This could be the reason for the OP's crash: AMD Athlon + Motherboard.
I think we can rule out ATI graphics cards as the reason, as it works with my mobile Radeon.
I just wonder why it happened to a Core 2 Duo, too. But at least it only froze and did not crash the system.

P.S.: Why do you kill baby raptors around xmas? Do they drop good stuff or just for Asura points?

Ele swords and heaps of crap golds for your wisdom title. In my experience they drop tons of dyes as well.

Guys, remember some of us need to have BOTH visages up for this to happen, sykoone, you only had one up.

Also, i cant see how this bug would lead to a NERF of the visages, that just doesnt make any sense..

While i don't have a warrior to where-ever the spot is to try it myself since i don't play warrior much at all, i HIGHLY doubt it's an athlon only thing.

Standard programing practice: if proper fix is not easy, and workaround is, guess what happens. And if workaround would be nerfing visages so that they wouldn't trigger THAT much ... yeah.

Thou, i think it would be easy fix, because sympthoms point to game not handling properly huge amount of things (fixed size undersized array that stores "particle" objects?), which means that as little as increasing one constant could help.

Well, we can rule out the AMD Athlon + Motherboard as reason too, since i have a Gigabyte motherboard and an Intel CPU.. I dont think this is hardware related.

BenjZee · Dec 14, 2007, 11:11 AM // 11:11

that is so great. Nice build by the way. Might try it out in other areas

tipiak · Dec 14, 2007, 11:13 AM // 11:13

- try to set the graphics lower
- try to switch off after-processing graphics
- try to switch off interface : Ctrl+Shift+H or Alt+Shift+H, I can't remember

Otherwise, it could be an "WTH_too_much_info_GOREDENGINEGOREDENGINE
GOREDENGINEGOREDENGINE_lag_kill_myself_computer_sh utdown" thingy.

The OP's build is pretty bad anyways it has no healing skill, couldn't possibly work anywhere in HM without some form of healing skill.

Hello clown and welcome to Guildwars. Raptors deal pure physical damage only. With the visages they are unable to use any skills so only deal the damage of their weapons. If you can reduce that damage significantly, giving you enough time to kill them before they kill you, you have a successful farm.

Also, wary stance will protect against all damage from the raptors should your HP start going down, but I'm sure the OP build could manage the raptors fine.

After all, look at how many hits he/she has taken in the OP's picture, and look at the red HP bar. It hasnt even taken any damage.

This one shows slowing down of client already.. and a strange blue glow around me. 1 second after this screenshot, my screen froze completely, only to be solved with control alt delete..

did it crash without texmod ?

Fear the purple haze of doom.

I think you could be onto something here, seeing as some people didn't crash..
Try lowering the graphics settings, in particular the shader quality.

bhavv · Dec 14, 2007, 12:25 PM // 12:25

Guys I didnt crash or slow down or lag or anything

And that was with SV and Mantra of earth

Amd X2 4400+
ASUS A8R32-MVP Deluxe
2 gig ram
ATI X1900 xtx

Did I aggro enough? I dont last long enough to get anymore lol. I only did it to test if it would crash or not. The interupts pwned me yea.

no you didnt, you need to agro all of the raptors in the cave (i see your radar)

bhavv · Dec 14, 2007, 12:31 PM // 12:31

Yes thats what I thought. Maybe other people that didnt crash didnt aggro all of them too. I need to find somewhere without interupts to test this build though.

BTW why does guru show the kinetic armor picture for armor of earth? Crazy.

can you not drop silver armour in place of some anti interupt for that area? (seeing as the point is not to kill the mobs anyways and if you manage to pull off both visages....)
