Guild Wars 2

So I was exploring southsun cove, looking for the orichalcum veins. Since I didn’t know any better, I was looking for the orichalcum vein in ember passage by wandering around the karka hive’s entrance. I actually found a hidden cave entrance.

After venturing inside, there was a tricky jump over a hole deep enough to kill you. [img]http://i.imgur.com/psIPf.jpg[/img]

I explored a bit and found a few areas you can get stuck in.

And in some places the floor height doesn’t match the floor height.

But the really neat things are the hidden passages to ember passage.

This one will almost kill you when going down it, if you don’t land on a ledge at just the right height to save you.

But the really neat one is this one:

It may not look like much, but it’ll drop you right next to the orichalcum vein in ember passage without having to fight your way through an army of karka. You just have to survive some tricky jumps that will probably kill you instead.

And also, all this empty space seems like the perfect place to stick a jumping puzzle into.

EDIT: Huh. The BBCode isn’t working…

EDIT2: With some fall damage reduction and some tricky ledge dropping I managed to get down to the bottom of that hole that would instantly kill you.

I appear to be stuck down here now, though. Anyone want to throw me a rope ladder and also implement climbable rope ladders into gw2?

xD – teleport out.

it appears you’ve managed to walk outside the intended play area hence it looks weird, you’re seeing backface surfaces of the caves and stuff. I’ve found similar areas in Cursed Shore and Sparkly Swamp

For the final Lost Shores event, my overflow found this. We fell down the dead end shaft and died. It was sooo funny watching everyone follow us in only to die and be stuck!! Some people survived the fall and rezzed everyone up, but there wasn’t anywhere to go! Hah!

I was wondering around today and it looks like they closed the entrance to this. Unfortunate.
