• Winter Wonderland: It’ll take more than a good pair of snow boots to get you through this Wintersday’s jumping puzzle. Speak to the Festive Youth near the snow globe in Lion’s Arch to test your luck—and your balance.
• Snowball Mayhem: If you’ve got holiday spirit and a good throwing arm, visit the Festive Lionguard near the Lion’s Arch snow globe to try out the new snowball fight PvP activity!

It looks really long, but I don't sense a timer on it. I could be wrong though!

 

[Razulian]

Hopefully there'll be a timer on it, I mean I want to achieve something.

>< Jumping Puzzles, why doth thou torment me so

 

[Ultra CHEZ]

Yes! It's that magical time of year! Holiday events, holiday events everywhere. I'm gunna pelt so many faces with snowballs.

 

[Keleynal]

I really dont want another timed jumping puzzle. They should be a stress reliever, not agitator.

 

[ToxicAsF]

The clock tower was quite stress relieving for me!

 

[Drac]

I've found that all jumping related stress dissipated once I switched from my norn to a tree-man alt. Bigger isn't always better

There was a trick to the clock tower. Place a sticker on your monitor where your feet are since that never changes. Then just aim with the sticker.

Clocktower was fun...the pain in the ass part was that Bel and I pwnt the first half of it like 4 times before we figured out where to jump for thr second half

Well I tried for 18 hours until I finally got it, and it was without cheating

 

[TIG]

took me 8 but it was awesome when I got it.

 

[Razulian]

Yeah it was, though I should note that I was hoping for better items in the chest (only got a rare).

Thanks for that. Put it in your way back machine to two months ago when I still cared.

Everyone got an exotic from doing it.
