If you know me, you know I can't make movies worth a lick, so I'm hoping someone will
be so kind as to provide documentation for this trick so it can be submitted :) (I'm also
hoping, since this isn't in the archive, that this trick is new...and classifies as a trick at all)
How to get on top of Silent Cartographer in any mode, in any difficulty, with no weapons
and no vehicles:
Kill one of the first pair of Hunter you stumble upon, and then lure the other one back
towards the path from whence you came until you reach the first rock. There stand
between him and the outer cliff. Jump just before he melees you and you'll be tossed up
onto the cliff.
This'll work even on Legendary, and you won't lose any health bars (in fact, the harder
the difficulty, the easier the trick is to preform. Hunters recieve an AI boost, of course,
which makes them much easier to lure various places).
I'm hoping people can take advantage of this for various other stunts (like jumping up a
floor on Truth & Reconciliation, or getting above the land bridge on Keyes). All things I
probably shouldn't bother trying since I can't document 'em :)
An hour later, Frogblast provided a movie.

This technique was first described by Chad on the HBO Forum on January 11, 2002.
