Guild Wars 2

Tried to get to Owain’s Refuge the other day and was unable to find a path up the side of that islet, let alone any way to reach the guy collecting Karka eggs for that event. We went completely around that islet looking for a way up, and even went up on the main island but there was no way to cross over. Definitely could NOT jump as it was way too far away.

So my question is this: How on earth are we to get over there to do that egg event and pick up the way point?

Go to the south side of the island where Owain’s Refuge waypoint is. Jump out of the water onto the ship wreck that is really low to the water and then walk / jump to the top of the series of shipwrecks and you will be in the camp and at the waypoint.

I gained access to it by jumping from the main land with a speed boost as i could not find access to it either.

As mentioned above, just climb up across the ships. Why is this under “game bugs” anyway?

I placed it under game bugs because I was under the impression there was a heart or event that was to help build a bridge so we could make a way over to it, but I never saw that pop. Saw the NPC looking for Karka eggs but after collecting a lot of those eggs could not find a way up.

I also explored the possibility of jumping over, but was unable to even with a speed buff…not a good jumper. Then I thought there was perhaps an underwater tunnel or something like that but all I got was chased by the underwater creatures.

I did try to jump up the ship wreck but got caught in the environment for a moment before sliding back down, so figured there was a glass wall there preventing anyone using it.

However, I shall try again. Thanks for the info.

Aha, found it. Apparently my first attempt to climb the wreck was at the wrong spot. Found the correct one this evening and managed to get up to the top without incident.

BTW we swam from the southeast-most way point around to this island with little incident. Swam on top instead of under the water so were not bothered by the denizens of the water there abouts. Definitely watch for the Champion Shark…he showed up shortly after we go to the 2/3 point in the water just south of the island.

Thanks for the tip and appreciate all the help.
