B7 purple sigil solution

[HYPERED1]

I've located one of the new purple sigils in B7 puzzle Big Lump of Mine but there doesn't seem to be a way to reach it as jumping on top of a hexahedron doesn't work as the sigil is still too high. All the others so far were pretty much just out in the open.
Anyone know how to get to it?

doing exactly that now, will post, if I find out how that works. Tried jumping onto the fence posts on the right hand ledge there - but cannot get up onto the wall, even with a box on a fence post. Guessing we have to get onto a wall and walk over the long ledge... ?

got it! It is doable when you stack the two boxes on the mine that brings you to the platform with the sigil above it. You can stack and jump on them from the platform. When you take a tiny step back and do a running jump you can reach the sigil! Good luck!

Just tried stacking 2 boxes on the mine but i am also unable to reach the sigil. either the "jump here" helper takes over wiping out all my speed and height or i jump too early and miss the platform or come just under the sigil. any help?

Same, I just tried for 20 minutes and I'm not even close.

i managed to just step back on the box a tiny step, then press the sprint key and look towards the sigil so i don't trigger the "jump here" option. Then sprint-jump - took a couple attempts.

i just manged to get it by jumping backwards of all things, no matter how i tried jumping forward i either came too short or triggered the 'jump here' helper

Just managed to get it by jumping backwards too. I'm still sure that it's not meant to be that high up, especially as there's another thread about some of the commentaries in world B also being way too high up to reach.

Managed to stack the boxes a couple of steps from the top of the stairs leading into the platform where the purple sigil is, jumped on top of them from the small, slightly elevated corner of said platform, then sprint jumped from them to the sigil.

Got it. In case of failure, you can rewind using R.

This sigil is a pain in the butt. Breaking out 4 cubes, two fans, one jammer, a couple of connectors (splitters) no problem. Jumping that damned purple ... I'm glad we got rewind,.

I've been trying this BS for 30 minutes and still cant get it. Great game design.

Whichever moron at croteam designed this puzzle should lose their job.

You can easily get on top of the puzzle from the first platform on right when you enter the puzzle, use the 2 boxes.

Then just jump down on the purple sigil.

An easy solution is to place one box on one corner (slightly raised corner) and the other box in the corner diagonally opposite. Stand on one box and you will have the option to jump. Jump and you get the sigil.

Yup, I can confirm this simple solution works. I was trying (and failing) for an hour before I read this post.
