Deep Blue Portal

Postby Abhorr Deathkisse » Thu Oct 13, 2005 12:54 am

You are able to use the deep blue portal anywhere in Valorn, and you will be instantly transported to the Helful hints sign in Northen Dundee (where the portal always takes you).

Kilican Isle, the back room of the inn (where the encahtner merchant is).

As it says to the left......I talk WAY too much. ;)
And yes, I am fully aware that currently it says so to the right, rather than the left, which used to be the location for said line, but I am simply too lazy to change it for you.

Ah I think see what you're trying to say. You mean in the same way you can use Scooter from any location (If you save the URL) then you can pet the puppy from wherever? So this is something potentially people could use.. Getting out of trouble and easy travel back to Dundee...

lol yes I couldn't figure out what you meant either.

just like Korrith said, it's a bug that could be used to escape no matter where you are or incidentally which alt you are playing.

I can reproduce this.... If you save the URL for the Deep Blue Portal in Kilican, you can enter it from anywhere in Valorn.. You end up arriving back in Dundee each time.

This is still a problem.

Also...I hate to say this, but can this be done with the Forge portal also? I would think that if it could, anybody could get a UW this way.

Obviously this would be exploiting a bug and anybody who has been around long enough to get a UW should know better anyhow.

Hmm. Interesting Xan. If the portal is the same, it might be possible. But if it's a new item that generates each time, it can't be done.

I just thought that the Gods should have it brought to their attention. I don't want somebody taking advantage of that.

I am unsure as to whether this has been fixed, but my statement about the Forge Portal is no longer a worry. I tried it today upon happening across the Portal. I waited for an hour, and then tried it.

I received:

Xanthias tries to leap through a quickly vanishing portal but misses.

So I think it isn't an issue with that one.
