    What, you don't like standing on thin air when you jump to a spot? I go up that tower in Kugane at LEAST once a week, sometimes more just because I'm bored. I always land/stand on the platforms so that my character is on thin air to help show people where they can jump to.

    As I said above the correct way to implement this in dungeons is bonus chests involved in jump down puzzles, they prevent people from getting frustrated and discouraging people from trying again after they fail.

    They could even make it a little harder than the example I gave. Add moving platforms.

    Whether or not I or anyone else likes the fact of that does not change the entirely objective and completely observable fact the the clipping as awful. It's not a subjective call, the ability to stand in thin air like that is a very direct example of bad clipping as a matter of coding limitations.

    Oh, I know the clipping is bad. I'm all for adding jump puzzles for things like sightseeing log, or to a place that normally you would need flying to get to(locations in Yanxia and Ruby Sea come to mind), would be awesome since not everyone wants to do the sightseeing(especially from ARR since it relied on a lot of factors to complete some)
