    It's not a fluke either... here is a different tree. Not all trees work.

    No potion for this. There seems to be bug or something like the avatar is trying to walk over the tree. I don't even jump. I just try to walk through the tree.

    It came in with the easier-to-walk-over-minor-bumps patch. There were always a few select trees you could run up, now there are many more.

    The ability to climb some trees has been in the game for years (as mentioned by Coswald), although it is not always easy to "find the way up" on these trees.

    Examples:

    1. In 2018, Climbing a tree was reported as bug, but the reply was "by design"
    https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/f...pot-trees-can-be-climbed.126377/#post-1042540

    2. A report from 2017:
    https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/f...-build-546-avatar-climbs-tree-floating.78480/

    3. Another report in 2018:
    https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/f...an-walk-straight-up-them.121908/#post-1018151

    4. Here is a more recent report. Look under second spoiler, and then the sub-spoiler of the Lonely Old Man
    https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/f...sure-hunts-spoilers.61625/page-6#post-1277609
    The same big tree is in tanglemire and can be climbed as well.

    I have not tried to climb a tree in the last few releases. As Coswald mentioned, some fixes they applied may have made the ability to climb a tree easier.
    Now if we could only climb ladders and ropes (rather than be teleported by them) :cool:

    I recently spotted a rabbit up in the branches of a tree (admittedly a much smaller tree than in the above pics) and I became rather nervous at the thought of dark monkeylapins dropping on me from above. At least I'm now reassured on that point.

    That's a really nice looking garden below you. You better be wearing a woodpecker's condom for what you're doing with that tree though.

    I thought Tree Climbing skill was the Juxtapose + Safe Fall skill combo??!?

    Nothing new really. I was doing this years ago when I was active climbing everything I could.
