These days I am working on completing jumping puzzles and after finishing one of them, i got the achievement and the chest at the end and logged out. The next day, when i logged in again, I spawned next to the chest and got loot because the the daily reset timer ran out.
Since then, I made a habit out of it, finishing a jumping puzzle before logging out. When I log in again, I start my adventures with a nice chest to loot without having done anything for it.
I am not sure, if this is working as intended. And even though its basically not free loot because you had to finish the jp before you logged out, you get twice the reward. Maybe this is avoidable, if a log out forces you to spawn at the closest uncontested waypoint when you log in again.

All jp chests respawn every day

The best ones are in WvW jumping puzzles, since you get around 10 badges, 2 greens (maybe 1 rare sometimes) + 2 siege blueprints.

It appears this might be a hole in Anet’s setup and could be an unintended exploit possibility. They probably will fix this soon.

Its not exploit or bug, its a normal thing …
Just like ori ores respawn, chests have 24h respawn rate …

But i think, if you logout in WvW, you log in from where you entered wvw before, the Asura Gate in LA for example, so you cant exploit it there.

But Ori nodes respawn on different locations every time, chests dont.

Maybe that’s the reason they don’t put higher rewards in those and prefer to promote endless farming/grinding in Orr. A fix to this “issue” (on logout in a JP – teleport to nearest WP) should allow them to fix the awful loot in those chests and make the effort worth it.

Nope, ori ores are always on same spot, they change only when new client update rolls out
People track ori ores on several servers and mark them online on maps so that people can farm all ori ores in less than 30 mins … For example gwshack.info is used for Gandara server

Actually, my guild mates and I have discovered that the two Ori nodes up in Frostgorge where Jormag spawns only show up at the same spot for a short time before we have to hunt their new locations down. For the past 7 days they have moved at least twice to my knowledge.

We assumed this was to prevent botters from camping them (which really might make sense) but do not know for sure the reason for them to be moved.
