I don’t think it is fair to put a diving puzzle on the very top of a difficult jumping puzzle. Some players have difficulty doing the jumping puzzles but can do to diving skills. By putting the the final diving skill on this puzzle you have successfully kept them from earning a skill that they would have been entitled to. It is ok to put them with a lesser jumping puzzle but not one of the most difficult. This is my last diving skill and now I can not get the achievement. Please separate it from this puzzle giving everyone the right to earn the diving skill. Thank you!
It’s no less unfair than the dive from the lighthouse in Lion’s Arch, in which you not only can’t see the water, you can’t even tell which direction it’s in, and a “diving board” tease exists that won’t clear the base of the tower for a 100% chance of suicide. Or Troll’s Revenge, which is such a fail that it can’t even be found without a wiki or a guide, can’t be completed without a wiki or a guide, and almost certainly will result in your death dozens of times before you give up. Or “downed skills” which are worthless 90% of the time because the mob that downed you immediately runs out of range so that you can’t possibly rally, or stands over you and continues to stab you so that you can’t recover health. Or the fact that the chests in these puzzles invariably reward items your profession cannot use, or tokens for specific annual events that won’t be active for another nine months, can’t be sold, and will have to be discarded or clutter your inventory. There is far too much BS like this in this game. The whole game is an exercise in frustration, so I’m not sure why you’re surprised that they would make part of an achievement nearly inaccessible.
Ugh.. Like you, I have all of the diving achievements done except this one. It’s a horrible jump puzzle unless you’re really, really good at them. I have trouble with the spinning and uplift platforms on this one. And despite all my attempts, I cannot complete this dive successfully.
Like the previous Comment I cannot complete the diving. It took me
