Guild Wars 2

I’m doing jumping puzzles around the world and the rewards I get from the chests are scaled to level of the map, rather than mine.
Is this a bug? My guildmate is getting lvl 80-ish drops, so either his MF gear is working, or one of us is bugged…

i believe most, if not all, of the JP in the specific explorable areas give zone-level appropriate rewards. is your guildie doing the exact same puzzles as you while getting max level drops?

the JP’s in Lion’s Arch however give rewards scaled to your own level. and can be done on a daily basis as all JP chests reset every 24 hours (unsure of what time exactly though).

in addition, ANet has stated that MF only effects drops from monster kills, and not chests. : ))

The thing about MF was more of a quip than anything, but yeah, we’re doing the puzzles together and he’s getting 80~ greens and yellows and I’m getting 14~ greens and blues. Although we’ve done a few more, and while I haven’t gotten anything that wasn’t zone-level, he’s been starting to get zone-level stuff too.

How odd…

Some jump puzzles scale to level, others seem to not. At least in my experience. Ones in places like blazeridge or fields of ruin gave me 70+ gear. But the ones in caledon always give me lowbie stuff.
