Guild Wars 2

Some details on a Nvidia driver issue:

Have you tried rolling back the driver? The latest version was messing up for me and rolling back solved a bunch of problems.

I get a massive FPS drop as soon as I open the Hero Panel or the PvP Panel. I have to tab out, change Fullscreen/Windowed Fullscreen a bit, and then it’ll go back to normal. But then as soon as I open the hero panel again it drops back down to 6-15 FPS

Turns out the latest NVidia driver is a bit buggy. Rolled back and it’s fine now.

I’m getting this when I view the Hero Panel / PvP panel. For some reason the game is running fine, but as soon as I open one of those panels my game goes down to 6-15 FPS for quite a long time. Closing the panel doesn’t fix it.

Congratz! This wing looks so good. Still fighting the Sloth in my case tho :P

It only gets better The sloth fight can get annoying if you don’t get a kill, but as soon as you complete it, the whole wing becomes even more fun, down to the last second killing Matthias. The middle encounter, whilst easy without the environmental effects, is still a fun fight and a nice change. The final boss is so fun, I don’t think I got annoyed at wiping at all, just because you can see your progression as you go into each phase.

Firebird Gomer.9563:

I don’t know maybe go have a look at other MMO’s that have raids that don’t have timers and yet have more challenge and mechanics that make it more fun.

Firebird Gomer.9563:

I’m not interested in other MMO’s so ppffffftttt. I’ll be here long after your bored cause your timers don’t do it for you anymore.

Troll is real in this one.

Does anyone know which volume option the poison notification sound comes under?

Would be helpful as sometimes the sound is the best indicator of when you get poisoned, but currently that can be covered up by teamspeak/combat sounds, so could max out that volume option.

SlyDevil.3952:

You sound like some college student with too much time on your hands and a fancy computer!!!!

Just a software engineer bored with client work

Would love to work with the log API, if it were to go ahead, I’d love to build a personalised combat log site where you could visualise your DPS over time (the whole of a Sabetha fight for example), and see where it drops off, and then make an entry for each time you fight Sabetha and see the improvement, or when you change build.

@insanemaniac.2456 you should be able to delete any new ones you make now

Haha, I’ll look into that now

Okay, I’ve just added a very basic LFR tool to the site, tell me what you think and how I could improve on it.

EDIT: Okay first post was a lovely bit of spam (it was quite funny, but I won’t be reposting it), I will however have to think about adding a report option.

Hmm, I could have a look at adding a LFR section to it. What kind of things would you like to see in such a tool? Username, Title, Description, current boss (or full clear), classes to look for?

Hey everyone,

Over the past day I’ve been coming up with an idea to provide a set of guides and videos for Raids. Focussing mainly on the aspect of cool videos that either shows something unique/fun or up to the top record times, and challenges guilds are setting each other.

So far I’ve not really added many videos, but instead I’m using this post to get peoples reactions and ideas to what kind of things they would like to see on there.

http://gw2raid.com

Currently it’s very bare as I’ve only spent an hour or so on it so far compiling ideas.

The long term focus would be to have:

1. Top speed clear records
2. Interesting runs (all profession runs, no updraft, etc etc etc.) for all raids
3. Guides (both text and video based)
4. Links to builds and team comps

Feirlista Xv.1425:

If it was the severs then it would effect everyone, I just logged in no issues ping was at around 70 that’s a little high for me I’m more at 40ish but no problem logging loading or zoning.

It’s effecting a kitten lot of people, at least over here in the EU.

Cannot login at the moment, I got kicked like half an hour ago, and just having a really slow login from the launcher, and then getting connection alerts when loading into LA. Sometimes it gets to 100%, I can hear people in the background, but the loading screen just stays there. After some time friends say I just go offline.

Unyielding Anguish: Completely ignores defiance stacks.

Currently the displacement skill with Mallyx does not take into account defiance on anything. You can use the skill on anything with defiance stacks and it will not touch them despite moving the boss.

For example, Mossman, would constantly get pushed out of the field over and over again.

Also regarding Fractals, 1-10 are easily soloable if you seriously have no one to join (except for certain parts of it like the dredge fractal). Otherwise it might be pretty good to start your own LFG, or wait for the level 1-10 fractal dailies.

That’s intended behaviour and not a bug. Story happens pre-lions arch destruction and rebuilding.

Iason Evan.3806:

I know I am in the minority, but dungeons and fractals were my fave part of this game.

They are the fav part out of 90% of my friends in the game, unfortunately a lot of them left due to ANet abandoning them. Quite a few who are still playing are waiting to hear about the “Challenging Content” announcements before they finally decide to leave.

Design I think, it prevents people from keep running over the curtain to stack up swiftness. IMO it should always give you swiftness once, but they’ve never changed the skill for that to happen.

Since this afternoon there have been quite a few big issues in LA (amongst others), probably server related. The issues weren’t only effecting me, a bunch of other people were reporting similar things:

- All NPCs and Players disappear (apart from party members)
- Moving instantly kills you
- No falling damage
- Boons cannot be applied to you
- Skills cannot be activated (but Guardian virtues can)
- People getting teleported inside a rock near the Bloodtide Coast portal
- Land weapons equipped whilst underwater
- People unable to revive bugged players

Here’s a screenshot of a friend who got randomly teleported past the bloodtide coast portal:
http://i.imgur.com/chc8k2t.jpg?1

It doesn’t just happen in LA, but across many maps.

Whilst this may be intended, it seems absolutely absurd. Running a dungeon tour this afternoon made it clear that it took everyone a long time to realise that someone was actually downed. Rather than having it darker green, can we just have it go back to red??

