WvWvW Jumping puzzle bugs [Merged]
Here’s my theory: depending on the state of your vault door before the patch that broke them (open/closed) you can teleport through. There’s a spot in the lower right side of the door where you can see into the chest room. If you have line of sight you can blink, shadow step, etc. through (LoS = the last position of the door was OPEN.)
Exploit? No. This is not used as an advantage. We are supposed to have access to this anyway. Merely a quick-fix solution to an error.
Glitch? Don’t think so. Mechanics of teleport using Line of Sight are working correctly.
Portal also disregards the vault door.
I bet 100g right here that Anet locked it on purpose. It’s not broken.
6 pieces of siege can cost up to 6 gold if you get lucky. By doing puzzles you don’t spend money. No gold sink. No gold sink = Gems getting cheaper.
C’mon Anet, 10 days to fix a DOOR, srsly? what kind of programmers do you guys have?
You guys are doing it wrong !
When you got the keys,you should go to the door and say “Open Sessame” !
P.S. Sorry couldn’t resist more…out of this frustration -.-
WvW – Structure Upgrade Re-Work idea!
WvW – Art of War Guild Buffs & Keep Claiming Re-Work idea!
Most aggravating thing is that there have been 2 new patches rolled out since this is bugged and no fix or comment about it…
Seriously the most annoying thing ever! I can’t get this Please fix this, 10 days…….
Thanks for the reports! We’re aware of this issue and working towards a fix.
^ Why do people say there’s been no response to this when clearly there has been?
Perhaps the string of faulty coding isn’t inside the door itself, but is instead located in a different part – Like how certain skill point challenges might have certain strings of code the same, making them all bugged if one of them gets bugged (As was seen in the past).
In the mean time, go and do the Obsidian Sanctum jumping puzzle in the Eternal Battlegrounds =) It’s more fun anyhoo.

Better cough up that 100g. Why on earth would they lock the door for the Borderlands but leave the Eternal Battlegrounds open? You can easily get more from the one EB chest than all three BL put together.
As for this bug still going on: WTF indeed. I’m tired of seeing “New Build Available” then a small note saying it was just “general maintenance” and nothing was updated. Seriously, what are you all doing? Apparently fixing bugs are not maintenance.
This problem is getting a bit ridiculous if you ask me..
I think that is no bug. This is such a huge issue that GW2 would have fixed it a long time ago. Its an EASY fix! They are probably taking away jumping puzzles so that people can not farm 8 pieces of siege each day. The economy is spiraling out of control much, much faster than anyone anticipated. They are looking for all avenues to take money back out.
lol after posting i looked up… glad to know people are seeing the problem for what it is————————
This bug is still in effect. Just a reminder anet. Since this bug started there has been 2 patches and 2 new builds in wvw.
[FTF]Danke Bitte
still broken. Just tried after reset. Server: whiteside ridge
still broken…
Broken broken broken.
So 2 matchup resets and 2 new patches this door is still broken
push push push push
Please, do not fix doors, cause you gonna screw 2 other things in game, obviously.
Still bugged on Ehmry.
[FTF]Danke Bitte
Takes 12+ days fix a vault door..? I don’t believe there’s anything that needs to be “fixed” anymore. It seems more like the content was disabled for shady purposes.
The delay on how long this is taking to fix is sending a clear message to players. After 2 patches and not a single word on the subject, it is obvious that they dev’s intend for the doors to not work. This is a huge bug severly affecting peoples income of badges and seige weaponry, but they have neglected to even comment on the matter. It seems that they would rather you buy the rewards through Gem→ gold conversion instead of being able to farm all 4 jumping puzzles. I would be able to understand if they couldnt fix the bug by now if they had commented on the situation, but the lack of replies from anet leaves a shady haze lurking over this issue.
Yeah this is pretty dumb on their part, i am probably gonna leave the game. I dont want to deal with a game that doesnt fix things simply to slow down progress to introduce new content before they lose everyone. Id rather play a kitteny game with good feedback and results. GG
still broke and i want the achievement
Desolation still has the issue most of you are seeing with a door not opening regardless of who tries to open it. I would hope to see this looked at soon as i’m just amassing keys for no purpose right now. Thanks
Also after being in eb for say ten mins holding off bases ect ect.
Then goto the jp for the badges and stuff,i get stuck on the loading screen.
yet if i enter eb and goto the jp straight away its ok.
plz fix this.
its no fun waiting for hours to get in eb,then get stuck on jp loading screen.
I hope this will be sorted out in the upcoming patch. Hopefully!
:)
Still an issue, so lets keep this on the front page maybe we’ll get another update!
Still broken. Remember to keep thread clean else it’ll give them excuse to close it
ANet response is appreciated.
BUMP. FIX THIS BUG!!!!
Dunno whats worse. That they perpetually forget this bug exists, or that they are too incompetent to fix it.
Remove the door.
What purpose does it serve? The chest can’t be opened without both halves of the key. The door literally does nothing aside from apparently bugging out and locking permanently. Well i guess its also good for being big and circularly……
i actually start to believe the ppl that say that the door was locked on purpose by arenanet. ANd i am starting to get highly disappointed by the chickenly way they avoid to say anything about it
Same here. Piken Square borederlands.
Sooo.. still broken eh?
Just an update, still broken.
[FTF]Danke Bitte
yep, still broken.
pretty annoying doing the whole puzzle for nothing. apparently its been broken for over a week…
lol “broken”, nope. There’s no way even a single 3rd rate programmer wouldn’t be able to fix whatever caused this. It’s definitely disabled on purpose, probably because someone found an exploit and they’re still not sure how to reproduce/fix it or something.
best statistical loot in the game. We want everyone on equal power base.”
Same issue with Mistwrought Vault My first time getting the keys by myself and they are useless whats the deal?
I just confirmed that the Vault worked for me on Darkhaven! Thanks Anet!
This bug is fixed in all 3 borderlands. Thank you anet.
[FTF]Danke Bitte
Fixed in Dragonbrand too.

fix this or get rid of the chests that give the keys as they serve no purpsose
I thought the bug was fixed already.
@ Picklock on what server are you on ?
Just tried Emerald Sanctum, no achievement acquired after acquiring both key parts, unlocking door and chest.
Server: Darkhaven (fb.com/groups/guildwars2darkhaven)

Well, it should have broken recently, I’ve done all JPs in WvW this weekend without any problems.
But it’s really annoying that the fix is taking so long… I was lucky that I made it in time.
I am still having problems getting the JP achievements, I have looted the chest and got both key part.
Why not just remove them they have nothing to do with WvW at all….
Am also not getting emerald leaper in the mists and I just did every jumping puzzle twice now
Did anybody mentions the green waterfall yet?
I did the Sapphire jumping puzzle today and didn’t get the achievement. I did it on the Far Shiverpeaks borderlands.
Borlis Pass Home Borderland Emerald Jumper in the Mists bugged on me. All of the chests are open in all of the borderlands. I got the loot from my home BL (green) but not the achievement. Chest is open yet I still have the keys. Would love for this to be fixed before the end of the WvW season to get the achievement for completion! Thanks in advance :-(
