New to game and overwhelmed with the mass amount of shit you can do.
Where should I start? Does 100% map completion meen anything or am I wasting my time?
Iso help from pro chodelifers, thanks x]
Also the game has serious fucking frame rate issues, I played World vs World with 39205325 players, but I enter a swamp and go down to 5fps. Idk.
hey there!
I'll try to answer your questions as concisely as I can, but if you have more questions, feel free to pm.
1) yes. there is a ton of shit to do. Anet explicitly made the game so that you can level in a large variety of ways. where should you start? honestly, I would just start with basic PVE content. Do some map completion, run some events, and get a feel for your chosen character. Once you've gotten a bit more acquainted, there are several ways to level (most of which are more quick that map completion, but much less valuable to teaching actual game mechanics).
2) 100% map completion is valuable for several reasons. firstly, its a good way to explore, get some achievement points, some experience, and some map completion loot. secondly, if you ever want to craft your own legendary (as opposed to buying form TP), you will have to have 100% map completion.
3) dont know what a chodelifer is, so cant help there
4) large scale WvW or WvW on the top tier servers lags for just about everyone. I noticed significant improvement in frame rate when i changed my guild wars 2 client to windowed mode (as opposed to full screen) and when I turn down some of the graphics options
