of a sudden? DB has been creeping back up for a long, long time.

And you cant use the IoJ excuse, the pairings are based on population. ANet can lock transfers as soon as they need to. DB STILL wasn’t full until just 2 or 3 days ago. DB could be unlinked soon because of this.

And TC is still far overpopulated, despite losing.

The difference in activity between T1 and T2 is dramatic.

FA and Mag and getting pushed hard. Hardly a fun matchup for them.

Dolyaks in WvW and Guild Mission Bounty NPCs are teleporting all over the place. Borderline unkillable. The model is in one place (and bouncing around, running through terrain like walls and mountains) while the hitbox is 5000+ units away.

Can’t believe there are no other posts about this. Noticed it yesterday before reset with the Guild Bounty, and then in WvW immediately after.

edit: take back what I said. easily fixable with minimal investment.

1. extract what you have from trinkets
2. sell off the versatiles (you dont need these, and old versatile slots are now normal infusion slots))
3. count the open number of infusion slots you now have available
4. talk to the 5959 robot and break down the highest +’s you have until you reach the number of open infusion slots (11s to 2x 10s, etc)
5. reapply them back to your trinkets

It’s like people want WvW to be all about siege.

Do you know what happens when you lose your Keep and they start building cannons all over it? You are never, EVER going to get it back. Cannons are the most offensive siege in the game.

(searched back 10 pages, couldn’t find the old GM rewards thread)

Three of the missions I’ve done in the past week have not given me rewards. I recorded the puzzle last night. This is the first puzzle I have done in months, so it’s not like I got rewards for it already. I get credit for maybe ~50% of the PvE GMs I do, and they’re not duplicates.

Stealth is a crutch. Unfortunately the bad players that use it don’t have anywhere else they can go for so many easy kills, since most people in WvW aren’t specced for 1v1.

If there were runes that revealed enemies within 600 or 900 range, I would use them. I would build specifically around them so I could spend all day punishing the kittenters.

Character speed should also scale with body size. If you want realism, then an obese character is going to be limited to combat speed without swiftness.

Blade Of Gandara.6738:

the problem is … ANET CHANGED THE PAIRINGS FOR EVERY SINGLE NA SERVERS EXCEPT OUR SERVER !!! WE ARE SOOO SPECIAL !!!!!!!

That just means the population you have is appropriate and doesn’t need readjusting.

Mass DC of people in WvW, but not all according to those in Teamspeak. Maybe 20% of our squad stayed in, everyone else got booted and black screened, then had to wait 1-2 minutes before we could even log back in.

LazyDad.2037:

the pairings are horrible. For everyone. There is not fun when there is not balance and making this move was idiotic.

No matter where you go, just one sided now.

Fine in T2. FA, Mag, and DB all putting up good fights against each other.

Anet saved WvW.

Anet has spoken about this before, but the SMC fight between Mag/FA/DB was a joke. You could run through 150 people and barely take any damage because no one could get any skill off.

And then AFTER the fight was over, I had perma-quickness for 4 or 5 minutes even though I didnt have the boon.

Draconerus.9867:

on a PC that should be able to handle this game without issues.

there is no pc in existance that can play this game on maxed or high settings without frame drops.

Balthazzarr.1349:

One of the things I’ve noticed is that you can typically see people that are on the server you are on but not the other server. That is, if you are on FA for example and looking to see where some players are that happen to be on BP, sometimes you will see them, sometimes you won’t… even when you’re partied/squaded up with them you don’t always see all members the same way. Some are a big white dot and some are just the plain regular dots. I can be in a party and the party members on my server I can see everywhere… the ones that are not on my server but are on the host/slave server show up as normal dots and I have to look for. Very frustrating to say the least.

Sorry but this is yet another instance of where the ‘linked’ server is getting the short end of the stick

Your assumption is incorrect and you’re jumping to conclusions. My guildies cant see other people from our own server.

