Guild Wars 2

Hey guys!

Okay, I know about the 24 hour reset thingy for the chests at the end of each jumping puzzle, but I could really do with some help.

Yesterday I did the EB Jumping Puzzle and got the chest, but today I did it and I didn’t get the chest. Yes, fair enough, I don’t think my 24 hours are over yet – However, just a mere question.

Do I need to leave the JP and come back in, in order for the chest to reset? Or can I wait for it to reset whilst sitting in front of it?

I don’t think your location matters for resetting the chests. I have been doing the jumping puzzle in Lion’s Arch (in the mideast) for the daily achievements, and I keep logging back on the next day to find the chest reset and lootable when I load into the end of the puzzle.

This is correct. One time I did the EB puzzle and was just a ‘little’ bit early and while I was sitting around talking to people it turned lootable within 10 minutes.

Thanks for the help guys!

I never just wait around but I have logged out of a character and left them next to the chest and it resets.

Sometimes because I was going to quit and just wanted to see what this one little thing was, which turned into a jumping puzzle, which turned into 30 minutes of trying to finish said puzzle so I have to quit anyway. Sometimes because I feel like what I got from the chest wasn’t worth the effort so I want to loot it twice to compensate. (Although I’d have to have farmed Dark Reverie for a week to make it worth the effort of getting up there.)

I think that’s how a lot of people did the jump puzzles for the monthly before it was changed – they’d park one or more characters at/near the end and just log into them regularly to get credit for the puzzle. Which is why you now need to do different puzzles.
