I don’t understand how a Mesmer provides this even though I know they do, all day, every day, so can someone tell me what I’m missing.

On my Mesmer I see the skill with two stages: Portal Entre and Portal Exeunt, I’ll call them A and B. The first use of the skill drops A which lasts 60 seconds, the second use of the skill drops B which exists for 10 seconds.

So I can easily see how this skill lets Mesmers do the jumping puzzles a lot easier than other classes (so long as they don’t die) as it gives them the ability to ‘redo’ a failed jump as long as they drop A beforehand.

But I utterly fail to see how a Mesmer can get to top of a JP with either portal at the bottom, given the short duration of A and the even shorter duration of B.

I have to assume I’m missing something here, can someone please tell me what?

Thanks.

Usually the Mesmer reaches the chest/etc. Then drops A on that point.

You drop B after dropping down/waypointing/etc. Have to make sure you don’t out range it of course.

^ What he said.

In other words, it’s even more of a service than you realized: we’re doing the Jumping Puzzle so you don’t have to.
