Guild Wars 2

Just finished the Craze’s Folly jumping puzzle.
I feel like I kind of got screwed out of the big chest, because I didn’t go look it up on the internet beforehand.
I opened the first small chest (which contained a blue and a medallion) then said, ‘Hrm. No achievement?’ so I looked around, and found the actual large chest, which was already opened.
I went to Google, and found out that opening the small one precludes you from the second. I don’t know if they have the same loot table or anything, but I don’t think one should be penalized for wanting to complete a puzzle without looking up a video or checking dulfy.net.
Just saying. I feel like I have to check every jumping puzzle before I open the chest now.

Just do the puzzle again tomorrow and open the right chest!

Anet loves “gotcha!” gameplay. That first quest giver in Underworld for example.

The chests reset?
Hah, news to me.
I’ve never seen anything about that, just others complaining. Guess I’ll have to do so.

Yup, all chests reset after around 24 hours at most I believe. I don’t know the actual timing unfortunately.

I would like for chests at the end of such puzzles or those guarded by champions to scale with level of the looter and to give rare or higher loot as it’s highly disappointing to get a blue and a minor rune after all that.

Whatever happened to being rewarded for challenges?

Awesome.6120:

I fully agree and support this comment

walks away and brings back a mallet now here is your prize for reminding me off that *&^% ;-)

“I opened the first small chest (which contained a blue and a medallion) then said, ‘Hrm. No achievement?’ so I looked around, and found the actual large chest, which was already opened.”
Same for me today … maybe we shouldn’t open “small chest” before get large?
