Sick Freak: I am down but would like to change 9:00cst to 8:00cst. I have work all this week and don't want to drag arse out of bed in the morning.

VABuckeye: Between traveling for games and CST I haven't done any runs. I'm EST and my weekdays start early. I still enjoy being in the guild. Hopefully I can start getting some runs in with the group.

Yeah, I suppose that time wasn't a very other-time-zone-friendly time to get started. Even worse yet, I wasn't able to get on today until late late late(around 10:30) due to some fatherly duties that took a tad longer than expected.

On that note - if we try to get together say around 6:30-7:30PM CST to form up - would that help make it more do-able or is that worse? If you don't mind, please post here if you plan on making it! If there are no objections by that time tomorrow and peeps are on we can get started!

GeauxTime9: yeah i saw that i just don't know what to do that will give me the best fps. Any opinions?

I'd definitely see if you have any updates for drivers. What type of system are you running AMD/Nvidia on-board or it could be a few other types? Laptop make and model number if you aren't sure and we can find it. An easy way to have your FPS always show is to download FRAPS(you can set it up to use the on-screen display[OSD] only by disabling all the other features). Personally I love MSI afterburner( Link) it is incredibly customizable and last time I checked it worked for all types of graphics processors/drivers to display FPS and other data on-screen. Actually, I lied - the easiest way to see your FPS is to have your options open while in-game and it tells you in the bottom right corner of the screen.


As far as in-game settings go if you are looking for a great boost to performance start with the "Settings Preset:" under Options> Display> Advanced Settings set that to "Best performance". Then go up to the top of that same page and make sure resolution is set to full screen. After that go through all the advanced settings(other than the preset you changed earlier) and make each one either "Low" or "None" except for where it says "Render Sampling" you want "Subsample" or "Native". Last you can try unticking all the stuff at the bottom(esp. hires textures). FPS of around 20 is actually playable, lol.

P.S.: Almost finished with mah [WarS] project(s)! I hope it'll really simplify some stuff for us as a guild.

Edit reason: OMG sorry for the text wall, it just happened.

Earlier would definitely help.

I coach high school basketball fall league tonight and Thursday so I won't be available. Friday I leave for Columbus for the Purdue game. This is just a bad week for me.

I know, I'm a pain in the arse but I love to see the Buckeyes play.

Have a pint for us while you are there.

On a totally unrelated note.

Does anyone know how to pull off a combo hit.
I see where it's possible but can't figure it out.
Maybe it isn't something that can be done alone?

BTW, I'm a Norn Warrior dual wielding axes.

I can't resist....thou shall not level to 80 by crafting less you don't know how to perform a combo

Just kidding...fire and ice fields as well as a spin move for the finisher seems to work.

Good to see a few folks will be on, Merrik...Ireland...pfft....that doesnt sound like fun at all!

Why did you leave me!?! Look what I've become! Addicted to non-mmo/GW2ish RPGS!? Oh the horror! Please hold me...

Ahem, wait........

What?

^^^^That wasn't me.

I have a link somewhere thats on the official GW2 wiki, try to search combo fields and see what that comes up with. Dependent on whom starts what kind of combo determines how you finish said combo. IE: some type you have to be within when you use your ability to activate the combo, other combo fields your character has to jump through them.

anyone on dragonbrand

I'm not on right now but will add you when i get home from work if someone hasn't yet.

Larger guild bank in less than 24 hours - yipee

Im on the fence about buying. Diablo3 really shite on my parade. Played WoW for a long time and enjoyed but it got to repetitive. All of you seem to be enjoying it, so im want to give it a shot but would like yalls opinion first.
