I just wasted an hour trying to do this hero point as it is five quick jumps in a row. I am lucky if I get three done in that time. Another jump crystal should be there to allow regular joes to get the hero point, it is just a hero point. Anet please correct this obvious problem.

There is no Hero Point at Treadrock Uplands. There is one at Upland Oasis but that one only takes two jumps if you go from the west. Maybe 3 from the east.

Edit: Oops got the directions swapped. Also forgot the west approach requires gliding and it is actually 3 jumps but the east approach has at least 3 crystals. 2 jumps with the first to get on the platform with the next crystal then 1 jump with each of the next two crystals then you jump on the HP.

That’s the one in the cave with the centaur? I feel your pain OP. I have twenty characters and have completed it on all of them but I don’t ever get any better at it and each and every time it has taken me multiple tries and much frustration to get there. It is a tad easier now being able to use gliding for the last jump.

I have always done it from the west. I wasn’t aware of any way to get there from the east.

Ah that one. Hmm just ran it about 10 times. Always had time left on the crystal including the time I got trolled by lag. Gliding doesn’t really change much. Having a speed boost might and every single class has the ability to get some sort of speed boost at least as long as the duration of the crystal. Also it is 4 jumps since you start with 10 charges and I end with 6 remaining.

Every single class except the Guardian.

But, yes, in my experience a speed boost helps this immensely. I’ve done it w/o one, but only by a hair’s breadth from the crystal timing out.
