Guild Wars 2

I put it in bugs since I didn’t know it should be put here and I already apologize from my bad English.

I don’t mind jumping puzzles even if they are frustrating but for me there is a difference that he puzzles are frustrating because I am bad at it or the game itself tries to kill me.

I am talking about the side puzzle you need to do to get the Golden Lost Badges for. More specifically the one if you go across the Garden Skritt and to the right there is a rope.

Jumping on the rope can be a problem already as you can slide off it from the landing and you plummet to your death each time the net doesn’t help. It doesn’t end there though if you do manage to make a footing on the rope and you moving toward the stone wall you character can still fall down because there are bumps on the rope.

As a last point if you do finally reach the end one misstep and you can restart the rope part again.

While the Aetherblade Jumping Puzzle is hard and frustrating the most part it is your own fault you fall down in this case it isn’t. Slowly walking down a rope and suddenly falling down isn’t the same as missing a jump because you didn’t aim your character right.

I can’t be the only one that has problems with this.

Experimental Gun let’s you go to the end and complete it in like 20 seconds. Others have done it with leap skills.

Except not every class can leap, fly, portal etc.. this rope is definitely a little buggy imo.

OP – You don’t need to slide down to the rope.. for that one you can go to the end of the boat and you will see a narrow ledge you can walk onto.. then follow it round to the rope harness and drop onto it.. not terribly difficult to that point.
The fun begins when trying to go up the rope and get to the ledge where its anchored.. I have tried probably 30 times tonight and everytime you just end up sliding no matter how careful you are.. so imo its borked design unless you can use ceetain skills that my ranger doesn’t

Thanks Bloodstealer.5978

I found the ledge you were talking about it make it less frustrating but the rope still is the major problem here for me. I keep trying but still I thought this had to be said so the developers are aware of it. They shouldn’t make it easier just that when you fall down it is your fault and not a bumpy rope.

I am usually good at jumping and getting to hard to get places, but I have to admit I was unable to walk up that rope. It seemed as if no matter how hard I tried to stay on it, I would always slide off a side and fall down.

While I am a patient person and did not really get upset about falling off dozens of times, I eventually grew tired of paying 1s39c ever 30 seconds, so I ended up taking a portal to the badge and give up on trying to cross that rope.
