  1. We had the same experience in a battle at Hills. When I arrived, about half the structures were invisible, and remained so for the next fifteen minutes, then we experienced an autoboot from wvw for a patch. There were still assets missing after relog as well. Blackgate and Sea of Sorrows.

  2. The lag in places like the Thunderpeaks isn't about graphics settings, or the number of people on your screen, or even about the number of people in the zone, at least in my experience. I have crafted a couple of full sets of diviner's gear in the last month, so I have spent a lot of time there, and I have experienced extreme skill lag in many different situations, including farming the rooms of the dwarven catacombs late at night in between the meta event times, when there was essentially almost no one in the zone. This was always done at the lowest graphics settings; i.e. the best performance option. I will get patches of two to three second skill lag, and can barely use the treasure search special action, and this has happened at times when I appeared to be the only person in the Dwarven Catacombs. I have also done this without a problem, then seen the skill lag come back right when a meta group enters the zone for the next event while I am in the catacombs. It isn't as simple as graphics settings, the number of players in the zone, or the number of players in proximity to your game; there has to be something else going on.

    The merchants in the current festival only offer LS3 currency, so that one is out.

  4. The personal story is all pretty doable if you just work on the basics of movement, including dodge rolls, and give some thought to how you use your skills; you might want to look at a build guide to make sure what you are doing is viable as well. Beyond that, there are certain parts of the story that require some recognition of what the mechanics are at any given point; if you are unable to get any progress against certain bosses, you also might want to do a bit of research. My favorite example of that was a certain instance in the season 4 fights where I had to bond with Aurene with a special action key to finish a fight on a platform in a room surrounded by water, and I went in with a full minion necro that the opponent used every round to heal back to full over and over. After about a half an hour of cycling this with no resolution, I managed to finally finish that chapter, and then went and looked up what I had just fought, and the advice was to bring no minions, and get off the center platform, since Aurene did all the damage.

  5. We just failed a reasonable populated north meta attempt; the lag was repeatedly 10 to 15 seconds in waves, and we made it through to the riftstalker, and didn't even nick his health. Every command was taking a few seconds with complete frequent freezes for 5 to 10 seconds. This map is always problematic, but this was completely a waste of time. Anet, are you addressing this at all?

  6. Hi, I am a returning player that last played in 2014, and I have been logging in, trying to refresh my memory, and leveling up one new character for the last couple days, after buying the expansions. My old guild is dormant at this point, and I am a somewhat elder player by normal standards here, though I catch on pretty quickly ;). After almost six years off, I have lots of catching up to do, and hope to keep it semi-casual. I did get into early fractals in the last few months that I played, and made a few pieces of ascended stuff, but I will be starting out well below that until I can reacquaint myself with the game. I do hope to catch up on the story as well, and will leave WvW for later (I focused on that in the old days and got a bit burnt out).
