Human Ranger 5x
Sylvari Elementalist 1x
Norn Ranger 1x
Asura Warrior 1x

No buffs on any of them with the exception of the elementalist who is air attuned with run speed buff. In all honesty, the speed buff hindered me more than it helped as I was jumping too fast and too far most of the time. I switched back to fire attunement when I finally beat it on that character.

2ish hours, kept failing at the two beams before I realized you had to jump down. While I initially blamed my failure on a very large Charr in my instance, I eventually realized I was just not making optimal jumps and the Charr and I gave each other tips, eventually completing it within a few minutes of one another.

I love that puzzle.

It’s not my fault if S/P is not popular !!!

No Speed Buffs.

Took me 8 hours to learn the nuances, including fluffing a jump into the clock tower itself. Totally worth it, rewards are alright but the satisfaction is immense. Keep it as it is.

2-3 hours for my first completion, it’s fairly easy not that I have a rhythm.

I beat it…after like 5 hours total… and it was a little too hard IMO and no I didn’t get a “sense of great accomplishment” All I got was relief and joy that I never had to do it again.
Which is exactly the opposite of what you want for you content…..

Still enjoying all the other stuff though…Reapers Rumble is a blast….

After ~2hours of practice I completed it about 30 times farming for Trick-or-treat bags

I often get the last chest and still make it into the tower for almost 15 ToT bags every other run (there’s a 1 round cooldown between bonus chests)

No speed boost. Took about 4 hours for first win on my necro and I was only able to complete it this time because everyone had exited the instance at about 3 am. The final jump into the clock was very forgiving on my comp, I didn’t even hit the clock and was still loaded into it. After that I finished on my fiancees guardian using her comp which has a smaller monitor and it was extremely difficult to make the last jump, I had to hit the hole in the clock window almost dead on which required me to actually guess when to jump because I needed to start moving for the jump almost right before I could see the clock on the rotation that the window breaks. After that I completed on my elementalist with other players there in only a few tries. No speed boost used on any characters.

Easily the most challenging jumping puzzle ever designed. Made me look at the rest of the game in an entirely new light, as everything else by comparison is easy.

Don’t listen to the whiners, you guys did a wonderful job designing it, devs.

Only thing that kind of got on the way were big Norns and some trolls with spirit trees but eventually you learn the path so well you don’t need to really see your character you get a feel for where he is.

Just beat it! Ah the feeling of accomplishment and excitement is overwhelming!

And people asked to nerf it… That feeling when you get a bit ahead of other players and they fail to follow you and fall into slimy greasy green substance….

Did it with smallest norn warrior, helped (/evilgrin) a lot of players with swiftness from banners while i learned course myself. =) It took about an hour to complete it with 1st character without help of youtube videos (because none were available right after act II started).

War doesn’t determine who is right, only who is left.

I beat the tower after about an hour of learning the jumps.
Human Warrior with no speed boost took me about an hour to finish

Human Female Mesmer – COMPLETE
Norn Female Ranger (slightly larger than average size) – COMPLETE
Asura Male Elementalist – COMPLETE
Charr Male Warrior (max size) – COMPLETE, but it was an absolute kitten to do.
Sylvari Female Necromancer – COMPLETE

No speed boosts were used for any of them. My Mesmer was the first to attempt it, and it took me well over an hour before I finally learned all of the tricks for the puzzle and where to shave off a precious few seconds here and there. After that though, it’s basically become muscle memory and I can make it to the end almost every single time.
