  • Fine tuning your game settings is very important to your overall game experience. Here in Guild Wars 2 there are a lot of settings with different wording that may be little difficult to understand. Not to mention some of the default settings are not very optimal. In this video I will be going over the settings that I think are most important to know about, along with recommendations on what to set them to.
    If you think I missed any other important settings feel free to politely share in the comments section :)

    Highly recommend player names turned on just to find some hilariously named characters like Cuddles Your Mother, Pedestal Turd, U Can Call Me Mommy, Kecskesajt (Goatcheese) and many more I can't recall right now😂

    turning reflections and shadow off while keeping bloom and color grading enabled is straight up a felony

    Less than a minute in, and you answered my most pressing question, I keep losing my cursor to visual clutter, THANK YOU!

      Yeah, GW2 is notorious for this. I use Yolomouse mostly because in the past this was the only way to solve the issue. Nowadays GW2 has it's own settings for a bigger mouse arrow as the video shows.

    getting FOV to around 55-65% helps a lot in maps like amnytas and the wizard tower map + environment to minimum can get u some respectable FPS (also dont forget to lower shadows)

    • @Aranimda
      @Aranimda 17 дней назад +1

      Indeed, the downside of a high FOV is that: The more you see the more has to be rendered. If you have low FPS, lowering FOV will lighten the load on your system a bit increasing FPS.

    I hadn't revised my settings in years until a few weeks ago, when I found out the standard cursor with the bright outline was NOT an addon lol
    Good video - I do like some water reflection for immersion, and for me there was no extra performance cost though I realize that varies from system to system.

    best setting for most group content is all low settings except character model limit ... make that medium or something so things don't feel lonely and out of whack when you see like 3 people melting the ley line anomoly

    Binding keys to specific mount has been helpful for me. I can switch from raptor, springer, siege turtle to skyscale without going through the dropdown. I found this very helpful for me in exploration/travel and fast paced combat (if you are able to get out of combat). I have 'X' as may default mount key and Alt + as dedicated mount key

    A really good video. Long enough but not as long as many so bonus points for you. I learned quite a bit.
    On remapping keys, I've always been afraid to take the plunge for two reasons:
    - I worry about how long it will take me to regain my current fluency. aka, I don't want to be at a speed/smoothness disadvantage that gets me killed for who know how long?
    - Important options are different for different classes, particularly on the F-keys.
    For example, F1 is a major key for Reaper Shroud but a similar major key for Holosmith Photon Forge is F5 but I don't assign the same importance to Chronomancer Continuum Split on F5. Second Example: Ranger: F1 is pet Attack My Target, F3 is pet Return to me but on Mechanist: F6 is pet Attack My Target and F7 is pet Return to Me.
    So consider me timid.

    6:33 the only time double tap to evade ever was a problem for me was the wintersday and halloween festival JPs ... other than ithat i generally do not see an issue with it for slight movement adjustments press w/e directions you want to go in and go bak and forth between going forward and w/e side you are trying to go to.does the same effect you want and it's pretty fluid in combat.

    Useful guide.
    If you want a bit of an easier gameplay with ground target skills, use the following:
    Ground targeting: Instant
    Snap ground target to current target: Enabled
    This allows you to use ground target skills as skills that work on the selected enemy. You lose some precision that ground targeting gives you but makes casting quicker and easier. Recommended when you like the casting that many other MMO's have, including Guild Wars 1.

    the snap ground target isnt a bad option
    it centers AoEs on targets
    ideally most aoes would be good to center on enemies and bosses, esp for damage over times to ensure theyre in the best spot and to prevent having to use the cursor to aim the aoe
    they let you hotkey to swap it on and off also incase u have to aim your aoe exactly like for pulls or something (but u can just untarget an enemy and do that anyway too)

  • @Thakkii

    If you join metas i would advise to turn off Npc names as this is the only option i found out ,that disables Necromancer pet names and there is a lot of them ( ranger pets as well)
    Wish there was a option just for pets.

  • @Sumatakso
    @Sumatakso 17 дней назад

    For me I'm always turn player name off. I don't really have any reason to see all players name at all time especially during meta. I wish I can also turn player pets (mech, minions, ranger pet) name off.
    For the about face if you're mainly use free camera it is a good option. But I'm switching between action cam and free camera base on class like in bladesworn for example I'm always on action cam since there're only 1 ground target skill with very close range. In action cam if you press a move direction your character will directly look on that direction without any setting.

    Field of view: just keep it at maximum if your pc is not a potato... Like mine. Believe it or not, this setting can dimish your fps in game.

    Playing PvP and WvW I strongly disagree on "Double tap to evade" - very very useful in competitive modes, I switch it off only for jumping puzzles
