So, I’ve noticed this tactic is still being used by certain servers, even after putting in a few reports of it being an exploit.

How is this even close to being fair play when having several siege, and even just one Ballista set up there can wipe out players before getting off the loading screen? Generally anyone who gets the middle platform is just able to get rolled constantly by siege, whereas the opposite sides can only get hit while standing on the edge.

Siege really don’t belong down in the jumping puzzle apart from griefing people by blocking vision of narrow paths while in the construction site phase, or just sitting up at the entrance camping people with slower loading screens.

Yes, it’s possible to kill them by jumping down and AoE’ing the ledge, but only if they’re close to the edge.

Leave them in and keep it clean or take them out.

Letting guilds pride themselves on griefing players wasn’t part of Anet philosophy I was led to believe.

A warrior, a guardian, and an elementalist walk into an open field…
The Warrior turns to the guardian and says, “Did you hear something?”
Guardian replies, “No, but how’d the elementalist die?”

yup

last night on blackgate we took the entire EB map and saw maybe a total of 6-7 yak’s end players.

go into the jumping puzzle to see 2 arrows carts and 2 ballistas with about 7 yak peeps next to them ready to grief anybody that goes down there.
theyre all dead and siege destroyed, but i bet when i wake up the failure kids will have set up more crap to grief.

Siege in the jumping puzzle just makes it a steam roll you can’t even hit the siege in certain spots it’s pointless. Everyone is just camping the room with the creatures setting the siege at top making it impossible to get up there
