That would be a bit too strong. I think that transporting you to the nearest (or whichever) portal would be enough, so you could just save the time needed to go via krul and varas...

What I would really like, though, would be a "beacon" - a potion that you drink and it makes the location you're currently at and allows you to use any portal to get THERE later. You know, one "custom" portal target per player, perhaps lasting x hours...

I don't see how transporting to the nearest portal is any different from just creating a potion that allows you to insta-portal. Isn't that the same thing? And yes a way to transport back to your current location would be great also, but that could be another potion.


Read the original post :). He wants to travel "to any area", not to "nearest portal". The latter I would agree with, the former seems a bit too strong for me.

I don't think we should have an instant portal to anywhere or to a nearest portal....simply because travelling to Veras dungeon only initially takes 2 minutes, and effectively the easiest portal to get to.

One thing I'm saying this is, because SE hunting would just get all the more easier....Not that SE hunters don't already need to travel a lot, I just don't see why it needs to get so much easier....

Going to Krul Island and then to Veras Dungeon isn't really that bad. You can't expect to have everything handed to you on a silver platter, sometimes you have to actually make an effort. If you can't make that small effort, I can't imagine what else you wouldn't do.

Did you know that there are likely over 2000 rouge black holes in our galaxy alone. Each of them can reach very high speeds, even in space terms, are each capable of destroying anything in their path, and are invisible. Well, goodnight!

The potion could be expensive

Start the bid at about a million gold :twisted:

Just to play the other side of this. Don't you think HCS knew how long it would take to get places when they built the maps? PITA as it might be I think it's intended.

As a side note, this would give the rich SE hunters even more stam to use chasing down SE's. About the only thing that slows them down is the several hundred stam they use running back to portals from some of the realms. I can't imagine it would be more expensive than 150 stam and that's what it would save in many of the realms.

Maybe a "Potion of Returning" which will take you to the last portal you used?

It could take 25 stamina to use the potion, but you would save stamina not having to walk all over to get to that portal ...

Another potion could be "Potion of Exiting" which takes you to the main map of which ever area you're in, like Krull Island if you're in the mountian area, or umm the other maps, but not just back to Krull ... it lets you exit from deep inside an area without having to go back to Krull.
