Twisted Tower dropping down shortcuts

Quick question: was this intentional for Devs to have these short cuts in place? At least on Destro side, you can port to the top floor, hop off to the left, then turn around and drop down to the middle BO platform right next to a door pretty quickly and easily. I'm sure there are similar spots on Order side, but its not hard at all to hit the sweet spot on Destro and cut the run time down drastically. Yeah you'll lose health when you hit, so doing it mid game is a risk.

Just curious.

Not necessarily a case of whether or not something is 'intentional'. Moreso 'what weird and wonderful ways can players come up with to utilise zones'.

If it's not breaking gameplay dramatically, and is open for use one both sides, it's usually *okay*.

Still a firm believer in the old rumor that the Mythic/EA Devs created TW scenario just to screw around with players who were complaining about not enough new content.

Both sides can do some really efficient work of this SC, especially if they have a little coordinated group action going. It's easy to fly up top, drop down to Loft immidiately, cap that, drop down again to Atrium and then run around the BO, trying to cap it till the other side either focuses on you completely (at which point they get burned by your side), or you manage to sneak in a cap and hope someone is up top to fire away.

Got roughly 200 opp emblems out of it over the weekend, so I'm for sure not complaining.
