GW2 Jumping Puzzles
FYI, there are jumping puzzles all throughout Guild Wars2 . They all give you some form of loot.
Here's one from Eternal Battlegrounds. It gives out some Blueprints for seige weapons. I picked this video because this guy sounds so cool and probably gets laid all the time.
I'm Rodney Dangerfield. I get no respect. No respect at all.

LOL, sorry about that.
I did the puzzle in Sharkmaw Caverns the other day. The camera angles in that place are not good for a Norn!!
I must say I was impressed by what it was but the loot left a lot to be desired, they should give you something useful to your class not just a completely random drop.
I think the camera angles are shit no matter what class you are. Getting ready to make a leap and all of a sudden looking straight in the air is terrible. I think camera angles are a problem all throughout this game honestly, but it is definitely magnified on these. You think a Norn is bad, I am trying to do some on my second toon now (Charr) and those are by far the worst I have seen. They drop into that stupid all fours run at the worst times which makes it hard to tell where the computer thinks the ledge drop off point is...so much frustration that I gave up with this one.
I've rolled a Charr but am yet to play him. The problem with he Norn is they (like Taurens on WoW) take up 50% of the screen, even on max zoom out.
In general the camera just needs to come back about 4x more. They actually had it even closer in beta weekends but moved it back slightly for launch. It's still not enough imo.
Could not agree more...It is such a small thing but one of the things that drives me nuts more than anything else.
A little footage of our (Lala and mine) Obsidian Sanctum adventure tonight.
Spoilers in the title. ;)

Ha, I fell a lot. It was bad. Except for that last jump, I think I can go through it pretty quickly next time. Hell, I got so good at the torch phase that I could do most of the jumps in complete darkness.
BTW, I managed to hook up with a good group and we did some pretty good damage in WvWvW. If you get in EB, look for Yendrix. He seemed to know his shit pretty good. When and where to attack and when to just leave lost causes. Had a good time. It's a shame our server is so hated because of the "hackers".
