I think we all know the one I'm talking about. The very interesting Point of Interest in the Iron Marches. I was recently looking for cool unique places and came across the idea of re-visiting Bria's Manor and exploring the inside. Sadly, I can't seem to find a way thorough the doors.
Have any of you been on the inside? I know it is (or was) possible. And I would like to know the specific details on how to get in. Most other forum posts say it's during the event that spawns with Bria, however when I was doing the event, I would occasionally look at the back door and I could not enter it.
My biggest question was, "Is the ability to enter the house been patched? If so why?"
Any insight on how to enter the house would be great! Or at least I can find out what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks!

Hello!
Wow!!!
I looked about it and I am just finishing to see a video about because you say it.
Amazing! Just amazing!
I didn't know you was/are able to go in.
More you live, more you learn.
Back to the point. No, as you can see, I don't know. If this helps, in that (one and a half years old) video, some viewer posted you can't go in now ( said 11 month ago).
Have fun and good luck.
P.S. If I don't forget, I think I should visited Bria too.
As far as I know it's not possible to get inside because there's an invisible wall across the entrance and no other ways in. I think it used to be possible, if you timed it just right, but it was fixed quite a while ago.
"You can run like a river, Till you end up in the sea,
And you run till night is black, And keep on going in your dreams,
And you know all the long while, It's the journey that you seek,
It's the miles of moving forward, With the wind beneath your wings."
Way back in the day, you used to be able to just walk in. No invisible walls. I am sure there is a reason they blocked it off, but yeah, nothing special in there. Just a building.
It took me ~ 5 minutes to figure out a way inside.
I removed the step-by-step guide, they do not like exploit guides on their own board.
Note: The groundfloor is locked. That is the area around the door and up north inside the building. Step anywhere and you get instantly moved out. That was the fix?
The interior of the house is nicely done, very interesting decoration.
I have not found the ultimate world destroying vigil-laser under the carpet - yet. I assume you have your reasons to keep players out of the building.
If you set your camera collision to the max, you can move around outside and "clip" into the house with your camera FOV to see most of it.
I've never been into map breaking/void jumping so I don't know if it can be done on that map but that might also get you in.
So from what everyone is saying, the classic way of getting into the house has been closed off for at least a year, maybe more?
Yes. They have a funny idea of content that should not be seen by the community. A lot of places that are beautifully mapped, tons of hours of work gone to waste. But well, if it is an official decision, we gonna live with it.
Interesting - never occurred to me you could get inside. I'll take a look using the camera manipulation suggested above.
You can get in today. During the event chain around it you have to wait for the door to open for a very limited time in between dialogue stuff. You'll miss out fighting Bria and other bits to be able to explore inside. Going past the bottom of the stairs does put you outside, but you can go upstairs.
Yet another waste of interesting places to visit. Why would you block cool places off, ANet?
Why design the interior at all if people can't enjoy the ambiente?

Void jumping doesn’t work anymore. Now if you log out out of bounds you just stay there.
With mounts there’s still a pretty easy way to break out though. I found a few awesome places in Cursed Shore with some great views.
Yeah the only way is doing the log out/log in trick in the corner of an upper floor balcony doorway. And that really breaks at least imo immersion on getting in.
Hello!
Thank you Ashantara. That was the video I saw. It put a context about Bria, those poor cubs and the whole event.
Have fun and good luck.
go to the upstairs balcony by the tree,
press against the door,
log out,
log in,
congrats
ANet has a track record of shutting off interesting areas to glitch into although there was never anything gained from going there except enjoyment for those who love to find/enter such places
There are several areas I could get into long ago but cannot enter anymore because of "fixes" that noone really needed.
The likely reason for adding this "kick the character out" area on the lower floor was maybe a few kitten players who entered the house and had the door close behind them. Instead of just waypointing out, they may have contacted support for being stuck. Just a speculation
Even though, spelling out the way to enter in such detail may not be the best idea if you don't want this to be "fixed" too. It was already perfectly possible for people to figure it out on their own with the hints of Alimar.8760 three posts before this.
YouTube “L2villagejester”.
People using belittling wording like whining/qqing" are not taken seriously by me
Same for people posting only to tell others not to post (“deal with it”-posts)
they love fixing glitches like that, i knew a way under LA until some idiot said how on the forum, 2 weeks later and it's fixed.......
so for anyone knowing a glitch like that, NEVER EVER say how and where on the forum.
to the very far west?
