Yuyuske.7182 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Long ago, not long after GW2 was first released, I switched jump to V and dodge to Space, because it feels more natural to me. (After all, I want the thing that keeps me alive to be the big, easy-to-smash key at the bottom of the keyboard!) And, until now, that has served me well.Unfortunately, I started on the gryphon mount quest...and my borrowed gryphon wasn't jumping. All of my other mounts jumped when I hit V to jump; gryphon didn't do jack. I tried jumping off a cliff to see if maybe you had to be in midair for it to jump; maybe, since gryphons are flying mounts, they work kinda like gliders. Nope, he just plumeted to the ground as I smashed the V key in vain. I thought that maybe you had to unlock the ability to jump / fly with mastery points, like the other mounts' improved leaps...but then I came upon an egg that required me to fly there on a borrowed gryphon.I checked my keymaps; V is listed as Action 1 for all of my other mounts. As I said, they jump just fine.Finally, I remembered that, long ago, I swapped my jump and dodge keys, so I switched them back...and now the borrowed gryphon flew.All borrowed gryphons have had this issue for me: regardless of time, regardless of zone. I have yet to complete the quest so I don't know if the gryphon mount proper will have this issue or not.I'd just leave them switched, but I've been working with space as dodge and V as jump for nearly 5 years now. And I can't be the only person in the game who's remapped their jump key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yuyuske.7182 Posted October 3, 2017 Author Share Posted October 3, 2017 Completed the quest, and the proper mount is having the same problem.Not only that, but now they're not jumping / flying even when I remap the keys back to their original position. I have to click on the endurance bar to get them to jump or fly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronan.9518 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Wall of text incoming, probably some mistakes since english isn' my first language.The mount ability and 1 jump are not the same button, but somehow connected.Tldr.: Griffon (bottom of the list) is different than the other mounts in that regard.Edit 1:Since you seem to have both the jump action and the mount ability 1 action binded to the same key, (V) you probably have no "jump" key while mounted.Does the problem remain if you rebind mount ability 1 to another key than your jump?Edit 2:Testet it, bound jump to V and Dodge to Space. Let mount ability 1 remain on V. -> Griffon didn't jump.Rebound mount ability 1 to Shift + V (just for the sake of beeing something different), Griffon did jump while using V.I'll go trough each mount seperately.RaptorIf you use mount ability 1 you make a long jump forward.If you use jump, you simply jump on point.If you use Jump + movement forward ( while you have at least 25% endurance) you make a long jump forward.(Here it seems jump + movement forward (+ enough endurance) seems to redirects to mount ability 1)SpringerIf you use mount ability 1 you channel for a (depending on channel time) high jump.If you jump you channel for a (depending on channel time) high jump.If you move forward + jump you simply jump.(Here it seems jump redirects to mount ability 1 if you don't move forwards (or backwards).)SkimmerIf you use mount ability 1 you hover.If you jump you hover.Movement keys just add a movement direction to the hovering process.(Here it seems the jump redirects to mount ability 1, regardless of further condition)JackalIf you use mount ability 1 you teleport forwardsIf you jump you simply jump (on point).If you jump while not touching the ground (while you have at least 33% endurance) you teleport forward.(Here it seems jump redirects to mount ability one if you are not touching the ground (and have enough endurance).)WarclawIf you use mount ability 1 you make an (evade) jump forward.If you use jump, you simply jump on point.If you use Jump + movement forward you make an (evade) jump forward.(Here it seems jump + movement forward seems to redirects to mount ability 1)BeetleIf you use mount ability 1 you get a speed boost.If you use jump, you simply jump on point.If you move forward + jump with full endurance you get a speed boost.If you move forward + jump with not full endurance you make a barely noticeable jump.(Here it seems jump + movement forward + full endurance redirects to mount ability 1)The griffon is different since it seems to have two "versions".GriffonOn ground.If you use mount ability 1 nothing happes.If you jump you simply jump.Movement keys just add a movement direction to the jump.(Jump in no case redirects to mount ability 1)GriffonWhile not on the ground (/flying/jumping).If you use mount ability 1 you dive downIf you jump (while you have at least 66% endurance) you flap with you wings to gain some height.(Jump never redirects to mount ability 1, it has a complete different function).
