In Diessa Plateau there is a vista on top of a tower called Moorwatch Tower, which is standing on a hill with no visible method of getting on top of it.

How do I get on top of the Moorwatch Tower to get the vista?

Speaking to the people around the tower, you get some conversations about flying cows and harpies.

There is a harpy nest to the immediate south east and further south east than that there is a guy called called Mad Mardine, who is catapulting cows into the air.

While there are no events going on (him catapulting cows is an event in itself), you can use his catapult to throw yourself to the top of the tower;

From here you can easily get the vista, and then use the 'gate' in the top of the tower to get back down to the bottom.

Apparently this isn't the only way to do this, although the other methods are essentially 'ending the current event', making the catapult active for you to interact with.

Grats on filling up the entire front-page of the GW2 tag with your questions! I think this deserves a badge of some kind. – DavidYell Dec 5 '12 at 10:47

@Gwen I've always been of the belief that it was only seeding if it was stuff like "How do I get item A in zone X?" followed by "How do I get item A in zone Y?" and so on. – Fluttershy Dec 5 '12 at 15:46

@Fluttershy At least 2 questions have been closed as duplicates. Half of the other questions have been easily solved through a quick search (of the internet, and even just the official wiki). Maybe it's not exactly seeding, but it feels like zero research has been done before the questions are asked, and I don't think that's particularly praiseworthy. – Gwen Dec 5 '12 at 16:00

@Gwen such complaints should be on meta, rather than here. Regardless, in relation to the closed questions I did actively try to delete them and was told to leave them alone (and undelete them, in fact) for future searchability. – kalina Dec 5 '12 at 16:06

@pixel I wasn't particularly sure it was a meta-relevant question, especially considering that it's not like I hated all your questions? Just that David's comment seemed to be a great segue for my (arguably) minor concerns – Gwen Dec 5 '12 at 16:11
