Favourite spots in the game. (Jumping Challenges)

Ok, I got up there. Thx for the tip.

 

But I encountered a LOT of problems.

The most exceptional of them all was the bad programming of the volcano. Damn it's buggy as hell.

There seems to be a second layer next to what you see on your screen.

(Picture proof):

These are 2 pictures in the EXACT same spot, taken from a different camera angle.

::EDIT:: sigh ilum one has me stumped. I havent tried going from the eastern part of ilum there yet, but from the western i dont see a way up

 

Took me some time to figure it out with the massive amount of 2nd layer restrictions but i got it :) I'll try ilum next

Hi all.

 

I'm a person who in his free time while waiting for warzones and playing likes to jump on top of things.

I like to test the game's boundaries and wonder if they purposely intended this to be done.

As a result of this I've gotten in tons of fun spots people whisper me about how the **** I got there.

 

In light of this, I am not very rich in the game since I mainly pvp and i run Biochem/Synthweaving so dont bring in the cash, but I give away cash sometimes to random passerby's or in general chat on the fleet to challenge people getting up to where I am. Usual amounts are 50-100k.

95% gives up after a minute or two.

 

Some of my favourite spots are:

 

Republic Fleet:

Now I ask of you. Are there any more people like me out there?

If so, do you have some challenges for me? I would LOVE to try them out.

All this jumping has made me a master of datacrons, a master of jumping and positioning. It feels like everythings either too easy, or impossible now..

 

I've got you beat. See the beginning of my epic sorc heals video for my favorite spot in section x :)

My Balmorra adventure :D I might post more from other planets as I come across the cool spots.:cool:

 

I purposely left out the shots of the local map to make it a bit harder for others to follow, didn't want to make it too easy :D

 

So I wondered what was on the other side of this bridge here

 

http://postimage.org/image/6fug4ti3p/

 

I started exploring here

 

http://postimage.org/image/qor0i0w6d/

 

View from the land bridge I spotted from the broken bridge (left side) which led me to believe I could get across :)

Same land bridge looking the other direction

View from the opposite side of the broken bridge (looking back towards first image)

Find this tent and go behind it to get the views that follow

Same spot yet another view, you can see the spire I wanted to get on (middle one)

Balmorra adventure number 2 :D Not a lot of climbing so it's pretty easy to get to.

 

Start for this one is in Upper Sundari just past (if you're leaving the outpost) the 3 guards on the path.

 

http://postimage.org/image/mfvdw9qet/

 

Part way up the rocks (so you can see which way to go)

 

http://postimage.org/image/h0hly6sj9/

 

From here you want to get to the grassy path. It's easy just walk

 

http://postimage.org/image/o3ujax4ad/

 

Once you get to the grassy path go right between the mountains

 

http://postimage.org/image/4aifi7qwl/

 

On the other side of that path go right again to get to the open field

 

http://postimage.org/image/ii329qx9x/

 

Here's the local map view of where the field is.

 

http://postimage.org/image/cv6pc9ur9/

 

A random view from the field

The floating mountain

 

http://postimage.org/image/tckibogdx/

 

World map of where the floating mountain is. No you can not go all the way across the bottom of the map. Actually you can't go much further than this.

I tried Jadens getting on the Shield but instead found Vacant land that looks like it had plans

Vacant Land looks to be for something

So I had some time on my hands when a member of my Lost Island group disconnected and decided to try and explore a little. I had no idea I'd be able to get so far.

 

First, I just got out and tried to climb to some good viewpoints like these.

 

http://i1320.photobucket.com/albums/u535/pieguy119/Screenshot_2013-02-02_13_20_13_812049_zps77b3b56b.jpg

 

 

 

http://i1320.photobucket.com/albums/u535/pieguy119/Screenshot_2013-02-02_13_22_11_818799_zpsfcbad0a5.jpg

 

 

 

http://i1320.photobucket.com/albums/u535/pieguy119/Screenshot_2013-02-02_13_27_06_162634_zpse17c9175.jpg

 

 

 

Then, I decided to go for something a bit more adventurous: climbing the giant volcano that defines the Lost Island map, but I soon discovered that I could only get about half way up the mountain alone.

 

http://i1320.photobucket.com/albums/u535/pieguy119/Screenshot_2013-02-02_13_23_18_905636_zpsf141bdb8.jpg

 

 

I decided to get some help from a member in my group. All pictures from this point on require a partner, ideally, a sage and a guardian for the leap, push, and pull. We decided to head up the North face first which got us pretty close, but ended up too steep just before the mouth of the volcano.

 

http://i1320.photobucket.com/albums/u535/pieguy119/Screenshot_2013-02-02_14_11_07_415705_zps656e9544.jpg

 

 

We then went back down and decided to try scaling the South face instead; and, after some clever pushing and pulling to get past invisible walls, we finally made it to the summit!

 

http://i1320.photobucket.com/albums/u535/pieguy119/Screenshot_2013-02-02_14_33_55_862976_zps392b059a.jpg

 

 

And just for fun, we decided to jump into the mouth of the volcano only to find that it wasn't actually filled with lava! It was totally safe.

It took a while to figure out, but was quite rewarding to conquer. I've never seen any pictures of Lost Island exploration and this may very well be the first successful climb to the peak of the Lost Island volcano. If anyone else makes there way up there, particularly if you find a way to do it alone, please post pictures. Thanks to Pythagores for taking the time to help figure this out!

A weird spot in the Foundry. Just jump off the ledge after the final fight in a specific spot and you'll end up here - miss the spot by even a foot and... well die pretty much.

Found an area in Alderaan yesterday, not sure if it's for a datacron or what but there's a building with an open door + a cave but I couldn't seem to get to it.

Managed to get near it but then there was an invisible floor :(

This one is by no means difficult to get to, just thought it was a nice view.