I think it should at the VERY LEAST be seperated from Ranked (I’d prefer seperated from Unranked too). Maybe it doesn’t matter for a lot of random people who arent bothered about their team comp, or how they do, or if you should change your build. But for a team who are partied up to win? They will definitely want some time to change skills, change the build, switch profession JUST because Stronghold appeared.

Should spamming 2 interupt itself? I’ve never ever known Hundred Blades to Interrupt Hundred Blades before.

Yes, I read that it was the same queue and immediately cursed out loud. I don’t want to do conquest, but would really enjoy Stronghold. Unfortunately if I can’t queue for it specifically I’ll have to end up passing. VERY disappointing as it really puts a huge damper on my excitement for HoT

why dont you just join a custom game?

Maybe because custom games arent balanced at all? With that i mean 5v5 from the beginning to the end and no team switching.

disable team switching.
set starting players at 10.
its Custom arenas for a reason.
is it that you want tohe convinience of joining a game using only 1 button or whaty?
the Update to pvp was made so we can choose the map we wants, just CHOOSE stronghold.

Well there is only one problem with that. The custom arenas from Anet dont have that options and if you make a custom arena yourself you would first need one, which doesnt come for free.

And dont forget custom arenas have no matchmaking. And some may want to play with roughly even matched players…

the custom arenas doesn have that option , you can filter it
and you can always Join a arena ,dont need to create one .
the matchmaking the only reasonable argument thus far, and even then, it still doesn’t warrant a separate queue when we have map voting in place.

Actually you argument doesnt even work with what i said because you can leave custom arenas at any point without punishment. So even with the right settings it will not be balanced.

I also would argue that there is a big difference in choosing between different conquest maps and maps that have completly different mechanics. So i would consider your voting map argument rather weak.

So the Stronghold gets voted, and suddenly you need to change builds, change team comp etc. etc. That’s going to get super messy in the 1:30 at the start of the match with pugs.

^ Happens to pretty much everyone I know including myself.

For example, I could be running Arah and then suddenly the sound repeats the same sound (usually background sound), further sounds are no longer played, and then the FPS keeps on dropping until 3-10 FPS. I think it eventually crashes, but it needs a force quit to get out of the game.

So since a few days/weeks ago I’ve been having issues with the Warrior skill Hundred Blades, and the Guardian Skill Whirling Wrath:

During a fight I may start spamming the skill, and then suddenly it goes into a 3 second cooldown, doing no damage and the animation half plays out. I then have to wait 3 seconds before using the skill and actually doing damage.

It feels like it’s cancelling itself completely randomly. I think it’s happened on the Guardian skill Symbol of Wrath at some point too.

On my 12th try now. Every time I kite the bee’s to it, get it to full, get the buff, and then it disappears when the beam crossed it and I never get the achievement.

I think there needs to be a few little changes to make this work nicely:

1. Before 1:30 window is up: Hide enemy comp, allow switching professions
2. After the 1:30 window is up: Allow the enemy comp to be displayed
3. After the 1:30 window is up: Present a warning alert after clicking the change character dialog (“Warning: You will be removed from the match and it will count as a loss” Cancel/Ok). If the user continues to change, remove from the match and count as a loss as well as updating the user on the dishonor system as it currently stands.

Same happened twice to me, unable to proceed

We’ve now got ourselves a small website for you to check out, forum applications can be made on there.

Hey all!

So, Bullied for Lunch is a completely brand new EU guild aimed at running dungeons/fractals pretty fast, and in the future adding guild missions into our list of activities.

Who we are looking for

People who have good understanding of the current meta, who don’t mind running with slightly different builds if the team composition requires it. People who can do Fractals up to level 50.

What we do

Our main aim is to run through dungeons and fractals with speed and ease. We are by no means trying to be a top speedrunning dungeon guild to get the worlds best times.. we are simply here to have some fun whilst completing the dungeons quite fast. We are not an elite guild. But we are semi-hardcore.

We aren’t a fully 100% rep guild, but would like you to rep most of the time (just so when we form groups for dungeons/fractals, we know you can hear us). If you’ve got a WvW guild, or a guild that does things like Teq/Wurm, you can represent them fine

How to join

To join, send me a forum message or in-game message with the following:

- Why do you want to join?
- What professions can you bring to Fractals level 50?
- What build/gear setup is your main char?

Thanks

Inculpatus cedo.9234:

I don’t have those issues. Pumpkins and nodes reset once a day. Maps usually have enough people. If not, can just pop a tag and they will come.

You might consider a -repair of the client, in case of corrupted files.

Good luck.

Pumpkins seem to reset after a couple of hours or so unless I’m going crazy

sMihaly.1492:

I can’t log in to Crystal Desert, tho i guess it’s not a bug but the lack of release.

I assume the OP is talking about their home server.

Can’t play the game. Went into a tPvP match with some guildies, the map is bugged, and now none of us can do anything. Stuck in an infinite loop of loading game > loading pvp match > crash > loading game > loading pvp match > crash.

Not nice tbf.

Urgh, just happened to me now too. Just think, from a single PvP map bug (similar to elsewhere in the game), now 10 people can’t do ANYTHING for 30 mins. Just think of the other people who are trying to join matches and the same happens to them. Such a ballache.

Yey, same happened to me (as well as getting a whole Fractal instance removed because the 4th fractal map was bugged).

I’m now stuck in limbo, I can’t do ANYTHING because no matter which char I pic, it tries to force me into the broken PvP match.

He’s super easy with 4-5 people, less mobs spawn and you can spend more time on attacking the Lich rather than trying to avoid hitting the skeletons with tons of retaliation.

Happened again to me now as well.

But was it an exploit? Or was it just meant to be a normal repeatable instance? First time I’ve done Halloween, and the same for a lot of other people. Who knows?

Hello everyone, once again just a message to say that we are in another phase of recruiting for those that may be interested!

Same happened to me. Not happy.
