Hey all - thought I'd upload this run - My tricks in description!
I hope you find them helpful :)
0:07 Use skill 7 right at the start to do a third boost. This way you can also use the skill twice within one try.
0:20 Do a small jump before the leap - so you can do a trick in the air to get enough endurance - alternatively drift at 0:27 as shown.
0:29 Boost before the uneven plane so that you get all the speed out of your boost and dont lose too much speed due to the hills - skip above them :)
0:31 Try to stay on top as much as possible here to not lose speed while going uphill to often
0:43 Start drifting early so that you get the corner right well and to be in a good position for the next turn
0:54 Already turn during mid air so that you can nicely drift (in case you are fast enough still, otherwise you can just turn normally)
1:00 start drifting insanely early to get this corner with full speed
1:05 Use skill 7 at the end again as soon as ready again to get enough endurance to boost out of the final drift

![GW2 Morgans Leap (⌚ 0:30.71) & Dark Reverie (⌚ 0:19.05) speed runs - Caledon Forest JPs
[current WR] Speed runs of the Morgans Leap (Spiral) and Dark Reverie Jumping Puzzles in Caledon Forest - part of the [JP] mesmer speedrun spam project
►Run specific comment◄
Dark Reverie starts at 0:53.
The Morgans Leap one was very hard to beat - kudos to Joe Jonny Jeff who already presented a unbelievable run (34s) here. I was next to quit trying this run - but then we found that skip to the branch that saved us 1-2 seconds :) Thanks Falkna and Nuriel for searching with me!
For the Reverie one there is noch much to say, besides that it can be skipped easily with the TP gun. Thanks Nuriel for finding that skip and sorry for beating your time :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 :). We will release a full playlist of (almost) all Jumping Puzzles soon.
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, 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.
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... ;(

![Chalice of Tears unrestricted 2:22.93 (current best strat) - Mirage
Since the build from the last run is not possible anymore because the superspeed has been removed from Master of manipulation trait, the fast long teleport gun shot is not possible anymore - the range and speed decreased for those shots now, so only swiftness (+rune of speed) is accelerating these shots now.
However, with a few new strats and imrpoved movement here and there the current build still has the potential of beating the previous record time. If I had not messed up the one blink before CP3 it could have been at least on par. Therefore, I thought Ill share the current best run I got :D
