This is the original way that you had to go without mounts and gliders. For quicker ways see below.
1:09 - First Key
2:48 - Second Key
3:39 - Third Key
7:55 - Fourth Key
You have to click on them in the inventory then to combine all four
I made a shortcut video in case you have a glider:
youtu.be/uESq3I3E6r4
And one in case you have mounts (this is so broken, please disable mounts here):

![GW2 Shamans Rookery (⌚ 0:20.49) speed run - Wayfarer Foothills Jumping Puzzle
[current WR] Speed run of the Shamans Rookery Jumping Puzzle in Wayfarer Foothills - part of the [JP] mesmer speedrun spam project
►Run specific comment◄
Close one! Sh4rX made a brilliant 21.07 run with Thief, which was very hard to beat ._.!
►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
