Zeronical.6207 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 After the Beta Update, my Ranger's shortbow 2 been causing my game to literally freeze for like almost a second after the skill hits, asked some other people to try it out, it isn't happening with all of them, but 4 other people confirmed it happening to them. Tried lowering graphics, different heights, situations, single mobs, pack of mobs and dummy targets. Still happens after a fraction of second after the confirmed hit. To replicate you just have to hit shortbow 2, apparently the closer you are to the target, worse is the effect, no effect whatsoever if you don't actually hit something, it's something tied to the hit. Be it condition/damage application of the skill in particular, couldn't notice it with any other "shotgun type skill". Please if someone can try and take a look at this one, I created a Ranger just to be condi, but it's absolutely frustrating getting freezes everytime I use my main shortbow 2 skill... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lymology.6034 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Even when I don't hit any enemies it still freezes. And it almost seems completely random how bad the freezes are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anduriell.6280 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Then I would do a repair of the files and remove all the addon. In any case I would contact anet support, they give a good service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hadi.9752 Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 hello , i can confirm that this issue is not on our end , as i did all the steps that are posted above followed by teseting .. even reinstalled windows and the problem still there no matter what i do ! so this is clearly not on my end . i hope for a fix soon as this makes my game unplayable and the combat is very very annoying trying to dodge in these millisecond situation and such . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr White.8536 Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Ever since beta started, I've notice that micro stuttering when in instances like strikes, raid, fractals, pvp. I've no idea who is causing it but I also believe that some skills are causing that micro freezes. Really annoying. Hopefully this can be solved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadLysol.7901 Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 I get the micro stutters as well on my end when my clones apply a debuff with my mesmer and when I use Poison Volley on my ranger. I have tested with the default dx9 client, d12pxy mod and dxvk mod, they all have the same hitching with certain abilities (really easy to notice with Ranger Poison Volley). It does not do it all the time but defiantly enough to be annoying and break immersion. Does not matter if my settings are on highest or lowest. SPECS BELOW Win 10 PRO latest patch i5 9600k RTX 2060 Super (471.68 Drivers) 16G RAM Onboard Realtek Audio 512G NVMe Samsung MSI Z390 Mobo 750W Seasonic Platinum PSU APC 1500 UPS I hope the migration to DX11 will mitigate this.

Mr White.8536 Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 I just had a pvp game against mesmer that whenever he cloned himself he caused everyone freeze. Something weird is going on with the game lately. I really hope this get fixed. I literally had a slide show during the fight. Dropping from 100 to 20 fps every second.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaFishBob.6518 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Some insight, it doesn't cause a stutter for me when there are enough characters on the screen that the attack visuals for this skill disappear before finishing completely.

Yes that is correct. It's ok when in zerg at WvW but it gets quite bad during pvp when I'm getting freezes every few seconds... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diaspro.8529 Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Getting poison volley micro-stuttering too. No matter how I lower graphic settings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jariel.9274 Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Same problem here. I'm getting crazy, don't know what graphic setting I have to lower to prevent or mitigate this issue. In PvP is driving me crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gomoratoad.9867 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Having the same issue here. The problem does seem tied to the poisoned arrow visual itself, because the only thing that gets rid of the stutter for me is The Dreamer shortbow skin, which modifies the projectile graphics (I assume Chuka & Champawat/any other skins that change the projectiles would do the same, but I don't have them to test it). I tried various graphics settings and disabling Reshade (I don't use any other mods/overlays), but none of that helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I tried all the combinations. On top of that skill also weaver's 2nd sword skill causes the stutter. On 11/6/2021 at 9:03 PM, Gomoratoad.9867 said: Having the same issue here.

I've uninstalled the game and tried on the clean setup. Nothing helps.... Also I adressed the issue to Anet via tickets, but no respond. The issue has been with us for quite a while already and haven't seen any response yet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memeren.1057 Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Noticed this bug yesterday while doing Twilight Arbor explorable forward path. Those nightmare archers spamming their shortbow skill redused my fps by ~20 every time. They don't have any fancy projectile effects, it has to be tied to the skill.
