Post here if you have BEAT the Tower!
Human Elementalist, air magic passive speed boost.
Spent hours on it with my Asura, finally gave up because I either couldn’t see him or the camera would flip out.
Switched to my human, only to have it bug out three times in a row and send me straight to the water. Gave up for the day.
Came back today and tried it again with new major traits for the speed boost, got a group composed of mostly normal-sized models, finally made it! Adrenaline? Yes. Fun? Meh. Back to killing candy corn elementals and glow in the dark spiders!
Charr Mesmer no boost!
Kept getting to the stairs and bumping my head and falling. But I finally made it and got my booties. Oh sweet sweet victory.

Sylvari Nec. No speed boosts (they actually screw with my timing so I prefer not to have them).
Took me 4 hours to make it the first time. Now I’m almost at the point where I can farm it.

I really felt like a boss when I beat the Clocktower… so challenging! Fast-paced… adrenaline rush. Oh and by the way Human thief
I beat the stinking clock tower. It’s true that after you do it once, you can do it over and over from then on, but still if you make just one mistake, it’s over. And just because I finished it repeatedly doesn’t mean I appreciate it. I hated it then, and I hate it now. But I have OCD and so I had no choice but to finish it on all of my characters. I curse the memory of it, and its conception.
Tried it on my Norn for ~7-8 hrs total Friday and Saturday, didn’t get it – gave up completely. Then I watched some videos past couple of days and decided to try again and got it on 5th attempt today.
Human
Necro
No speed buffs
I dunno if they changed the difficulty or whether it was me being dumb the first 7-8 hours or maybe I just needed a few days break from it to give it a fresh start.
Naked Sylvari Ranger
So much fun…
Did it for the 1st time after about an hour of trial and error:
Sylvari Male Necromancer
Sylvari Male Guardian
Sylvari Female Elementalist
Human Male Mesmer
Charr Male Engineer
Sylvari Male Thief

After you have the pattern down it should be rather easy
Human Theif
No speed boosts
Completed it numerous times after the first hours of failing.
Challenging, rage inducing, but a lot of fun and rewarding
Warrior
Human Female
completed 10+times stopped counting.
No speed bonus
As our lives change, Come whatever, We will still be friends forever.
Sarah / Camille Shirayuki – Warrior / Mesmer
Thief, signet speed. Mesmer, no speed buffs. Took me about 40minutes to do it for the first time. Did it in 2 tries as a Mesmer. Both are human.
The puzzle is not “hard”. Just follow the most succesfull players movements.
Charr – Necromancer
Charr – Elementalist
Human – Engineer
Sylvari – Mesmer
Asura – Ranger
no speed boost on any of them
Norn – Warrior
After I got it down once, it is not so hard anymore.
finally did it today
4 humans
2 sylvari
2 norn
1 charr
no speed buff…once u beat it its not so hard anymore
Yay me. Asura Necromancer.
No speedboost of course ^^
A couple of notes. I felt like there is actually plenty of time. Also, even though I beat it as an Asura, I was only every really successful when I did well enough on the first part to get ahead of the group. I didn’t watch any videos of it (well, just one, but I wasn’t really paying attention), but I did manage to get into the main shard last night, which was mostly empty, and about half the people there were afk anyway. That really helped me map out how to do the first section without my screen being overcrowded much. It also helped when I zoomed in my camera a bit, I don’t know why it helped, but it did (maybe because the camera seizures weren’t as severe when it didn’t have to go in as far).
Still Haven’t done it on my Charr and Asura but here’s the ones I did it on-
Sylvari Ranger-no boosts
Norn Mesmer-no boosts
It’s actually quite fun once you get the hang of it.
Dragonbrand
Completed on Human Ranger
[SAnD] of Maguuma
Thieves don’t have a 25% passive speed boost. They have a 25% speed signet. And all utilities are disabled so you don’t have a speed boost. Very attentive I see.
“That big kitten Norn with The Juggernaut”
I have completed it on three different toons.
so far just my Asura guardian. No boosts, wearing her brightest coloured armour i could make in that orange-y environment
Finally got it after 2 days of trying and learning. I only have one active character, a human warrior.
I had fun learning it.
After my Sylvari I also did
Asura: was easy after my sylvari’s first time.
Norn: camera spazzed out a couple of times.
Charr : Just had to figure out where paws land and where you jump.
Still an amazing puzzle!
Completed in about 35 minutes, Mesmer, no speed boost.
My record was 12 times in a row to complete it, Sylvari Mesmer, no speed boosts.
Black Male Human. yes the Black man has hops. engineer and no speed boost because i I am Black

EASY
after 25 tries. Best jumping puzzle ever!!!!
Norn- Necro
Tarnished Coast
Beat it on my warrior, thief, and ele. At first I kept getting my kitten kicked, but it’s actually pretty easy once you get used to it.
Finally beat it last night with my human necro. No speed boosts or anything. I had to try it so many times though that it got to the point to where I was doing the first part mostly by knowing where to point the camera and jump by holding “w” the whole time and timing it to the music more than looking for any platforms that were constantly being hidden by the other models. When I completed it, there were 3 giant norns and 2 charr, so you never could really see anything.
Without any boosts/bonuses:
Human Thief: 4 times
Norn Warrior: 2 times
It was extremely frustrating on the first day but now I can make it to the top in 2-3 attempts.
Asura Necro
Wasn’t too bad once 4 of the Charr in my group had fallen off.
one time, human, no speed boost
Sylvani Ranger
Norn Necro
No speed boosts for either.
After finally beating it after too many hours over the weekend on my sylvari, I came back to it tonight on my low level Asura warrior with a fro. Got it again after about an hour. Many large bookahs were present.
WOOT finally and only took 12+ hours haha last jump scared me cause it looked like I didn’t make it and the loading screen came up and I thought I was going back to beginning. Man what a relief to finally get this cheeseburger.
