That youtube video is a typical example of how NOT to make a youtube video.

Seriously, its like 30 seconds of "Cheesy Swordy Cling Clang Logo, Brought to you by Underwear Models with Phones!" Then all of a sudden "RAShhh MERchaants PLUummet wib wobbly Title logo" for good measure.

^ This too; no offense OP.

That's funny, I haven't been back to this location since beta, where I will shamelessly admit that I spent a good bit of my testing time on this particular spot. I always got stuck at one spot where I seemed to hit an invisible wall and convinced myself it was impossible. Well done.

Yep, my experience exactly. But apparently, there's a way around, below or above it. I'm still reluctant to try, because I see myself wasting hours on that again already. It's calling me, tho.

When I was working on this during beta, I thought for sure there would be a chest on the other side. It was disappointing to find absolutely nothing.

Definitely needs an achievement and a master chest. It's not easy.

No offense taken. :-) Originally that video was created as a kind of advert for a newbie section on our ESO Podcast (ElderScrolling). I was just being lazy and didn't chop off the Guild promos before putting it up here.

Achievement Earned: Lemming

(Because you know you always see a stream of people falling into the water below, determined to make this work.)

Seriously though, well done, OP.

They *have* to give us an achievement for it now!

Nice. It's good to see that people are still trying it. I have been world searching for other like places to base an event off of.

Yeah I did this in beta and then again when my main character hit the vet zones during full access.

They should make jump puzzles all around the world... with some nice rewards at the end like a special merchant and/or chest with a high chance of something awesome or unique, etc.. (yes yes I know that's similar to what GW2 does however it's one of the few things GW2 does right). Jump puzzles can be awesomely fun and a great way for people to spend time doing other things than the usual in MMOs!

I agree completely. That was one of the main things that I missed when leaving GW2.

I most definitely agree that this needs an achievement tied to it. (I was surprised and disappointing there wasn't one when I crossed it back in launch.) And maybe even a dye, title, or both!

+1 for the achievement.

Call it "The Mad Plummeteer".

And there should be a chest on the last island that contains 5 pieces of a new "Mad Plummeteer" set. The Mad Plummeteer was a Khajiti pirate captain (cat reference for jumping over the bridges) that came to this spot to die and hid his armor there. Next to the chest you find a skeleton happily overlooking the see with a skeleton of his pet next to him.

The armor bonuses are health, magicka, stamania and the 5 piece bonus doubles the gold you loot from bodies and chests. Great set to help out new players.

Definitely needs to be an achievement!
I tried it once or twice with an old character, but never could make it to the other side. Two of my newer characters get there soon, I'll try again

The funny thing is, when I played the game Redguard (all takes place on Stros M'Kai) I got stuck further out on this string of islands that leads to a necromancers abode. And when my templar started on Cadwells gold, he didn't get very far either. Fell through the bridge several times. As did my sorceress. Too bad there's nothing good on the other side of the bridge, except the view and a great sense of "Yay, I did it!"
