Ouija.1684 Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 In order to get the skyscale, do you have to do a jumping puzzle?I seriously hope not because I am quite possibly the world’s WORST puzzle jumper — I’ve been playing GW2 for 6+ years and have only just barely managed to complete one because I avoid them like the plague. UPDATE: Instead of doing any JPs, I was able to use Extra-Pungent Skyscale Treats — which can be bought off the TP — and got my skyscale during Memorial Day weekend. All’s well that ends well!

Adrianna.3092 Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 yes... you have to do several in fact... or have a mesmer or friend do it then portal you there/use friend teleport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ouija.1684 Posted May 16, 2019 Author Share Posted May 16, 2019 Several? On, nooo ... which ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrianna.3092 Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 you have to do the one at mount maelstrom.. a small jumping puzzle on the ascalonian wall and you have to basically almost fully finish the dwelve or whatever it is... that snow place in dessert highland... you gotta basically clear that which involves jumping puzzles.

Adrianna.3092 Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 just do what i did... there are tons of people doing it so just ask someone who already did it to portal you.. or use a teleport to friend which you should have in abundance by now.

Ouija.1684 Posted May 19, 2019 Author Share Posted May 19, 2019 Guess what? I’m officially undoomed! Various fabulous people ported me where I needed to go, proving that the GW2 community is the best ever. You guys rock! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KazukoHimura.2314 Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 I may be late to the party on this subject, but the one on the Ascalonian wall can be done with a Springer. The other one there's often people porting, since besides being needed for the Skyscale, some Legendary stuff requires access to that JP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rukario.1695 Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Collection #4 requires a host of Jump Puzzles needing to be completed, however you can skip them using Pungent Skyscale Treats.The issue here is those treats may skyrocket in Trading Post price as you need one per JP Skip. They cost 1 Charged Quartz each with a minimum of 4g per creation; in addition to other materials required.So... you're either going to have to deal with the JPs, dump in more gold for this Collection, or make Charged Quartz for the next while.

Faaris.8013 Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I'm pretty sure nobody really has to do a single JP for this. There will be lots of mesmer portals and people who advertise that they are at the end and that you can use a teleport to friend. I mean, that was the point, right? Create a demand for teleporting to a friend and sell a rechargable teleport to friend item. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danikat.8537 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Use the Pungent Skyscale Treats - you get 1 for free and can buy or craft more. Each one will auto-complete an objective in the collection.Last time I checked it would cost about 120-150g to complete the whole collection that way (depending on if you use buy orders or buy instantly).

nosleepdemon.1368 Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Wait, hold on. Hold your dragons. OP is afraid of jump puzzles, but wants a mount that is basically made for the jump puzzle minded? Well grats on your mount, I hope it will alleviate your fear of heights and pixel perfect movement... Or it will make things much, much worse :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
