Hey guys,

For the sole purpose of getting this fixed, I will post several screenshots here of how this can be done so that ArenaNet can fix this before they launch it.

P.S. Well done on the map, after more playing I will definitely leave more feedback. Haven’t been able to group up large scale, just been walking around admiring the beautiful work your art/graphic designers have done.

Lastly, jump to #1 first, then onto #2. (If you have falling damage reduction trait enabled, you will survive this and have effectively skipped the outer walls/gates)

Isn’t this the same thing with the fire keep if you have the buffs to use the lava pools? Can’t you just go strait to the lord and ignore all the defenses?

Blackgate Native. It takes tremendous strength and skill to pull a lever.

All you have to do to get past the outer of Air Keep is to jump as shown in the OP’s screens. That is it. Its a very easy jump at that.

I think you need to actually own the lava keep in order to gain the shrine buffs.
Thing is, with this Air Keep, you can simply jump up a ledge you’re not supposed to be able to jump up (as seen in the third picture). They should just slightly alter these rocks, so that you can no longer jump up from that side and effectively skip the outer gates and walls.
