This concerns the 13th beacon in the All Fired Up! minigame, which requires level 89 Firemaking and is accessed through a ladder located at level 40 of western Wilderness, just north of the
Chaos Temple (hut)
.
That ladder cannot be climbed up if you are in combat. It did make sense given how the Wilderness used to be - it ensures a player wouldn't be able to use it to escape a PvP situation. I said it did make sense because nowadays we can opt out of PvP, which in turn makes it pretty pointless.
It wouldn't be an issue if not for recent updates. There are now Glacors near the ladder leading to that beacon. As we know, most of the monsters in the Wilderness are aggressive, and to make things worse Glacors have a huge aggro range and there is one that spawns right next to the ladder. You are considered to be 'in combat' as soon as it attacks you, which then makes it impossible to climb the ladder.
I managed to do it by using Dive and spam-clicking the ladder to climb it before the Glacor could attack me. It still aggroed the Glacor, but this way I managed to climb that ladder.
Anyway, I think Jagex should change it so that you cannot climb it while skulled rather than simply being in combat, this way one still wouldn't be able to escape PvP through that shortcut while also being able to access the beacon even under attack from nearby mobs.
