Sightseeing 09 needs a change

Got a bit bored and thought to knock out some sightseeing logs.

My oh my, this one damn log. Doesn't help the other ARR ones are gated behind the first 20. I've been sprinting for hours and miss it every single time. Even extending the Sprint with AST Celestial Opposition to get an extra go of it.

The devs need to put a bookshelf or something somewhere in that room to make this easier to obtain.

Forgive my ignorance, but what does the log call for exactly?

If this is the leather worker one (not at home ATM, can't check), try changing the FPS in game to 15. This I believe is in the main systems tab - just scroll down. That is the only thing that worked for me.

Its the one in the ltw-guild where you need to jump on top of that frame with the hide in it.

I dont think it needs a change though - and here is why: I made it. I, who failed at Super Mario 64, managed to do it eventually. The challenge log is cruel, extremly difficult, almost unfair for some of the spots... but thats making it a real challenge - a challenge, that is infact, doable.

Hang in there, buddy! If I can do it - anyone can!

I've never had trouble getting up there.
I just had trouble finding the right weather xd

Overall I like challenges like these (timed ones via weather are good too!) and advocate for more of these challenges.

I think the most frustrating thing is that it's the hardest log in the whole game and they gate most of the ARR logs behind it.

Lol, that one wasnt the hardest, not by a long shot

The one in Mor Dhona that had the ship hull jump was far harder (especially since it had a really small window). As was the one in the logging grounds.

If it couldn't be done it wouldn't be in game. Its the challenge that makes these interesting, unlike the boring HW/SB ones that don't have any challenge and don't even have little tidbits of info on how to find them. Its literally the same sentence for every single entry......

Personally I like these little platformer challenges Square Enix throws at us. Also I found out about this vista after doing all 5 in Kugane. Compared to Kugane Tower, this one was a piece of cake lol

The only downside is the weather condition.

I've been hearing a lot of cries of "BUG!" and "BROKEN!" and so forth since 4.0, and trying it myself shortly after 4.0, I pulled it off within 10 minutes.

So, I guess what I'm saying is, git gud.

They said they would add more hard to reach ones in SB if there was enough demand, but I haven't seen any thread asking for more so they probably won't add them.

But if any community rep is reading: Yes please, add more like that LTW guild one, just don't add more weather requirements, weather sucks out the fun of sightseeing.

Limiting my framerate to 30 greatly helped with this jump.

I remember when people, myself included, used to jump and climb the walls in Mor Dhona to sit on the ropes up above just for funsies. It's nice they added something official for those who like jump puzzles. As long as they never gate progression content behind a jump puzzles I don't see the problem.

Hoo boy. If that's what you think you should probably just stop with the sightseeing log right now.

Lol... Wait until North Shroud.

This one also sucked, but honestly wasn't as bad for me as the LTW one. Maybe because I knew about the FPS trick at that time. I would, however, still give yourself plenty of time on this one. lol

The LTW one is quite tame in comparison to others in the ARR sightseeing log...

Ya if they are struggling with that one...

My pet peeve sightseeing log was the Central Shroud one in the tree stump camp. That was a pain for me to do.

If you think that one was tough man you got a bad time inc

Just wait until ILG. I still die inside a little every time I need to go to north Shroud
