Guild Wars 2

My friend already reported this bug in the game, but I wanted to post here as well just in case. For the Mad Cache, you have to jump through the Goemm’s Lab jumping puzzle. While this is an aggravating jump puzzle (not complaining about that), it’s made more aggravating by the fact that randomly, in pretty much any place on the map, there’s a chance you will fall through instead of falling and respawning at the portal. Not sure if this is a new bug or an old one, but I couldn’t find it on the forums using the search box.

What happens is you fall off any of the platforms, the Metrica Province screen appears, you see yourself standing in front of the portal into the puzzle, the Metrica Province screen appears again, and suddenly you’re falling through the air. When I fell through, I landed in the vicinity of the Luminates Plant, but it may be random depending on where you fall on the puzzle. You don’t die, which is nice, but you pretty much have to start the puzzle over from scratch, which is really discouraging.

Not sure why this happens, but it really needs fixed, or at least some way to recognize that you were at the entrance and easy way to get back in.

It is a bug. YOu fall back at the start of the puzzle which is expected, from there it would normally ask you which station to teleport to. Instead of that you begin falling again and land at the location below where you were on the puzzle. It thus boots you out of the puzzle and as the OP states you have to start from scratch, very annoying when you’re past the first station.

I’ve ended up on the hills near the Luminates Plant and got to run around places I shouldn’t have had access to. I also landed on the roof of the inquest base, which was a VERY COOL VIEW, but really annoying also xD.

I’m thinking it has something to do with the puzzle not being able to handle remembering that many people’s places or something odd? So it then boots us out?

This bug usually kills me. I never had it let me live in an unreachable or reachable spot.

I gave up on this puzzle anyways as its too kitten my low end laptop.

Same here… me and my girlfriend cannot complete this. We need to get to the end of the Sky Pirate’s Achievement… anyone know if they are fixing this before the end of the event? Or rewarding it free to everyone?

I’m getting this issue also, fell through 3 times in what felt like an hour or so. If it happens again, I’m giving up for the night…

p.s. I actually had to use google to find this thread … the search tool needs work.

edit: make that 4 times

I sometimes get it and sometimes don’t. A friend pointed out that one of the cause might have to do with continuing to hold the forward movement key after missing a jump. Releasing any movement as soon as I realized I missed a jump seems to help.

Alternatively … a mesmer who is good at jumping puzzles is your bestest friend.
