| Notes: | Hardest part of this vista road, is the Door u need to pass, sometimes they are closed, and you need to wait for it to open up, seems like it is in connection with 2 veteran bosses around, one of them is on the same level as the door is, and the 2nd is the one from the near event Protect Explorer Harlow while he looks for the Dragon’s Eye. After we killed one of them, the door opened, and we could continue to vista. Additional info (thanks Chitiwork): The door is opened by pulling a ring on a chain at the top of the wooden path that has the door on it. The chain is right next to a veteran dredge mob (Veteran Dredge Occilator if I remember correctly). |

Yep! This Veteran is guarding the chain that opens this door, on the very top of the South West Tower.
A video link for this one would be a bit more helpful as the images barely get you setup to know where the heck your going
WORST VISTA POINT EVER
There is a way to get around the door without pulling the chain. Start up the ramp you indicate in your map shot (took a while to find). If the gate is closed, simply go up one more flight and simply jump down over the gate (have to jump at an angle since a fence prohibits you from jumping straight down). This makes it faster in that you don’t have to defeat the mob, though there are still tons of enemies to fight through. Good luck! and I agree this was a pain of a vista point.
As another commenter has observed, the hardest part about this Vista is finding the first tower/ramp to start upwards toward the actual Vista. So here’s how to easily find it despite the ambiguity of the screenies here:
1. Start at Grey Road Waypoint, which is to the south of Dostoev Sky Peak. I chose this entrance because it seems the shortest way to the heart.
2. Go N and NW into the cave and turn right at the T-intersection, heading NE.
3. Turn left when you can, heading NW and then W directly to the Renown Heart.
4. From the Heart, go SW into the huge main chamber.
5. Keep left as you enter this huge chamber, and curve around the rock face to your left and up a small incline.
6. Proceed into the small torch-lit cave-passage at the top of the short incline, heading SE.
7. Follow this passage as it loops around, and turn right at the end to find the bottom of the first wooden ramp you need to climb.
8. Fight your way to the top of this tower and note the closed gate you pass on your right near the top of this tower. That’s the one you will open in step 10. If it’s already open (because someone else opened it) by all means turn right and go through it, skipping steps 9-11.
9. At the top, go the only way you can go, toward the Veteran Dredge Oscillator.
10. Kill the Vet (or stealth if you’re a Thief) and pull the chains on the rock wall behind him to open the gate to the next tower/ramp.
11. Hurry back down a level to the now-opened gate you passed on the way up- it will close about 30 seconds after you pulled the chain.
12. Go through the gate leading across to another tower and set of ramps. The way from here to the Vista is linear and obvious, with several annoying Dredge mobs and at least one Vet and a turret at the Vista.
Hope all that made the screenies a little more understandable.
Thanks this explanation was super helpful
