    Default Hayweird Foundry Jump Issue *Spoiler*

    I just finished the new Night Revel challenge called Hayweird Foundry. If I didn't have the Jump spell on my character, I never would have been able to complete it.

    I wasn't able to get past the 1st lava pit (r1 lx1984 ly1552 i2049 cInside ox77.08 oy233.61 oz-105.36 h21.1), with a Jump skill of 20 (counting +4 from Greater Heroism). That is excessive, considering the challenge can be played at a level as low as 7. Not everyone is going to have even a 20 Jump skill at level 7, let alone what is actually needed to make the jump. Any Armor Check Penalties from certain armors will increase the Jump skill for players as well, making this worse.

    My 1st run through I used my Jump spell and got my skill up to 50, which was enough. I ran through again, after purchasing +10 Jump potions from the Marketplace vendor, and no GH this time, and a Jump of 26 was enough to make the jump after a few tries.

    Please fix the pile of rocks so they are easier to jump, add more to the right ledge to make it easier to jump to, or add a ladder.

    You can get a long-lasting (30 minute) +20 Jump buff from the House Phiarlan patron if you have 75 House P favor. This is possible for any level 7 character who has access to any one of Tangleroot, Sentinels or Threnal.

    I remember those buffs being popular in the early risia events, for example, so that even low level characters could have a shot at some good coin runs.

    Sentinels is Deneith favor, yes? Did you mean Phiarlan Carnival?

    All it's premium content, include Phiarlan Carnival ( not Sentinels, I'm think ). You believe, f2p should not have opportunity to run this challenge? 8)

    You can earn 93 favor running ftp house P quests. (only need 75 for the buffs) Ellis was just mentioning some easy common ones not an exhaustive list.

    Yep, Carnival, not Sentinels. Brain fart.

    Double, actually, as I originally wrote Sorrowdusk and then changed it to Threnal at the last minute.

    Although I have no issue with characters having to remove shields and/or armour to make jumps or last long enough when swimming in quests. That's supposed to be one of the drawbacks of armour

    But yeah for event type quests the bar should be set fairly low.
