    Meh. I won't lie I was annoyed slightly about the mount thing. Only Because I have a friend who is terrible at jump puzzles. Not that I am any better ( I hate you kugane tower I have yet to climb!)

    So Last year I used my wedding chocobo to get her to the top. I felt bad for being in the way but it was only once I never lingered. I don't have any issues with the self destruct > Rez combo either. Some folks are really bad at the jumping! If I could get rezed to the top of Kugane tower I would in a skinny minute!

    You could also marry someone that is able to climb the tower and use the wedding ring to port to them.

    Isn't the point to challenge yourself? Or at least that's how it seems to me. That being the case it should still be rewarding for you regardless of how others do it. You even get better bragging rights "I did so n so with out any cheats"

    If you mean others may not feel the same sense of reward as you did well..respectfully that is not for you to deiced.

    I felt the no mount thing was more to stop people being from being obnoxious and sitting on the steps with a giant mount and less about cheating.

    Yes, the point is to challenge yourself, but it feels way less rewarding for struggling non-cheaters to get to the top when they get passed/accompanied by a bunch of Self Destructing Blue Mages.

    And the "no mount thing" was indeed made to prevent griefing. Never claimed anything else.

    Climbing Kugane tower and doing the light jump at the end was the reception at my EB ceremony.

    We both made it to the top without needing it and only needed 3 combined uses for the jump off. Was enjoyable.
