I have found Urmaug’s Secret to be very easy (once I finally realized where the hell I was supposed to go, and got over the nausea). The one in Sharkmaw Caverns has very few actually difficult jumps as well, but I still fail at it without necro staff. Nowadays Morgan’s Spiral feels really easy because I’ve done it so many times, and really there’s only one tricky precise jump there. Did Under New Management today – super easy, that one, only needed one try to get through. King Jalis’ Refuge was also pretty easy and very short, but I suck at short jumps so I ended up falling from the pipes a lot.

Conversely, anything with really small platforms is really hard for me, so I’m struggling with Coddler’s Cove and many puzzles with narrow planks to jump onto. It doesn’t help that I’m playing on my old laptop, which causes low fps at odd times, and probably affects responsiveness and stuff, too… So I’m dealing with slight delay in response all the time. :p

- Loreclaw Expanse in Plains of Ashford (use the route around the traps)
- Vizier’s Tower in Straits of Devastation

For closely placed narrow planks make diagonal jumps instead of perpendicular ones.
Won’t work for Coddler’s Cove but will work for part of Not So Secret, King Jalis Refuge and other places. The effect is that you have a larger landing platform and in many cases it means you can just make a max distance jump instead of having to try to stop at the right time. So basically it helps to avoid both under and over shooting your landing platform. Of course you can still end up walking off the platform once you have landed …

See picture.

@ Khisanth: I know, I figured it out a couple of weeks ago when I was trying Fawcett’s. Managed the King Jalis Refuge just fine with that method days ago, and it works wonders in the first couple of jumps in Fawcett’s, but it’s more that I still walk off places once I land than over- or undershooting. ^^ Thanks for the tip all the same!
