Guild Wars 2

Simply put, add a temporary travel buff to a player that completes a jumping puzzle which allows them to use their next waypoint free of charge. This is a more complicated solution than simply increasing the reward from jumping puzzle chests by ~3 silver but it encourages jumping puzzle enthusiasts while not significantly impacting botting that might occur if jumping puzzles were more profitable.

afaik, only a few jumping puzzles require waypointing to get out

And you still can go to LA free of charge, so where’s the problem?

So… This way from where ever we are we can travel to the Mist, then to LA, do the ridiculously easy JP on the east side of the zone then WP to Arah for free. Farm farm farm, Mist, LA, sewer JP, WP back for free. Farm farm farm, Mist, LA, Pirate JP, WP back for free.

Hmm… is it just me or does this seem like a no go.

Yeah, I agree that some JPs (which don’t have an exit, therefore you have to WP out of them) are annoying, but there’s not a big number of them, there’s only a few. I would rather see the improvement among the JP rewards according to their difficulty, that should be much better motivation for jumping enthusiasts, it’s sad that you get practically the same reward for southern cove camp JP (1 min of time max) and the Mount Maelstorm one (which takes much more time and even jumping effort) or even the Aetherblade JP which I consider as one of the hardest in-game. That doesn’t seem fairly distributed reward to me.

The point isn’t to get out of the jumping puzzle but to let you waypoint to the next puzzle you want to do for free.

As far as doing jump puzzles so you can TP to Arah for free…. So? you did the jump puzzle and you now get your TP charge waived. Thats 3 silver TP charge for spending 3 minutes doing a jumping puzzle.

The point is it isn’t game breaking but it does let people who want to run jumping puzzles for content waypoint to the next one after completion of another JP.

Well, I personally would be glad to pay that 3 silver for WP, if the reward from the JP was worth it

Sorry guy, but the simple fact is, it’s called a money sink for a reason. It’s not supposed to be free.
