My POV of the last Trib Mode full clear training race with half of the finalists for the 2026 Tribulation Cup Finals. My personal best full clear time yet :)
This was a live commented race setting (I put the music because i dont know if all the racers would agree to be heard on the video) therefore not all the shortest, high-risk skips were used. Between zones we /gg so you can skip the pen animation during the loading screen. Buying potions after killing cage/boss is no time loss.
*) The definition of "Deathless" used here is without counting the intentional deaths such as /ggs at the end of zones, jumping down to reset to checkpoint in w2z1 to get to shop, dropping before w2z2 starts (when you gg at the end of w2z1 you get instantly into w2z2 and get a free try to get the cloud checkpoint before the zone actually starts and resets you to start position) or resetting the Elite before the wizard in w2z3.
If you are looking for guides for some of the best skips have a look at our video guides below:

![GW2 Trolls Revenge (⌚ 1:54.99) speed run - Lions Arch Jumping Puzzle
[former WR] Speed run of Weyandts Revenge Jumping Puzzle in Lions Arch - part of the [JP] mesmer speedrun spam project
►Run specific comment◄
This run includes usage of Position Rewinder. Thanks Farnielle for the inputs :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... ;(

Run using 3 skips - quite OK-ish but still room for improvement I guess :)

![GW2 - 100% skip Swashbucklers Cove Gendarran Fields Jumping Puzzle
This is a very easy skip for the Swashbucklers Cove Jumping Puzzle in Gendarran Fields if you have mounts. Start from Almuten Waypoint [&BJQBAAA=].
You dont need Griffon - It also works with Skimmer and Raptor from up there in the same fashion (Jump and deploy glider directly when you are dismounted) but is a bit more tricky.
