Guild Wars 2

I’m pretty new to jumping puzzles, i’ve always known they were around, but there was always something else to do, and tbh, i’m pretty terrible at them and as such I didnt really like them.
At least, until recently.
I wandered into the Demongrub pits awhile back, and it was nice and easy, a good introduction and i found myself hooked. Since then i’ve done the Morgans spiral/ Dark Reverie set, Coddlers Cove, Spelunkers Delve and I just finished Goemm’s Lab (Literally the most frustrating and eventually awesomely rewarding thing i’ve done in the game. Such a sense of achievement).

Anyway, what I wanted to know is, which Jumping Puzzles would you recommend I try next, level isnt a problem, but something where im not going to die constantly would be great.

Tl;DR Favorite jumping puzzles for someone new to them

Thanks

The wiki has a listing of all the jumping puzzles in each zone.

Favourite puzzle…. I still like Weyandt’s Revenge in LA, but it has a special place in my heart because it’s the first puzzle I found by accident during my first night of playing the game.

I’ve found the one in lions arch to be fun but they are short and don’t give the greatest rewards.

Scavenger’s Chasm in Malchor’s Leap
It is both easy and hard at the same time. Potentially frustrating but not in the same way as Geom’s.

Some of the more interesting ones would be Conundrum Cubed, Griffonrook Run and Swashbuckler’s Cove. Possibly Chaos Crystal Cavern as well.

Hidden Garden is not very long nor very difficult but it has some very nice scenery.

Branded Mine is “you should at least check it out”.

There is more than one in Lion’s Arch.

I meant to put ones haha sorry

The JP I found most fun actually..and dont laugh but its the one in EB (Obsidian Sanctum). The one where people are trying to kill you actually, but you probly won’t die if you know how to run/fight back. It would also help if you bring a friend or stayed with a group, but except for those annoying thieves you only have to worry about the JP, its actually very fun. though a bit long for some people (its a 5min run if you know what your doin).

The other one I liked is not really a JP but actually a vista. But getting there was really fun (plus it took me leik an hour to figure out how to do it) and its the only vista I actually remember even with my 100% map completion so..lol. the Breached Wall vista in Diessa i think.

Just off the top of my head, I would recommend Hidden Garden in Mount Maelstrom. It’s fairly long, intermediate in difficulty, and has awesome scenery. If possible, though, try to do it with a friend, since it’s a bit of a pain to get back in if you die.

There’s also Spekk’s Lab in Caledon Forest, but it may be irritating depending on how you feel about timed jumps.

The fastest ones are the one in the northeast of Lion’s Arch, west of Bloodtide coast, and the short one in Malchor’s leap. These are so fast I’d recommend doing them as a daily.

The most interesting/hardest one is Griffonrook run w/bomb. The ultimate challenge, as it were.

The most beautiful ones to me are Spekk’s Lab (Lava!), Griffonrook run and Hidden Garden.

Wall Breach Blitz counts as both a jumping puzzle and it also contains a vista but it was a JP at launch so it has no chest. It is also a skill point.

Some of my favourites:

• Branded Mine (Not super easy, but I love it. It was my first.)
• Chaos Crystal Cavern
• Spekk’s Lab (is much easier when you bring a friend as some of the longer sections then can be broken down into shorter sections. You will need someone to stand somewhere else and push a button for you.)
• Under New Management

My favorite is Goemm’s Lab http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Goemm%27s_Lab

You have to know when to move, and there are elements and enemies inside that make it a little more difficult than the average jp. It has golem checkpoints though, so if you fall you don’t have to go all the way back to the beginning. You also receive a buff for each section, which can wear off.

Any time jp is on dailys, I do this quick and easy one: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Crimson_Plateau
