Well this thread has been an emotional rollercoster of hopes and smashed dreams. I was pretty excited about the ninja trick, but Ivinedra's experience eerily matches my own. Like, 6 hours on a jump that hardly anyone else seems to think is much more difficult than "pretty annoying," puts me pretty squarely back in considering "did something, magically, change with the 4.0 patch?" I'm SMN, so I tried to see if I could get Shadowflare to "stick" on top of that rack, and while this isn't perfect proof, it bugs me that I absolutely cannot. 6+ hours of trying something is not "a pain" it's a frustrating nightmare of wondering about your sanity.

I'd be sorta grateful if someone can confirm it absolutely is still possible, post 4.0.
