  1. It looks like its a bug on the Mac client then... it has been in beta since forever. You can submit a CS ticket for someone at Anet to look into your issue directly. It will take a while for them to get to your ticket though. Only other thing I would have suggested is to clear the cache. Unfortunately I'm not able to find any instructions for Mac.
  2. Sounds like a texture issue. Try repairing the clienthttps://help.guildwars2.com/hc/en-us/articles/201863008-Repairing-the-Game-Client
  3. It does not change the tools for all characters. You get one pick, axe and sickle that can only equipped by a single character at any one time. But they can be freely transferred to your other characters to use. There is no level restriction, so a newly created level 2 character can equip them. Most of us use the shared inventory slots to share tools between alts.
  4. https://www.kotaku.com.au/2016/11/evga-prepares-fix-for-overheating-nvidia-gtx-1070-and-gtx-1080s/ Just a recent well known example of overheating of the non-GPU variety to back up my suspicions of my own issue. (Although mine wasn't the same brand or GPU)
  5. I'll back up what abomally said with my personal anecdote. I've had a graphics glitch where a polygon on an item/character would suddenly throw colored streaks across my screen. I could reset it by reducing graphics to best performance then going back to my original setting. No amount of game updates, driver updates, OS reinstalls would fix it, nor would other games or software/stress testing reproduce it. My GPU had a very aggressive factory overclock that was known to be at the limit of what that specific chip could achieve. I've updated to a new GPU last month... guess what... the glitch hasn't come back since. Another point about overheating. Not every component in your computer that is heat sensitive actually has a temp sensor on it. My old GPU for example, never overheated. But the glitch happened more often on hot days. I've long suspected that some other component was overheating; GRAM or VRMs maybe... don't have a thermal camera so I could never prove it. In my experience, RAM is another component prone to give strange errors in specific circumstances that is hard to diagnose and reproduce. The hours of my life I've wasted troubleshooting with software, only to fix the problem by removing the offending stick. My point is, I agree with abomally in that certain hardware problems are very, very hard to pinpoint.
  6. When you say shut down, do you mean completely powering off? That's usually a symptom of a hardware problem. The overheating or a failing power supply are the common culprits but it can be a variety of things. What are your system specs?
  7. On the TP, search for "Recipes of the Dwarven". It'll show you the Armor, Cloth and Leather options... approx 2g atm. I got an armorer version from the final room reward in 50/50 puzzle at Fortune's Vale. I think it costs 1 g to attempt it, and the chance of guessing correctly is small (50%x50%x50%=12.5%) so maybe better to just buy it on TP.
  8. I found it pretty fair as a mini-game. It took me about 10 tries to get it right. Definately not as difficult as some of the HoT adventures... Fallen Masks anyone? For anyone struggling, turn on "Show all usable object names" in your options menu. It'll make recognizing the right item much easier.
  9. The guys above are correct. An application cannot power down your system when it crashes. At worst you may need to restart your system to get it working correctly, but it shouldn't be able to restart the system by itself. You can try stress testing your system to see if it can be replicated. Just run Prime95 and Furmark simultaneously. It could be something as simple as a heatsink that's not seated correctly or a loose power cable, or it could be a faulty component. But if you're not experienced enough to do your own trouble shooting, bring it back to the shop.
  10. Maybe, but my bf tried different browsers and whole different computers in my house and even tried when he went back home in another state but he couldn't buy it still with this problem. A friend who hadn't bought the game could buy it though, so that's how we got around it. In your case, something has tripped the automated fraud detection. I was talking to someone else in the old forum who had a similar situation. It was only after she had contacted CS that the issue was fixed.
  11. I don't have any experience with them myself, but by reputation, Omron switches are supposed to be the best available. Any mouse using those tend to advertise the fact quite loudly.
