Get rid of jumping puzzle in Kugane

[Laerune]

Wouldnt a better suggestion be to add a teleport crystal at the top and those that climbed there can unlock a teleport location. This would reward players, instead of removing content.

Then why did you do it? It sounds to me like you're complaining about something just for the sake of complaining. You don't have to do it, so why would you do it just to complain? I haven't even done the jump puzzles because they don't appeal to me, funny how that works.

Is this like the Twilight Zone or something?

It is possible to enjoy a certain type of content while also pointing out glaring flaws that it has.

But then you would still get a lot of people complaining that they can't access that crystal because they can't make the jumps.

Nah keep it in. It took me a lot of time to get to those bath tubs and I fealt like a total boss. My greatest accomplishment as a ninja. Do no remove it. Or else....

I tried for roughly 3 hours a few weeks ago and got almost to the top, but kept failing at one spot. I'll probably never be able to get to the top and that sucks but it is what it is lol Keep it in for the people who can do it and enjoy doing it.

Then why did you do it?

Because completing the sightseeing log is locked behind it, so getting up there and on the lamppost wasn's something completely optional/ignorable for me like the Rhalgr's reach or Shirogane lighthouse one

I finally gave up as they don't offer anything of worth and I have other ways to keep busy. If the painting rewards were in color I might be will to try again but for sepia meh. I wouldn't mind more jumping puzzles if SE would fix the poor jumping controls and lag effect but until they do I'd rather they spend their time fixing the game than adding new puzzles.

Please don't! I am still trying to do it. In fact, I'm making another attempt right now. But I will say, I would like the hitboxes and stuff to be adjusted and fixed! Some are just so big they are larger then the surface you're standing on. Like so!



And others create more hazards. I hate this spot, I hate it with a passion, I have overblown my jump or my controls just sent me running off the edge so many times at this spot and had to start all over again...



So if anything, SE just needs to make some adjustments to the tower. Most of it is doable, but there are parts that are just super stressful not due to challenge but crappy hitboxes.

Agreed with the OP entirely jump puzzles belong in platformer games which actually have tight jumping controls. the jumping controls in FFXIV suck badly and whoever thought it was a good idea to put jump puzzles in this game should probably be fired or at least reprimanded.

Funny. I had no issues doing it after an hour or so. Perhaps you should, I dunno, practice instead of whining. I really hate this attitude people have lately. "I can't do something or it shouldn't be in the game!!!!!!" How dare you have to practice in lieu of having everything handed to you.

I would really love the option to not see the sightseeing points, or selected sightseeing points. I don’t mind them being there for people that enjoy them, but I don’t like the visual clutter.
