Three of these are located in Rondure Alcove, one of the Locus Shift treasure rooms.

To access this room, you first must:

Research Metrial Understanding and Aealic Understanding
Complete A Means to an End
Unlock the Rondure Alcove from the Rondure Locus Arrangement at /way #1970 50.5 27.6, between 2 platforms, on the side of a pillar (accessible from flying or via the Tertius Locus)

Next gain at least 60 Cosmic Energy and enter Gravid Repose. Use the Locus Shift to take the Interior Locus to the Inner Chamber. You will now see a new Locus Shift (the Arcae Locus) upon the platform at the north-western side of the room, which you can use to travel to the Rondure Alcove.

Inside this room is a jumping puzzle that requires you to reach the top while avoiding the 3 moving Erratic Orbs that will knock you back if they collide with you.

The goal is to reach the Rondure Cache at the top, which contains the usual amount of unique treasure resources, and also Pocobold (will still drop a duplicate even if you have already obtained this).

If you have Protoform Synthesis unlocked for pets, Protoform Schematic can also be found on top of the archway that you can jump to, which contains Schematic: Omnipotential Core.

It is recommended to start your jump from the larger orb to the side of the room, not the one in the centre, as this is generally easier and quicker to traverse.

Applicable to PTR characters only: If you completed A Means to an End before All Ch 6 Symbols Found was added, you will not have flagged, which is required to see the additional Arrangements. You will need to create a brand new character instead and complete A Means to an End again.

Credit to Matjz for discovering its location, and Neryssa for finding the Arrangement.

I found a location where they don't succeed at knocking me off the "path". It's not very far but I hope it aids SOMEONE, anyone succeed at this.

First thing, the floor-orb at the dead center of the room is not a safe location from the Orbs. If you stand there reading wowhead you will come back to find yourself knocked off.

Jumping to the first Smallish Kinda orb is hard. The "landing" isn't really top center, it's a little closer to you, as if there's some donut around the top. Any variation in how fast you are going and you probably fall off. Numerous people on the related pages have described hacks including turning off every speed buff and doing this naked or in a tabard.

Walk forward to the two Tiny Size Orbs. There's a notch between them where you stick. At this location the orb runs into you (sounds like an odd "foomp" when you get hit, but you don't fall).

What I've not figured out is the entire path that gets anywhere upward. I've very little confidence in the few posts who say they succeeded because I can't tell if they're on the PTR and "I spammed a pop-jump and a goblin glider" isn't exactly giving me any good vibes about success chances for some joe who just wondered Hey What's This Locus Shift Node Over Here Do?

There is also a rumor that the Rondure room contains an additional item, but I've waved the camera around a lot (trying to wrap my mind around the travel pattern of the orbs) and I'm not seeing anything except the highest orb.
