Saftey fitting the griff towers hurts those with safefall

[Dazzler_Twodir]

<DIV>Where are they going to practice now where it won't outright kill them at lower levels?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>We don't have trees that we can climb up.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>It's not like Safefall in EQ 1 where you could practice on the zone walls or a hill.</DIV> <DIV>The drops in EQ2 will kill you compared to those.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Please add an area where the skill can be worked on say some kind of batch of crates stacked up somewhere for us to climb up on and leap off.</DIV>

Hey, I do it at South Qeynos Mage tower. Perfect place to do it, start by taking the yellow teleporter and jumping down to the red platform, then to the blue, then teleport down and back up. After you can do that safely do from the yellow to the blue platform. After that, do from the blue all the way to the ground. Then the red to the ground. <div></div>

good suggestion ... as a level 57 player, it's been a LONG time since i actually walked down the ramp off of a griffon tower.  maybe if the railing were high enough to stop people from walking off, but low enough to jump over? <div></div>

You can also go to the oracle tower and jump off the hill that leads down to the griffon tower. Run up backwards and jump down the hill. Worked for me.

<P>At the risk of annoying tradeskillers, just zone into a tradeskill zone and jump over the railings beside the broker to the workfloor below.  Run up the stairs and repeat.</P> <P> </P> <P>Deep</P>

You just have to look around a bit, but they're all over the place.</DIV>

<DIV>Some of my guildies were jumping from the cliffs in POF.. and in SC you can take the elavator up and just jump down.. </DIV>

[Trepan]

Bah, elevators take too long.   Dive off the platforms in the mage tower in SQ and take the teleporters back up.  Guard free and a pool in the bottom to collect your remains if you wrong-foot it. <div></div>

<P>I was practicing safe fall in Beggar's End.</P> <P> </P>

<P>I love jumping out the window at the top of Zarvonn's Tower... although I wouldn't recommend it at lower levels :smileywink:</P> <P> </P>

when zoning into thundering steppes, that first crater with the gnolls, you can constantly run up the steep side of it jump off backwards and run up it again, took my rangers from like 45 to 180 in a short amount of time.

<P> I looked for safe fall in my skills and for the life of me couldnt find it, for that matter I have taken tens of thousands of fall damage and never seen a single skill increase. Could someone please explain what I'm doing wrong.</P> <P>    Thanks</P>
