Cipisek.2147 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I always loved jumping puzzles and I know its not everyones cup of tea, however I really wish we didnt move away from them so drastically, I dont think we got any new JPs in LW4 and PoF with the exception of maybe the dwarven ruin thats not exactly a JP but kinda resembles it. Atleast one JP per map would be lovely and I really hope we get something like that. 14 4 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farohna.6247 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Not a huge fan of jumping puzzles, however I see that as a reasonable and polite request. Actually had fun doing the Siren's Landing one last night, wasn't ridiculously difficult, checkpoints were easy enough, and fun view at the top. And I'm sure they will arrive with EoD. I prefer they not be required achievements though for masteries....ugh. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuRkEr.9462 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I enjoy tackling jumping puzzles for the first time for an achievement. I wouldn't want it to be a daily thing though. With the verticality they mentioned in EoD I would guess there is going to be a couple new ones. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultramex.1506 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 (edited) I agree on more JPs, though I would advice against requiring JP for map completion (Khan-Ur's Gauntlet), we don't need more complaints on this thread.

Yeah precisely that, make JPs something extra not mandatory. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aodlop.1907 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I kind of wish each expansion had an Expansion JP cosmetic set. Like, 6 JP scattered across the expansion map, each granting a unique piece of armor, and completing them all grants you the full set. Maybe a neat title too. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaint.7461 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 i so much wish that we had / have more jp's than we currently have, the first 100% achievement goal i ever had and completed 100% as the first was jp's, it was such gud times but memories now, because there is no bigger purpose or goal for doing them again when all achieves are unlocked already.

I believe the person who made these was the same guy as did Super Adventure Box, and he left ANet a few years ago? I think we’re reasonably safe in assuming they won’t make any more jumping puzzles that are impossible without either a guide or many frustrating hours of guesswork trying to find the path from lack of clues. They must know… 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draconis was well made but just sucked because it was so dull. It was also literally the only reason for the silly episode mastery gimmick to exist... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azure Prower.8701 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 (edited) You won't be getting more of the jumping puzzles you know and love. Because the creator of them has left Arena net.

Savoren.3910 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I agree, I'd love to have more jumping puzzles in EoD. I've always enjoyed doing jumping puzzles (with Not So Secret being the only exception), more of them are always welcome. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuchslein.8639 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Yes pls. I love JP's. I also like harder ones where you can get really angry if you need forever at the beginning to get into it. Love something like that ><. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kharmin.7683 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 I don't like JPs but if others like them then I have no objection so long as they are not required for content or map completion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danikat.8537 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 I hope we get some jumping puzzles, mini-dungeons or other types of puzzles in EoD. I don't really mind what they're called because the distinction has always seemed pretty arbitrary to me. Some jumping puzzles don't involve much jumping and are mainly about figuring out where to go and how to get there (Professor Portmatt's Lab is entirely underwater so there's no jumping at all) and some mini-dungeons or puzzles involve a lot of jumping (Vexa's Lab and the Hidden Tower in Bjora Marches for example). Of course I assume they'll be optional like the existing puzzles, but one of the things I really like about this game is you never know what you might find and an area of the map which at first doesn't appear to have anything in it might be the entrance to a puzzle of some sort. I really enjoy finding them and solving them, and seeing where else it might lead. 15 hours ago, Azure Prower.8701 said: You won't be getting more of the jumping puzzles you know and love. Because the creator of them has left Arena net. ( https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Joshua_Foreman ). We've had at least one more jumping puzzle since then: in Grothmar Valley. There's also been things like the dwarven catacombs in Thunderheard Keep and the Hidden Tower puzzle in Bjora Marches which aren't called jumping puzzles but have a lot in common with them (including having to figure out where to go and having to jump between platforms to get there). Josh Foreman might have been the person who first came up with the idea for jumping puzzles and one of the main people to develop them but I doubt he single-handedly designed and created every single puzzle in the game and obviously other people at Anet are capable of continuing the practice. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuks.8241 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 I don't think we are done with JPs. We got the Grothmar Valley one which is a good one. Bjora doesn't have JPs but the light puzzles have some jumping elements. So really no reason to think we are done with them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's A-Net, if there are new JPs they will make them a requirement for the related meta achievement and potentially several item collections. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faridah.8431 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 (edited) JP's are fun! Doesn't mean I am good at them, but I do enjoy them. The only exception to that was the god awful Chalice of Tears which was aptly named and sadistically required for that achievement. I hope they move away from requiring them for much. I like how normal JP's were just their own achievements. Edited August 5, 2021 by Faridah.8431 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
