CoE exploration laser jumping challenge
Portal, Blink, Shadow Step
Pretty fun IMO, I can jump across usually on my first try on my warrior.
Just finished my full inquest set today
It’s really easy if you know the timing.xD
Agreed, it is just arficial difficulty and makes design so linear. They should allow more options such as running just through.
I’ve learned to enjoy the laser hall. Wait for the timing, hop in, and bounce my way across. I don’t even worry about stripping for it anymore, because I can usually make it through on the first try.
Then again, I did run it every day for a week. I’ve had practice.

THIS!!!! Really Anet should not make stupid mini games compulsory, provide 2 routes, 1 with the mini game and 1 with a much longer route with mobs, either do mini game or clear trash mobs…
Not everyone is good at mini games, and not every party has a mesmer or thief… There are times where i rather mow down trash mobs than waste time on mini games…
I’d rather see Anet bring in more puzzle/timing/jumping elements into dungeons. I run my Warrior through this dungeon, so I don’t use any blink mechanics to get myself through it.
Rather than just try to bulldoze through whatever is giving you problems, just relax and watch how it works instead. If I can learn to do this on EU servers, where I sometimes lag so badly that I actually have to time my jumps so that I am visually INSIDE the outer moving waves of lasers on my end, I hope you can do it on a normal connection.
I love that laser trap. There are several ways to cheese it if you really can’t stand it, though.
Lol I loved that part, we had a lot of fun doing it (and it took a long time to do it). If you really can’t, find a mesmer who can. I feel like TP is OP for jumping puzzle and the like though… ^^
Only bads have trouble with this…
here’s a tip: turn your camera sideways.

I look straight down, lol.
Anet,
Dont listen to the noobs. Keep the fun jump puzzles and mini-games in dungeons. So much fun.
The first time i ever ran CoE i died laughing so hard as i was repeatedly killed. (Pro-Tip take off ur armor) Seriously one of the most fun times i’ve had dieing with a party struggling to do a mini-game XD
On top of that, whats really COOL Anet was that it was a Multi-Person dependent puzzle. It made dungeon parties required talk with each other and communicate. I’d love to see more of these in the future.

P.S. – Learn to appreciate that a dungeon can be more then Kill > Next Mob > Boss > Boss > Last Boss. Its allows dungeons to seem more like an ADVENTURE then a slaughter-fest grind to the end.

Pro-Tip for ArenaNet: Stop traps from invoking equipment damage. It is extremely annoying, not just in CoE but also some of the jumping puzzles.

I actually agree with that. Although, armor on makes it more fun.
It’s fun as a Mesmer to do

If you do not use speedbuffs, you can hold jump+forward together for the same amount of time and get an easily replicable keystroke to clear one laser. You then only need to get into the rhythm, which is a fast one.
Naturally, you also have to undress.
Learn to play. Its easy once you know the pattern.
Also take off all armor before trying to save money.