Lots of people in TeamSpeak reporting this tonight. I dont have the issue. My character model limit is set to High if that helps.

Your CPU is NOT a bottleneck here. The game simply isn’t made for modern hardware. People will preach the single-thread argument, but my 6700k never maxes any thread, even in wvw fights with frames dropped into the 20s.

So no, upgrades will not increase your performance. Best option is to lower your settings.

insanemaniac.2456:

people still use dire?

trailblazer is strictly better.

time to complain about that instead.

only good in small fights and costs 10x more to craft. not worth it at all.

you mean… like this?

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Video-Death-by-walking/first#post5961524

GW2 is very CPU intensive, and will cause your computer to be slow if you’re playing on low-end hardware. As for input lag, I’ve experienced the same problem with GW2 on my HTPC, but I assumed it was because it’s not really a gaming rig. Uses Intel’s integrated 4600 graphics.

I voted yes because I wanted maps to be full again like a couple of years ago, and this addressed it.

Anyone who says this is a bandaid is just flat out wrong. Population was dropping well before HoT. People will ALWAYS stop playing a game after they’ve played it a while.

Also WvW is not for roamers. Go to OS or EotM where no one cares what you do.

Boon Duration is unbelievably valuable

Condi duration is nice, but youre better off investing in condi damage instead.

source: 95% boon duration guardian, and Dire berserker

I needed crystals from TD, and thought “oh god Im going to be there all day”

But I wasn’t. A few hours of being tagged up netted me almost 2k crystals, and 20 extra Chak Acids. I like this model much, much more.

Just wanted to say thanks among the sea of complaints from everyone else.

Post a screenshot of your settings. If theyre maxed out then that’s why.

PvE – Ranger (Maurader with Durability Runes, longbow & axe/warhorn)
WvW – Berserker (Dire with Forgeman Runes, longbow & sword/torch)

Hardik.9241:

If you are referring to the feature that allows us to choose stats of our choice at anytime by double clicking on a legendary item then we already do have that.
It’s working fine on Ad Infinitum. Not sure about the Ascension.

By swap stat’s I am referring to changing them after they have already been selected.

Just double click it while you have it equipped and you can change the stats.

You can’t balance it because BG is stacked harder than any other server.

Sure, you could add MORE servers to DB and TC, but then ALL of T1 is stacked and now T2-T4 have no chance of making it to T1.

But I’m pretty sure the scoring chances will address this

There is a cap of 15000 points you can claim from daily achievements. Maybe you hit that limit?

Inculpatus cedo.9234:

Azurite Orbs drop from Generosity’s Reward. Got one the other day; I was pleasantly surprised.

I’ve gotten a couple from it too, but they’re very rare, and not enough to drive prices down.

Will there ever be a return of getting Azurite Orbs? Right now they’re very expensive, and a set of Azurite trinkets costs about 270g total.

There are ascended Sentinel accessories, but they take quite a while to unlock (thanks for adding reward tracks to WvW though! Big help).

I’d love to see Sentinel Rings/Amulets added to FotM or just make Azurite Orbs obtainable again!

Conditions don’t need nerfing.

Ability to apply daze so frequently and stealth are what needs to be changed.

You mean Confusion? THAT IS A CONDITION……..

You do know what daze is right?

Yes but it usually comes with other condi’s like confusion and or torment and those DO more damage than daze.

Daze doesn’t do damage. It’s an interupt, and mesmers get access to WAY too many Dazes.

Conditions don’t need nerfing.

Ability to apply daze so frequently and stealth are what needs to be changed.

If you need to move across the map to get to your squad and you try to run solo to them, you’re dead unless you’re geared for a 1v1, and that’s assuming they’re not going to 3/4/5 v 1 you.

How do you deal with this kitten? I don’t want to change my build just to catch up with my group every time I come into WvW, and there’s not always people to run with to get to them. You can’t even be at the back of your squad anymore without a kittenter group trying to pick people off.
