Read whole description first!
I show many alternative ways/shortcuts for how you can complete the chalice of tears Jumping Puzzle with minimal efforts (without asking me or any nice mesmer to offer a portal service that is ;)).
If you find some jumps too hard, you can just choose another path that you might find easier :)
In case you ONLY want to collect the mursaat tokens in the JP area, watch the vid at the bottom of the description!!!
If you need BOTH JP achievement / end chest AND tokens do it as described in this video till you reach the end chest and get the tokens starting from there joining the Mursaat Token video from Minute 2.
Checkpoint Timestamps:
Checkpoint Start: 2:00
Checkpoint 1: 3:05
Checkpoint 2: 7:50
Checkpoint 3: 8:49
Checkpoint 4: 10:20
IMPORTANT:
-Checkpoints are indicated by the "refreshing mists" and by a buff that tells you which checkpoint is the last one you reached. You are revived at the current checkpoint that you have activated so you can just jump into the lava if you failed a jump.
-Skipping any checkpoint means that you cannot activate the next one, even if you reach it. Therefore, be sure to check your buff is updated each time you reach a mist. You can open the chest as soon as you have the buff "Checkpoint 4".
-You will LOSE your activated checkpoints if you either log off, change char, have a disconnect, change map(!!) or go to far away from the JP area (that's why you should get tokens 23 and 24 AFTER the end chest as you lose the buffs there).
-Teleporting using Teleport to friend only works if you aren't too far away from your friend (such that there is no loading screen).
If you rather want to see a fast run, watch:

![GW2 Wall Breach Blitz (⌚ 0:28.15) speed run - Diessa Plateau Jumping Puzzle
[current WR] Speedrun of the Wall Breach Blitz Jumping Puzzle in Diessa Plateau - part of the [JP] mesmer speedrun spam project
►Run specific comment◄
Thanks so much Falkna for the common skip research and for finding this hilarious skip through the tree :D
►About the project◄
We thought the JP section on speedrun.com needs more attention AND more Mesmer input (instead of mostly Thieves.. Mesmers CAN keep up :P) and therefore recorded some runs according to the rules defined on the website (find rules below). We tried to make the runs as entertaining and fun to watch as possible, hopefully you enjoy them :).
I personally like JPs a lot -who would have guessed it- looking for skips or helping out others. One gets to know many people by portaling in jumping puzzles (especially in the Ember Bay volcano or Not So Secret, the all time favorites :P) in case they require help or hate jumping and want to return to other stuff ASAP. It introduces a nice layer of collaboration and space to hang out. No salt, no randoms pointlessly raging about everything (besides maybe jumping, but thats what you can aid them with).
With this I also would like to highlight that it is a shame that there werent any new jumping puzzles introduced since PoF. They had so much room on these maps, but instead of creating more collaborative stuff Anet strategically decided to turn away from JPs (as seen in staffing decisions) and on these maps mainly added solo time-trials for mounts, grindy headhunts and such. Dont get me wrong, I also enjoy those... but honestly, the replay value besides grinding on those maps is close to 0. Btw, the tiny JP in Jahai Bluffs is an outrage...if I may be salty myself a bit.
►Rules for unrestriced category◄

A proposal from our side would be to introduce monthly JP leaderboards, maybe coupled to some rewards, just to revive the JPs a bit in case there arent any new planned in the future... ;(
