Forging Steel always crashes
GaijinGuy.8476 replied to GaijinGuy.8476's topic in Account & Technical Support
Setting graphics settings to all low solved the issue. I just hope I don't have to do this for all the story quests going forward/ -
As the title suggests, I cannot get through this story chapter as it constantly crashes. I got a DXGI device hung error the first few times so I disabled all overclocks and went back to DX9 but now it crashes with no errors, the gw2 window minimizes but I cannot interact with any other open programs. Only a system restart closes the game at this point. I've tried changing settings (windowed mode and all that) but my game always crashes soon after helping 2/4 warbands prepare (8 times now). I've been trying to do this quest for 2 hours now and am going to give up for today but any help would be welcomed. Fixed as per my reply

SEA server for Heaven's sake <3
GaijinGuy.8476 replied to Fantasy.2794's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I actually tried the free trial for 3 days and am now thinking about getting it permanently. Is was nice having 160 ping compared to 250+. What is weird though is a few years back I never really had such issues will input lag due to ping. What happened? -
Hide chest armor function
GaijinGuy.8476 replied to EthanLightheart.9168's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I say yes because what's the point of having tattoos in character creation when you can't have them showing.Edit: And don't just say "just take your armour off" because that removes stats. -
[POLL] What Type of Gear Do You Run in WvW?
GaijinGuy.8476 replied to TheGrimm.5624's topic in World vs. World
I'm too lazy to work towards legendary gear. Even though it is well within reach, I just can't be bothered. I don't really like any of the looks and it is easy enough to get ascended trinkets and/or exotic gear for new stats to change builds. -
I stopped playing last year, things were getting stale with out of control damage and boon stacking. I have recently been informed of the new balance patch which got me interested in coming back. Saw the changes to Warclaw and have reinstalled. It seems as though they are starting to listen to player requests.I am sure many would have liked the warclaw gone all together (never gonna happen with all those gem store skins), but I think they have managed to make somewhat of a compromise as it still give a big advantage just not as big as before.Can't wait to jump in and try out the new changes. Oh, and what can Anet do to get people to come back? Release alliances perhaps?

Would be nice if attacking a player (engaging in combat with a player) refreshed participation. Sucks when you wanna keep trying to kill someone who you just can’t beat but have to give up because I gotta go down a sentry or lose out on rewards.

Rampage should be nerfed in WvW also not only PvP
GaijinGuy.8476 replied to Arheundel.6451's topic in World vs. World
I can understand the issues in PvP as you have to stay in the circle and one team is only 5 players (the aoe cap) but I haven’t really seen it being used a lot in WvW and if it was I didn’t notice any difference it made. -
There are heaps of tracking skills like rapid fire and I am always annoyed when I eat them on my thief, but i only eat them because I didn’t interrupt, dodge or blind first.Learn to play :)

Potential Future Balance Changes - WvW
GaijinGuy.8476 replied to Cal Cohen.2358's topic in World vs. World
I’m no expert in any game mode but I do cruise the forums quite often. The changes mentioned in this post and the PvP post are all things I have see other players talk about as well. How the changes will effect things I cannot say (not experienced enough to comment) but it is promising to see that voices are being heard! -
Sometimes people are just so good with their build it doesn’t matter how well you play, you just can’t beat them. There are also good and bad match ups. Can’t win them all.Though I am still a little pessimistic after WvW being neglected for so long, ANet does seem to want to tackle the issue of balance and have actually started communicating.

Has freed up gear space and can change between builds with 2 hot key strokes. For most players having 3 build trmplates and 2 gear templates is probably enough but it would have been nice if we started with 3 gear templates as well considering there are 3 games modes.I never used arc, always did it manually, now my bags are empty and can be filled up with more junk.

It’s great, can switch between a roaming build and a Zerg build with just 2 hotkeys!Kinda sucks that there is only 2 free gear templates though

Which GW2 foe do you dislike most?

Am I the only one to love dagger offhand?
GaijinGuy.8476 replied to Arheundel.6451's topic in Ranger
You’re not alone my freind! <3 -
Stun locks suck. There is too much cc going around which is too easily accessed. You use a stun break but then get another cc so you use another stun break but here comes more cc. Even if you have stability, if it is more than one player those stacks are gone instantly, which sucks for professions who do not have a lot of access to it.Being immune to cc temporarily (no experienced enough to specify a time) after using a stun break would be nice. Sometime I wonder why I even bother slotting stun breaks.

A Discussion on GW2's Graphics
GaijinGuy.8476 replied to Tainted Outcome.7481's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
O P T I M I Z A T I O NThis is what Gw2 needs first. -
The best advice is to pick a profession, pick a build that fits a style you like (stealth, melee face smash, ranged etc) and then stick with it. Like actually stick with it. Find out what it can do, what it can't do, what match ups you really must run from. You are not going to be able to win all fights and you will eventually be able to adjust the build to fit your own play style as well.I personally play a hybrid (power/condi) longbow /dagger dagger soulbeast. It sure isn't the best build out there but I have made it work for me and I enjoy playing it. No one expects condi burst from a soulbeast with a longbow :)
