Guild Wars 2

I’ve attempted this puzzle at least 50 times now, I think it’s really awesome and challenging, but every single time i try, I get ported out randomly at different times for no apparent reason. I get ported out even if I’m standing on a platform or in mid air and when I’m far above the green ooze stuff. I’ve watched videos on how to do it and I jump as fast and as accurately as I possibly can. I cannot get further than the first 20 seconds of the jumping puzzle without getting ported out for no apparent reason. Is this just me or are there others experiencing this same problem?

When you test something without having people from different regions, you can’t factor lag into the mix.

What you see and what happens in the server are different things.

You are being caught by the fog, but you can’t see it, because there’s no leeway for those with the tiniest bit of lag.

Well I live in South Africa, thers not much I can do about lag since I’m very far from the server. Does this mean its impossible for me to get this achievement? I cannot get passed half way without being kicked out. If I can’t get this achievement I can’t get the Emissary title. Which seems a little unfair..

You don’t need to complete it for the Emissary title.

I have some friends who also lag and can’t really complete this puzzle (at least I haven’t seen them do it yet). But it isn’t needed for the title.

It does however, grind your gears, if you are a completionist.

I’m glad its not needed for the title ^^ although I would like the achievement, but I don’t think its worth spending hours on if I can’t complete it due to lag. Oh well :\

I’ve experienced the same thing the OP is describing. I’m sure it wasn’t the fog as sometimes I’m ahead of the pack and there are people jumping behind me. The only thing I can think of may be lag on my end and that I may have in fact slipped off an edge (server end) but it isn’t what I see on my screen.

I’ve also at times been at the front of the pack, I’ve done the beginning jumps so many times now that I know them pretty well and I hardly make mistakes. Most of the time the fog appears to be very far beneath me, my lag isn’t so extreme that I would have a 5 second delay. I don’t think there’s any more that I can do to help it though
