Alright, so… After running around Blazeridge Steppes for a bit, I decide to get the Vista on the broken part of the wall. I looked up on the other side of the gap and I think “Huh… I wonder if I can get over there”. So I spent a few minutes, and I found out: Yes, yes I can. Now, Maybe It’s just coincidental architecture, but you can continue on quite a ways. Unfortunately, there’s a gap I can’t seem to cross, but it does look doable, and it appears you can keep climbing the wall.

It’s been driving me insane, but I have to get some sleep before taking a crack at it again tomorrow. Here’s a map, slightly detailing the path and area I’m talking to. A is the start, B is where I’m trying to get, and the red X is the jump I can’t make.

If anyone else wants to take a crack at it, and see if it’s possible, that would be just awesome! If people care enough, I’ll post a video detailing it tomorrow, I’d do it now, but it’s sleepy time

There are quite a few places in GW2 that you can get to, but have never been intended for players to get there.
The german forums do have a thread with “unofficial Jumping Puzzles” which consist of locations that are harder to find and jump to then standard jumping puzzles. Most are acessible without consumables but a few require the use of portal guns or experimental rifles. You may also fall to your death through non-solid geometry if you dont pay attention
Here is the link if you want to take a look at them :
https://forum-de.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/suggestions/inoffizielle-Jumping-Puzzles
There are usually screenshots people post of the end-locations to prove they have been there so you should be able to figure out where everything is even if you dont speak german.

In Blazeridge Steppes there are 3 places (if I remember correctly) that have been mentioned. One ist on top of the wall quite close to the location you posted (we took another way up though) The other two are to the west of the map at about the same height or slightly to the north.

Since we dont know what the devs think about us leaving the “intended” map areas to explore and figure our paths out ourselves we have been rather hesitant to post a thread to the english forums, but now that the thread has been started I feel like we should share our discoveries.

Hahaha, that’s some kind of awesome! Thanks for the link!

I took a page out of your book and went and got a handful of Experimental Portal Guns…. I progressed further, but then fell through the ground to my death XD

I made it as far as I seemingly could though! It was super fun!

Well I didn’t need the gun to get to THAT point, that point was easy. I just used it to cheese my way over that gap I couldn’t reach Either way, this seems to be a fun new sport haha
