Guild Wars 2

I was wondering if there was a list of places this is useful. I just recently got it, and now I am not really sure where I can use it…

I’m not sure there is a list but we can try to build one here.

1. Auric Basin has a Ley Line that leads to the Golem HP (west side) but it can be bypassed with Lean Gliding or an Experimental Rifle.
2. Auric Basin also has a Ley Line that leads to the Quarry although this can be bypassed with Wallows.
3. Auric Basin has a jumping puzzle that uses Ley Lines near the Golem HP.
4. Tangled Depths has Ley Lines all over in the main chamber and is required for the Longest Glide achievement that passes there.
5. Tangled Depths Nuhoch Lane has a mastery point that requires Ley Lines.
6. Dragon’s Stand near the Southern Barbed Gate has a POI that I think requires Ley Line Gliding.
7. Ley Lines can be useful during the Mouth of Mordremoth fight.

I know there’s a couple more spots in Dragon’s Stand but I can’t rememebr the exact locations.

Cool, I’ve done all of those now… is there any other ones?

Nothing in DS requires ley-line gliding.

Ayrilana.1396:

Nothing in DS requires ley-line gliding.

For map completion you need it for a couple areas (or a mesmer friend). But to play the map, it’s not required of course.

It’s not required for map completion on any map.

List the ones you feel require it and I’ll explain how to do them without it.

The DS point of interest in question can be reached with a hop-glide off the nearby mushroom to a nearby rock you can then glide from to get to the PoI.

I just glide directly to the loop rock formation (ring?) from the mushroom and then hop up to the platform behind it to get the PoI. Likely requires lean technique. The way you described is how I think I first got it.

Is there a way to the champ spider without leyline gliding? I haven’t really paid attention to what I was doing in DS because of that stupid timer.

When you take the central route for the meta, there’s a mushroom to the east of the first camp. If you take it, it will put you to the south of that HP. You can then hop onto a ledge and use a leap skill (or a consumable) to hop up there.

Edit: Here’s a link showing how to do it. You can also supposedly glide to it from somewhere as well.
