I’m going to give this thread a bump. Here are my thoughts on this diving location:
1) It makes no sense to have a diving achievement in a JP where the diving achievement is significantly harder than the JP itself. This breaks the mold compared to almost all the other diving locations in or near a JP. The only exception I can think of is Shattered Ice Floe, which is not exactly the hardest of JPs, and even then – it’s at the end of the JP, not harder than the JP itself.
2) I understand that some people like a challenge, but there’s a JP category for them. I fail to see how a casual player is supposed to get this. (Whereas all the other diving locations seem fine in terms of difficulty).
3) There is a significant portion of the community who dislike the JPs with a passion, (I’m not one of them). To force them to go through this for an entirely unrelated category is mind-boggling to me.
Since there is no diving location that is even remotely close to this one in terms of difficulty, it just seems unfair to those who either can’t or won’t do JPs to foist this upon them. If you want to have 38 diving locations, then at the very least swap this one for the Best Dive Ever because:
1) While there is some jumping to be done, at least it’s reasonably forgiving.
2) It’s the best dive ever.
Thank you for your time,

I’d like to have an option to automatically swap into you town clothes when you enter LA or any of the other capitals.
The glaring issue with free transfers and WvW is that it makes the ranking system not work. If the population is not reasonably stable, then the ranking does not apply from week to week.
I’m convinced the WvW will work splendidly for most servers, regardless of absolute value in the ranking, once the transfers are disabled. As it is, there’s just too much variance in population from week to week to make the ratings terribly relevant, and good match-ups will be difficult to get.
