Talk to the Team: Portals and Pads

[AmonGwareth]

Been a while since this topic was brought up, but given that I added a few more portals today I wanted to ask players where they felt more portals and/or pads were needed.

The three I added this morning are: Darvus, Kenaf Point, and Bridgehold.

I'm sure there are others that are needed. Where are they?

[Dracillion]

Isle of Ice.

[Guaran]

Isle of Ice.

The "Isle of Fire and Ice" port shows up on 2 different rings in Bristugo.

One of them should be changed to "Isle of Ice"

The Isle of Ice landing pad still exists. There are still ports that go to this pad. One at top of tower of sorcery, as well as some of the trandalar teleporters iirc.

There's no reason one of the Bristugo rings could not be fixed to point to this pad.

Island of Ice is in the Trandalar group at Bristugo.

Knossos

[Dracillion]

Wasn't the game massively screwed up without water last time they touched the pad?

Still, the pad still exists. Don't see why we couldn't keep the port at least.

I mean, it can't get any worse than the Morning Light woodworking station being you know, "activated."

[Machaeon]

Personally I would not mind having a pad out in Char being close to mobs, just having one out there at all would be a great relief (and would probably convince me to work on t4 lairshaping more). It's easy for a dragon like myself to fly out to anywhere in the area but I pity the people who are stuck running all that way just to get to some decent t4 resources (often with a lot of mob harassment on the way there and back if they don't know the /safe/ routes yet).
Keep up the great work guys! I'm super excited for some new portals and pads coming in!

[Sindala]

I think the difference would be that you don't get attacked on the way to Wolfs Paw from Mith's Anvil if you stay on the path.
If you do the same from Morning light to Meadowhill while on the path your attacked by both nasty pigs and depressed wolves.

Thought that was the perk of being in a secluded, harder to get to settlement. It's not a difficult run, and if you stay along the road you can avoid the monsters even at 50 speed. Or, be creative and dodge them. What difficulty is left?

[Daulnay]

Could we have a portal in Dalimond to the places in the Dalimond Peninsula? Dalimond feels like the regional capital, it should have decent transport connections.

Would it be possible to add a new pad list of dragon community locations, and put one of those portals in each dragon racial city, much like the Dalimond peninsula pad list?

But isn't that what Bristugo is for? Why would you need a second portal to all the places Bristugo can send you... in the next city over from Bristugo, not even a 2 minute walk away?

Don't all cities already have the dragon settlements under the guild section of the portals? Not sure why either would be necessary as they seem rather redundant.

[Arzel Rashemi]

A portal out in the middle of Dralk someplace such as Naka’jira, Desokul, or Char would be wonderful. There are a great amount of resources out there, but it is a painfully long trip back and forth to those resource areas.

I don’t know if this is a possibility, could we maybe get a portal that is closer to the WD?

Could we please have a way to reach the Observatory Outpost? It has a pad there, but no portal anywhere that leads to it.

^ that

I would also love it if not only bristugo had portals to dalimond peninsula places. Maybe Genevia too and cities?

Also a portal/pad in Pleasant Canyon and Isle of Fire, and a portal on Isle of Ice and Desert's Edge would be nice.

[Alisto]

A portal to the location of the Flame Disciple trainer at the tower of Wizardry. Pretty please :D

[Sindala]

How about a portal at Jeanne? Plenty of space for one and I just moved there ;)

Jeanne is really close to the portal at Crystal (300m) so no-go.

[Deelighted]

I hate to be a pest, but since there wasn't any response, I thought I should make another request for an out portal at Guild: Yumi. There's room for it around 28776,13938.

I know that Miyuki has an out portal, but it is located on the northern end of the guild properties. Yumi's in portal is located at the northern end of Yumi and so it's quite close to Miyuki.

If Yumi cannot get an out portal, would you at least consider moving Miyuki's out portal to the southern end of Miyuki?

Bridgehold - Amon, you mentioned that it was being added but there is not an out portal there. I've used the out portals at Darvus and Kenaf Port, but cannot find the one at Bridgehold.

[Klag]

Deelighted I know this will sound selfish, but I like the Portal right where it is..... that's one of the reasons I moved to Miyuki. We have to run from Yumi to get to our plots at Miyuki. Our guild would be very disappointed if it was moved. I would love to have a pad closer, but I can live with the one n Yumi.

Sindala Congrats on your Pad in Meadowhill:) looks like you'll have it next update, it's in Blight as I type....

[Terao]

Could we please have a way to reach the Observatory Outpost? It has a pad there, but no portal anywhere that leads to it.

You can reach the Observatory Outpost from Bristugo (Dalimond Peninsula).

Please add the destinations of Dalimond Peninsula to Genevia, and Genevia Islands to Bristugo (in my opinion one porting hub would be enough and genevia could be dropped)

Please add the destinations: Eastern Outpost, Imperial Outpost, New Trismus and the Resorts to Bristugo.

[Arzel Rashemi]

You can reach the Observatory Outpost from Bristugo (Dalimond Peninsula).

Thank you!! I never knew. It is the same with Wintervale, there is only one portal that takes you to these places, and that is in Bristugo. It makes it difficult to find them.

Case in point, I thought that Wintervale, being a gnomish outpost, could have been reached from both New Rachival and Bristugo the way that Delgarath is reached by both Aughundell and Bristugo. Not the case unfortunately.

Could you please add the destination of the Observatory to Dalimond, and add the destination of Wintervale to New Rachival or Aughundell?

Please add the destinations: Eastern Outpost, Imperial Outpost, New Trismus and the Resorts to Bristugo.

Agreed and signed. Please.

[AmonGwareth]

Isle of Ice and Fire are no-gos. Sorry. There is a pad and portal on the island between them.

Fixed Eastern outpost, Imperial Outpost, and Winter Vale.

T3 pads/portals are on the plan for the T3 revamp which is coming up very soon so will hold off on any of those (that includes one closer to the WD).

A pad out in Char is a good idea, though the real tricky part is that the communities out there are in the middle of monster spawns. So not easy to find a good spot, but its on my list and will keep looking.

Thanks for the feedback! Keep it coming.
