I totally agree with you! I had always wished that there would be a faster paced jumping puzzle, and i’m still dreaming of a dungeon boss where you have to do some fast paced platforming. The added exotic reward at the end was nice, since i wasn’t expecting it because no other jumping puzzle gives exotic. (There might be a chance for one, but i haven’t seen one so far.) I’m looking forward to ArenaNet’s future jumping puzzles!
The problem is with people staring at their character models, when they should be “feeling” their hitboxes. Once you manage to do this you don’t even really need to see your character, i bet i could do the puzzle without having a character model(Sure, it would be harder.) at all since i know how big it is and that it is always at the center of my screen.
Done it more than 5 times on my Asura guardian to show friends the route. Also done it on my Human Mesmer, Asura engineer and Human elementalist. It was tough at start but after i got through it the first time it feels easy now.
There seems to be a chest in the 3rd image! I hope this is a new place we can visit during one of the four acts mentioned.
Just logged in too and i’m so upset! I have played 700ish hours as a greatsword guardian (200h Beta 500h Live) and now they decide to change the order of the skills? Just no.
I would love to see 1920×1080 version of this!
Its not an exploit and it isnt tht easy to do.
Its buggy in how it works and in PVE it is almost useless since it relies on the enemy to not be attacking you since unless you are lucky it will take about 3 seconds for it to revive you. It works best 1v1 but fighting a group its much less potent.
If you see them pop it just keep attacking and dont try to finish and u will most likly negate the effect.If u manage to get the timing perfect u could maybe call it cheap but it is no more an exploit than thiefs using latency and skills to practically permastealth, in which case it isnt really cheap just a good use of skills.
When i fought the engineer he got back up instantly i had not time to attack him again with my axe. (Necromancer)
I’m not sure if i made my self clear in the first message but my question is only this: Is this intended or is this exploiting a bug in an (broken?)ability? This should not be discussion of if it’s fair to have that spell there or not.
Okay then, it was brought up during beta, the devs stated that it was a good high skill-ceiling use of the ability and allowable. It is not a bug or exploit. Whether they always intended for it to work that way or players discovered this additional use is unknown, but either way, it is in the game by design, they could have changed it and chose not to.
Can you find source for this? I’d like to read it. I do agree that it’s quite a nice trick just doesn’t really seem intended and i don’t want my account to be banned for doing it. Maybe it indeed is a bug but they just decided to keep it in there.
My quote button seems to be broken. (Will edit quotes in when it starts working again.)

“If you decide to be a grammar nazi and condescend to people giving you answers you’d better, at least, know the proper spelling of the words you’re being pedantic about”
Sorry i did not mean to be a grammar nazi i just honestly asked if he meant to say “slow” and i just didn’t understand what he was trying to say to me. “t” is in my opinion far away from “w” so it’s hard to typo it.

“And given our skillset and pvp tools, elixir R is a very valuable slot to give up indeed for what it does, and usually means you have to either narrow your kits (vertical drop in survivability or cc, or both), or give up condition removal (and be stomped by half the professions out there as we’re already very weak against conditions/kiting).”
I’m not saying that engineers are OP because of this, i’m just asking if it is intended or not since in my opinion the tool tip does not imply that you could revive yourself with it.

"Actually the Ele can self revive if you cast it in the fire attunemet. "
Ahh sorry i forgot that!

It’s not a trick. It’s how the elixer is meant to be used. Someone seems a bit butt-hurt!
Was waiting for an answer just as mature as this.
Its a really hard skill to use due to the timing and the fact that you are giving up a valuable skill slow.
Yes, but why aren’t spells like Necromancers Signet of undeath, Guardians Revive signet, Mesmers revive spell or Elementalists revive spell(these for example) allowed to have a chance to revive yourself? They too are giving a “valueable” skill slot (i’m assuming you meant to say that) for that spell.
Yeah, it creates a field AoE that does 6 ticks that give a fallen allie 20% of their total health each tick. Some folks simply use it to their advantage to toss it just before they die. It has to be tossed at the right time in the right location.
Ahh yes sorry, i forgot to mention that it is the THROW “part” of the skill. Thanks for pointing that out.
I just played a match of tPvP and i had 1v1 moment with an engineer, when he went down he got back up in an instant. Later i asked him how did he get up and he said that if you throw one of your elixirs just before going down it will also revive your self.
Right after the tournament i logged on my engineer to find the elixir and it seems to be Elixir R.
Now i’d like to ask if this is an exploit or just “good playing” since i imagine it will be quite hard to pull off, but if you do manage to do it it’s quite OP and just makes the trick be a giant iWin trick which would mean that you should always CC an engineer before getting them in to a downed state or you’d be just healing them.
