Guild Wars 2

Mother of god, the farshore vista puzzle for the dead mans chest was hard! tip = if it's pitch dark, turn up full screen gamma to maximum in options!

haha just dove and did some tricks in the air, Lion arch appears to have quite a bit of fun events if one explores the place

I watched 3 or 4 people falling repeatedly and discussing in /s and /m what to do. Then I equipped my torch offhand and jumped past them all.

Thankfully I also remembered not to be too much of a tool and made a bonfire fo them to follow. That one was by far the most fun jumping puzzle I've encountered so far. (Have done 1 in first Charr area, 2 or 3 in 2nd Charr area (plateau) and two in Lion's Arch (pirate one and troll one)).

The one in the first Charr area is a complete son-of-a-swear-word. It has insta-kill traps. I broke all my gear working out the timings of the fire part (then took it off... shh).

I keep planning to have a play with that. Does it respond if you get a good combo in any way? (NPC messages or whatnot?)

Yeah I tried to use aoe spells but only had greatsword and scepter and nothing else so really had nothing to light up the way, I was actually stuck at the bottom unable to move, as I couldn't see anything, if it wasn't

As for diving, I did 2 tricks mid air and nothing happened, perhaps if you can pull off some combination you'd get achievement but im not sure.
 
That dead mans chest dark room was funny. I was like 'wow they really thought about this one' Basically I could see other players and when one looked to be hovering I jumped to where they were and got there with trial and error. Then my gf goes thru the next day and I see her turn up brightness and just peg it through the room in 1 minute when it took me 30 lol.
 
Have to say some of the scenery in the game is amazing. I know people are spoilt by DX11 and such but imo the game looks great. Few screens of my journy;
