Oglaf.1074 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 My laptop can clear my usual content such as raids with no problems, but big zerg-on-zerg fights makes it struggle a bit.What are some high impact options one could turn off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuka Cola.8520 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 shadows (set to medium, there's barely any gain past medium), number of peeps on screen (set it to lowest). That's mostly it. Game is running on an engine from the 18th century and is very poorly optimized so poor fps in wvw (in a zerg or near one) is all you can expect in gw2.

Olli.9028 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 gw2 in wvw is kust cpu limited so turn down the settings that are cpu related, most importantchar limit and quality + effect lodmire in depth here https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/3hnyt3/guild_wars_2_performance_guide_mk_ii/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RisingDaewn.8703 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I get 60-30 FPS, no matter what I change in large scale, but lowering character limit and model quality made things a tad smoother, like a 3-5 fps difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArchonWing.9480 Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Character model limit (probably lowest if your comp struggles), shadows, reflections, and post processing can be turned down. I'd try to get character model quality a bit higher if possible so you can actually tell stuff apart. Also turn on effect lod to reduce strain/prevent from going blind.The rest of the settings probably won't really be much of an impact and in a lot of cases beyond complete potatoes, it will just make it uglier for no appreciable gain. You're probably going to see more impact just by closing other programs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justine.6351 Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 I run everything max except character model limit which is set to lowest. I Generally avoid 50v50 wvw gameplay though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonecap.4105 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Honestly wish graphics in WvW were saved separately (like raid graphics in WoW). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
