Me and a party were just going to Lions Arch, We were fighting the undead, and suddenly, as I was walking my character was rising, in about a half a minute I was so high, the ground started to blur, and the sky textures got messed up, I was a real help to the party when I was making 50-60 hits with my bow from up there, My party member will come online tonight, and send me the screenshots he took, because you can really see the height from down there, It was amazing!

That happened one time to me in Regant Valley. I was trying to get to Fort Ranik (post searing) when a large mob of charrs came through that little valley before that large aqueduct. We all died, and we were resurrected at the thing. Well, I noticed there was only 3/4 people in my party. I started running forward, when then I saw my mage running about 60 ft in the air straight towards the charr that just killed us. Soon, he died again. It was quite an odd glitch that I'm sure happened to a few others also.

When your that far up arrows can hit max 200 with no skill.

So in the equation to calculate damage from arrows does the person with the high ground have an advantage, like real life?

Arrows have a range like 23-32, but when your higher the more damage it does.

This same thing happened to one of my henchmen on more then one occasion. Here are a few screenshots of it, its not as impressive as it seems.

It happens to henchmen all the time -- something to do with the pathing AI, I would guess.

I've never heard it happening to a player before though. Score one for the bad guys!

Not only can you float, you can apparently have trees growing out of Melandru Stalkers!

ROTFLMAO at the picture.

this happens to me a lot actually, probably 3-5 times already with the henchmen. I'll be fighting with them at some place or running with them and we'll all die. When we revive at that shrine place, one of the henchmen will just TAKE OFF and start running RIGHT THROUGH the mountains.

It's freakin hilarious, and they'll get attacked by enemies and stuff as they go through. i think they are running back to the place where they last died because i usually run back to where i died and before i get there, they are usually running back towards me from that direction.

it's usually alesia the healer too who just takes off. like she's got a date somewhere, that bald headed woman. lol

The same happens to me with henchmen after we rez. They'll just start running straight at the nearest enemy and completely ignore the laws of nature. Once I had a guy who fell UNDERground and got stuck there. After we died, I switched to his view and started playing with the camera. Everything left that kind of "double image" where the new position of things appeared before the old ones dissapeared. Also when I looked at the sky there were messed up pictures of rocks and other terrain things.
