Addition of teleporters...Good or Bad

   Seems next patch will also see the inclusion of various teleporters throughout telon. How do people feel about this?Myself , I dont particularly like it. I would wait first to see how traveling with boats and flying mounts affect traveling times and then evaluate what needs to be done to improve traveling times. Curious to see how it works out though.

 

GAMEPLAY NOTES

- Riftway Stones have appeared at several altars throughout Telon and will allow faster transit through their magic. Scholars believe that these stones have simply been “out of phase” with the rest of Telon since the time of the cataclysm. In order to use a Riftway Stone to teleport you must acquire a Riftway Shard – now available at general goods vendors.

- Travelers must attune at each Riftway Stone in order to return to said stone via another Riftway Stone on the same network.

- There are currently three known Riftway Networks – each stone in the world belongs to one of these three networks.

- The Riftway Stones at New Targonor, Ahgram, and Tawar Galan are only destinations – and may be reached via any Riftway Network.

- "You have gained experience" messages will now show the amount of experience and the source (e.g. group, fellowship, etc.). When regaining lost xp or debt, it will also say "you recover" instead of "you gain."

- The unicorn and shadowhound mounts are now set to their correct stats: Speed 70 and Stability 50.

- Endurance costs for large and medium melee damage over time attacks have been lowered.

    Well I canceled my account soon after the introduction of WoW death penalty, so they might as well add the Battleground to complete the opera as far as I am concerned.



    I can imagine alread millions of players deserting WoW in order to play Vanguard.

    I do feel it was a smart move to add the requirement of a purchased component (Riftway Shard

    I don't mind it because it isn't like it takes you to all kinds of locations.  I can, however, see the porters in Khal, NT, Martok, etc going away soon after the introduction of this.

    You thought right, teleporters are ingame, these Riftway Stones seem to be another addition to teleporting as you have read just like everyone else
