Portals.

I found a portal earlier today while exploring.  I am taking a guess that it is related to that door potion that has been implemented with the new potionmaking skill, but I was wondering if anyone knew exactly how long a portal of that nature would stay open.  Five minutes?  A gameday?  I can't find any information on it.

  • I was scanning some other posts on the forums and I THINK that the portal may be related to the glitchen DNA quest if it is an actual portal and not an interdimensional door thingy (I found one of the door thingies today and went in and it went to the wastelands).  I think, if it is what I think it might be, that the portal would stay open for the quest until you go through it, but I'm not sure.

  • I found a portal too - took me to the ancestral lands and back. It looked like a real door - not like the smokey spector that seems to be the DNA spots. All very mysterious :)

  • Found one in West Spice. It was a small glowing door. It goes to Manggai Mile, Andra.

  • If its a little door sort of hovering in the air then its from the Door potion. I was having fun making one or two yesterday myself. The first time I used the potion it created one door (in Groddle Heights) where I was and the other some place at random (a housing block with the swamp houses, must have been a new street as most were unsold). I teleported to somewhere in Groddle Forest and tried again and this time it linked the Groddle Forest door with the Groddle Hights door. Not sure how long they last but it was probably close to half an hour by the time I got bored and wandered off.

  • They are caused by door potion.  I used a bottle last night.  My first door linked from Salatu to somewhere in Polllokoo and people there came back and forth.   We opened another door in Pollokoo and it linked back to Salatu.   We then waited until the door expired (about 10 minutes)  and opened another door, this time to somewhere in the Ancestral lands.    

    Based on this experience I presume that when you open a door with this potion, the end point is the last endpoint where someone else opened a door.   I may very well be wrong, it needs more experimentation and that stuff isn't cheap.

  • The door in West Spice took me to Scribe's Weld, which just happened to hold a DNA spot for me.

  • WalruZ, your door only lasted ten minutes? The one I opened this afternoon lasted at least three hours.

  • Maybe it's related to the number of people who go through.  Just an idea.

  • perhaps it's durability is based on number of uses rather than length of time.

  • That could be, but I opened it on Cebarkul and watched a dozen or so people pop over and back.

  • I took the one from West Spice to Scribe's Weld, too. I promptly thanked the person who rezzed there right before me and he said. "Did I do that?".

  • My very first door portal test went into Ajaya Bliss was well. And people promptly spilled out into my once quiet neighborhood street. My next few went to various locations: Other housing blocks, middle of nowhere, etc.

    But the next jump... the next one will surely take me home!
