Hi all,

 

I have a system with:

 

-i7-4930k 3.4ghz six core

-16 gb RAM

-GTX 980

-Intel 900 Series SSD

-IMPORTANT: 2560x1600 monitor

 

I put the game at max settings just to see how it would run. On benchmark, I am getting only about 20-30 fps.

 

When I go to geforce experience for recommended settings, it suggests:

 

-Turn effects quality down to high from ultra

-Turn multi-sample anti-aliasing down from 4x to off

 

When I do this, I get about 40-45 fps

 

Questions:

 

1) Do I really need GTX 980 in SLI, even with this rig, to get 60fps at 2560x1600?

2) Would you run with what geforce experience is recommending or turn down the graphics even more to get steady 60fps?

3) What should I change to get steady 60fps with the least loss in my end-user graphics experience compared to max settings (i.e. what I would notice versus what I wouldn't notice)

4) Is there much of a change between what I would need to lower to in order to get 60fps? Is it honestly noticeable? Am I wasting money dumping $500+ to get another GTX 980 to get 60fps at max or will I really notice it?

 

Thanks much in advance

I had similar issues with my fps (I have a GTX 680M) and ended up turning down most of my graphic settings from high/ultra to medium cause I could not take the drops in fps anymore.

Now the game doesn't look as nice anymore but I get steady fps, and I'm not going back to high/ultra because I found the difference too noticeable.

Thanks for help. Was able to get it running smoothly now at about 45-55. All I had to lower is antialiasing to off - looks great. Everything else is at max - you guys rock.

one more quick question - is there a site or a place where I can quickly see a picture of and understand the various condition modifiers? I am just starting the game, and for example, my characters sometimes get one ability where they get a big blue bar, and then another one has a grey bar on her health that seems to be a barrier.

I see lots of references with text, but is there a place that shows all the condition modifiers with pictures?

 

Thanks for help

Those are the only two, grey is guard, mostly warriors generate that, but there are items either found or crafted that can give any class guard on hit.

 

The blue is in fact a barrier, it is a spell cast by mages.

 

Both act as additional health that must be destroyed before you take any actual damage.

 

Beyond that ability upgrades and items that grant other modifiers are pretty self explanatory. (A charging bull ring, for example, will make that abbility more effective, a guard damage ring will give you more damage to the enemy's guard, if it generated guard and, so on.)

The grey bar is your guard, the blue one is a barrier.  

 

You can check out the following link

Just scroll down to the "Guard, Barrier & Avoiding Damage" section and there are some more helpful tips for newbies.

 

Have fun getting into the game, hope you'll enjoy  :)
