Camera rotation scale issue

[Rouzzy.1073]

Dear developers and fellow players. I'm writing to you because knowing this issue of cataclysmic significance exists, it deters me from playing the game.
Eager to start playing a new character and blasting NPCs to oblivion, I have downloaded the game. After a few hours the game was ready to be played. I fiercely jumped in created my new Elementalist and there it was... the beautiful world of Guild Wars 2. With big anticipation I started to move around, jumped, dodged and rotated I have quickly fixed the key binds so they were crisp and then it happened. I used my mouse to rotate the character.

I was not ready for this. 

The camera began to move with un-taming speeds. From left to right like there was no real control. I quickly reacted by going into game settings and looked for camera rotation and there it was. The slider of my demise. Set to 100% of the value. I sighed under my breath and decided to lower it to the minimum and see what is going to happen.

In my surprise nothing has changed. After I double check the values. The slider is still set to the minimum amount.
I decided this is not acceptable. I shall fix the issue myself. Going in all of the settings I found in my computer... from windows mouse sensitivity to my mouse's dpi settings. I've tried everything. Nothing seemed to work. But then I found it. Lowering the dpi and increasing the windows sensitivity fixed it! HOORAY!

Yet despite the quick fix. A better solution presents itself. 

The issue is I am using a 16000 DPI mouse. Which kind of forces me to use low windows sensitivity. With that, my in game mouse behaves normally, but when I rotate my screen and character with right click (RMB) this sensitivity is somehow not used so it causes the screen to move rapidly. It is however possible to control the rotation with smaller movements. But with camera rotation slider set to a minimum and the camera rotation continuing to be really fast. I would label this as a bug of some sorts.

TL;DR
With 16000DPI mouse the camera rotation is out of control even with camera rotation settings set to the lowest possible value.

 

With the work around in place. It takes me 2 minutes each time I start and close the game to get back to normal settings and by that making me not wanting to even bother with the game.
Hopefully you can fix this issues as soon as possible.
I hope you enjoyed the story and Thank you for your time.

Kind regards,

Concerned player.

Whilst awaiting said suggested 'fix', you could just use a different mouse.

Only takes a second to plug one into the computer.

I spent a long time thinking that my mouse was in trouble. But I saw that the game has a small sensitivity bug, it runs the sensitivity set up smoothly, but during some fights at times the sensitivity drops dramatically, and even though I use 6000dpi, my screen becomes little, and this gets in the way quite a lot during raid fights.

yea I'm not running with different mouses for different games....

I have a high DPI mouse too, there's something called DPI settings that you can switch on the fly or using the mouse application.

If it's glitching out sporadically it might be because you are using a USB port or wireless connection that relies on CPU polling. Try a port directly connected to the CPU and not reliant on motherboard chipset.
