![Which Guild Wars 2 EXPANSION Should you Buy? [Late 2023!]](/img/n.gif)
Make sure to try the game without the marker pack addons, at least for map exploration, as it was the way the game was meant to be experienced. Stumbling upon side quests and interesting side stories or random events is the most fun part about Guild Wars 2 Exploration!
Good info and recommendations. I use ArcDPS, but found GW2Radial unnecessary for my playstyle. I have all but the Turtle and Warclaw mounts, so a few ALT+ keybinds suits me fine. I tried Blish but found it a little daunting. After this I might have to give it another try just for the pathing option. Thanks for the details on that one.
Man i hope you make more videos on Gw2 one day, starting playing for the past 3 months or so and your videos are quick, easy to follow and have great info!
Thanks mate! Appreciate it! I am planning on making regular videos soon! Comments like this help motivate me! Cheers!
I use tou se GW2 Radial a ton but after the DX11 release, it was a struggle to get it to actually work.
I use BLISH Hud Radial now, it works almost as great as GW2 Radial.
I don't use the DPS meter on ARCDPS. It does have extras you can add to it like the SCT (scrolling combat text) and makes it look better with the text of buffs and dmg setup on either side and also shows the skills used. I also use the matrics that shows my ping and FPS so I can see if I need to adjust my graphics for better performance during WvW and events.
Blish HUD has a radial-mount selection built in too. So I just use it instead of having a separate radial add-on
Yes But if you also use arc dps, then I feel like its better to just get it from the addon manager as you don't have to open the application every time you launch the game. With Blish HUD you need to launch it every time you launch the game and I dont like to launch Blish for every game session as it takes up too much of CPU recourses
@@coffeedart_gw2 I see. Thanks for the info :D
When trying to open the GW2-Addon-Manager, im getting this error! "Github servers returned an error, The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden." ? Any fix ?
BlishHUD won't accept my API. I have deleted and remade the API 5 times and it keeps saying "Invalid API". What is going on?
Has anyone had any problems installing these. I tried and followed the instructions from Muklukk and some others. But nothing shows up. Sometime I can see a brief overlay of blishhup ...but nothing seems to work. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks ahead of time.
I use the add-on manager. only on some occasions do I have to manually go in and remove the folder and readd it or clean out some of the old updates.
@@insertname6143 add on manager? What do you mean good sir?
@@zaahruq It is shown at the end of this video. I just googled GW2 addon manager.
I have put the link in the description as well for the addon manager
Item Search should be highlighted as blish addon, it is game changing for managing inventory. Also, gw2clarity should be mentioned for UI display customization of different boons/conditions/other things.
I knew about item search but never tried UI display customisation! Will check it out! Thanks. There's so many good add-ons on blish! Inquest chipset is another that comes to mind where you can bind 1 key for jump dodge rolling but I don't use it any more as I have kinda "mastered" jump dodges haha
Did Anet change their opinion about addons? Because I remember a time when stuff like this could get an account shut down.
It's an "overlay" which means that it sits on top of the game with only allowed API access. You have to provide an API key that accesses only Account, Character, and Progression information from GW2 website. It's not an invasive or cheat addon.
Are these addons against Anet ToS though?
the addons are fine with ToS sofar
the addon devs also responded when anet wanted em to adjust certain things which would provide advantages in pvp
just dont blame people for bad dps when you see it in arcdps
overlays like blishhud or taco are also fine they even use gw2 own api calls
@@wanya6046 ty for replying. This is true. All the addons mentioned are within ToS and can be used safely
alt shift m donsnt work for me
is this available in steam version as well?
Guild Wars 2: yes
The addons: I don't know, but i think not, only for the ArenaNet Accounts, which have a seperat luncher then Steam
It seems to work for me on steam.
There is an add-on to reduce the other players skills?
There shouldn't be, that would be hacking. That is definitely against the rules, will get your account banned if you're caught using it, and other players will most likely hold a grudge against you for being one of those players. Hacking is frowned upon all around, nobody likes a cheater.
@@reinettesylfgreinar365 wooosh
no TacO?
Unfortunately Blish HUD seems to break g sync :x
Oh wow. Did not know that. That's unfortunate
Break in what way? I noticed some flickering, especially on map and loading screens that seems to have gone away when I disabled gsync...
works fine with my gsync.
@@Thomas21408 would you mind sharing how you set it all up? V sync on or off in game and settings in Nvidia control panel? Thanks!
@@pietersoetaert6625 well I have vsync off in game. and have just enabled gsync in the monitor settings in nvidia control panel.
gw2 is using my global settings in 3D settings which defaults to using program settings. SO vsync off everywhere and gsync enabled in monitor settings aswell as 3D settings
Be careful, I tried some of these add on things and they kept crashing my game. User beware.
Gw2TACO over Blish HUD
I'm starting to agree as it is the only one I can get to work properly. Well, work. I installed for first time and I have icons all around my screen for waypoints. It's really messy.
@@GuruChaz first thing i disabled, look in the settings, it's something like "hoarding icons screens edge" don't know but it's there.
DPS addons must go, for fuck's sake =) This is a tool for pro guild raiders, why do you suggest it for broader audience? Or you want for GW2 to end up in the same cesspool of community as WoW?
Arenanet has said about Arc DPS. Basically it is only allowed or as long as it is not used to cut people out of content. I have literally seen people get a short ban because they posted their Arc DPS meter in chat. Believe me I played WoW 15+ years so I get where you are coming from but GW2 and its community is no where near as toxic and its devs and GMs really do work hard to keep that under control. WoW only got so toxic because Blizzard let it get that way.
I understand your point of view. But like I mention in the video, it can be a good tool for you to understand where you stand and I don't have it on all the time and I don't use it to check how others in my party/squad are doing. It is an incredible useful tool for build theory crafting.
@@coffeedart_gw2 Yep, no objections here. For that matter I think Anet should make it a tool inside the game, attached to golem dummy. That would make sense.
Ye, dps add-ons sucks... Only make the game toxic.
@@tsunaproxD That's very subjective. I'm fairly new to GW and it's very frustrating that I need to download something just to see what my performance is.
