    Mountains!?!..............

    Oh god.......... I'm having enough problems with the ''multi level'' city of Orsinium.........

    *splat....

    *how did I end up that high?? :)
    Heh, yup. It's pretty different from the rather horizontal cities we're used to. Half the time I find myself abseiling to reach lower places instead of taking the longer path.

    Dunno bout you people, but when I see a cliff high enough where the enemies look like ants at the bottom... I must... JUMP IT!

    I just wish I could wrecking blow my friends off of said cliff first.

    You guys know the mountain/cliff in the Tempest Island Dungeon? Don't you just want to jump off that thing? ;)

    In some cases... I thought I saw something down the bottom of a cliff, so I just jumped. A guy started laughing at me from up top, until he noticed me resurrecting and opening a chest.

    I have the same problem. It has not been too much of an issue in the alliance zones, but in Wrothgar it's gotten pretty bad. I think I've died all of twice to actual enemies, but probably 30+ times from fall damage.

    I have tested fall damage vs costs to repair on my high VR Ranked Characters. It's only 46 gold and a filled soul gem. I take the leap of death, resurrect and go on my merry way.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    If you read the patch notes they actually made falling more deadly. Previously if you hit a slope/non traversable piece of terrain your damage was negated. Now it is apparently not.

    You have not lived until you have sprinted full speed then hit Streak right off the edge of a cliff. That should be an achievement imo. Sooooo fulfilling lol

    Since Orsinium patch my list of the most OP things in eso is bigger now:
    1. Lag
    2. Fall damage
    3. Slaughterfishes
    4. Cliffs in Orsinium patch

    Lag is still in the lead tho and now stronger than ever... sadly.

    As a stamblade, I've ALWAYS wanted to streak off of a mountain instead of just the leap or, my personal stamblade favourite, the dodge roll to (most usually) devastation.

    Ever since I read of the jump to doom off of the rocky nose, gaining an achievement, I've leapt, dived, ran, ridden, dodge-rolled, or just plain stepped off of every cliff imaginable searching for that ever elusive PVE extra XP. :flushed:


    I'm so glad to learn I'm not the only cliff diver in ESO. :smile:

    This thread reminds me of the quest in Borderlands 2 where you are told to kill yourself by jumping off a cliff to your death :P

    That said, I am very guilty of dying from large amounts of fall damage because I'm too impatient to go the long way around...

    I see some suggestions derailing, wanting more aspects of the game nerfed and to that I say:

    Why the hell not?

    Everything has been nerfed already so why not nerf some more? Let's start by nerfing those cliffs, by the Eight, my character is suicidal!

    I've done the arrow mistake...one of the reasons I no longer use that skill lol.
    Felt such an idiot when I did too...

    On XBox haven't seen Wrothgar yet, so any advice (ie: spoiler) on where to do this jump?

    LMAO.. I Bing "Orsinium Wrothgar full map with legend" and this comes up. Glad I stumbled in because I was just thinking about how they need to re-balance the mountains. Between the bosses and the mountains, I'm scared to go out alone.

    That said, there's no better place for parkour in all of Tamriel right now. All the funky-fresh moves you can do are super dope, y0! Just make sure you rock two or three wards/shields before taking the leap of faith. =oP

    The Mountains are too OP. I got one hit by one the other night.

    That'd be even funnier if they had a boss mob called "The Mountain".. That'd be an awesome Easter egg!!
