Longest possible jump with sj?

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.coh (More info?)

Not knowing the slot cap, and assuming greened up enhancements... I
would imagine that it's level-dependent to some degree? I know that one
of my toons increased her single jump range by a whole lot - I forget
exactly, but started out at something like 125 yds and got up to
something like 400, from a standing start. And does jumping from a run
increase the range, or does it just feel that way? How about jumping
from SS? Just wondering if anybody knows.

A large degree. Hurdle also increases jump distance for SJ quite a bit.

I've never noticed any difference between a standing jump and a running
jump...with SJ that is. With non-enhanced jumping, it makes a big
difference.

One can get around the Shard with SJ and the gravity jumps. SJ is
actually fairly helpful, in that the air control, used sparingly, can
help you stick a lot of the more difficult jumps.

Teleport is still the travel power of choice for the Shard though, since
you can get where you need to be quickly and then draw the rest of the
team to you.

I'm sure there's a badge that requires you to jump 1 mile. Never worked
out how to get it as I always landed way short.

???

A badge for jumping?

Jump a mile? Even if you 6-slotted SJ and Hurdle with +3 SOs, you wouldn't
even get half of that. Hell, probably not even 1/3.

On level ground, yes.

Try jumping off a skyscraper with that setup. You might need super-speed to
get a running start.

And/or getting a nice kintics or grav controller/defender to help out...

Sprint takes jump enhancements too.
Maybe get a kinetics guy to give you a further boost.
Possibly use one of the geysers in the Shadow Shard to get even more
distance.

Which I've experimented with, and determined to be worthless. If it adds
anything (and I'm unconvinced that it does), it's very, very little.

>Maybe get a kinetics guy to give you a further boost.

Never seem to make that much difference there either.

Well, that's just cheating. May as well get a hovering teleporter to summon
you half of the way once you start the jump.
