Seems to be a new POI in Gendarran Fields. Any clue where it is at, or is it for the new jumping puzzle?

I have 16 poi done here and my map counter says I have 16 of 17. I cannot find anything that supports the 17 poi count? Is there 16 or 17? I have gotten world completion box and yet it still says only 99%

Probably something to do with the ship-thing sticking out of the mountain south-west of Broadhollow Bluffs

I found it, it’s next to broadhollow waypoint. The only think is there’s no way to reach it. In one place you keep getting tp’d back where it looks where you can go in. So i’m guessing it’s an instance..

I’m very sure it’s going to be a new jumping puzzle. Cause if you go to the place and change your camera angle. You can see one of the jumping platforms like the ones in the new dungeon

I also have found it, thanks Mrflsuhy. It must be threre for some days now, because i completet the map, and was a little confused. Because i had 16 Pois finished but it said 17.
When i try to approach this Poi, i move instantly to the point, where you are standing in your picture.

Edit:
Or it might just be a bug

It’s going to be a jumping puzzle I really do think. I think the reason it’s teleporting you is cause they never opened it yet OR its a bug.

I have the same problem, when i go on guild wars wiki they say that there are 17 POI but they show only 16, however, on the french one, they say that there are only 16 but i have 16 so i guess i would have my chess if there were really only 16 POI XD any idea when i’ll be able to get my reward? There’s nowhere (on the internet) mention of that POI but it appear on my map as undiscovered…

Because it’s not implemented yet. It will probably be out in the next few weeks as part of the current living story

I read some players talking about the 2nd July, although yet to see an official source for it. Makes sense as it fits with the next maintenance on Tuesday

Many thanks to Dedlaw , Flayre and MrFlushy for easing my headache, lol. I went to the location and found the same steam operated jumper that is in the new instance and yes I also got warped back off the rocks leading to it. Guess we will have to wait to see if it is bugged or the July implemention. As for the reward, I did get the completion and 2 gifts of exploration for, what I thought was World Completion:
Tasks 301\301
Waypoints 512\512
POI 722\723
Skill Challenge 202\202
Vistas 266\266

Thanks again all for the input!

Yeah, already saw that place few days ago.
You can hear weird mechanic sounds near the mountain.

Oh! the pain….

I’d be so much happier right now if they left the POI out of the game until it was accessible.

You cannot get to the PoI, yet the requirement is there for zone complete.

Turned in a bug report yesterday on an alt leveling there and trying to get zone complete (which I flagged as obstructed progress in the bug report.)

Sloppy.

As I said on 2nd thread regarding this:

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/There-s-a-mistake-in-gendarran-fields/first#post2305393

If it’s an event jump puzzle which is temporary content, it has no business blocking zone complete.

If it’s a permanent addition, it has no business being a requirement until the content is actually available.

Don’t mind waiting… posting in the hopes that something like this does not slip past again.

BG: 52 alts, 29 lvl 80’s. They all look good, so I am done with the game: Oct 2014

^^ This, I just wasted a half hour trying to get to it, only to find this thread. VERY angry right now, who had the bright idea of making something on the map you can’t get to and can’t complete all the POI requirments?

it is sloppy design. They should have implemented the poi when the jp goes live. Otherwise it looks bad. Really, details like this are what separates quality from a rush job.

Sloppy is actually being pretty kind. They’re not stupid, so this was most likely a a decision based on the number of people affected versus the 15 minutes it would take to code it out of the completion matrix.

They just flipped the bird at my guardian.

Nice necro, Unfortunately if you’d have read the thread you’d have seen that the POI was inaccessible due to a patch they where waiting for which has since been released. :p

This is in fact a jumping puzzle which is currently reachable and so is the POI:
