The way you could vortex around the game pre-rest just ruined it in a way as no-one had to walk around any more. We try and not let that come back and limit the current vortex gate's abilities alot.

Why not just remove it then? I can't think of anywhere where its useful, so remove it and add in a better, more useful spell. Or make vortex gate the way it used to be, but with fewer TP locations and a huge mana cost ;D

Why's that? I don't think its a good idea to let new players waste gold buying it. Considering your title used to be 'newbie helper' you don't do a very good job of it.

HER? lmao, hes such a good staffer you didn't even know hes male. I don't see the reason for vortex gate. It should either be removed or changed, nobody uses it so why waste space with it? Unless of course its been used in the new mage area ;D

uh, wheres the her come from? And why would someone calling me a her mean I'm not a good staffer? Don't try and attack me on the forum, either on game (I've been uncloaked the last 8 hours) or take it straight to the admins as it's been said many times before.

I doubt the admins will remove it but I'll mention this thread to JLH. He'll probably say he wants more suport for it to be removed before he removes it though so post your thoughts.

I didn't mean it as an attack, although reading back at it it looks a lot like one lol. I think I meant that if you were such a good staffer, wouldn't someone know a basic fact like your male?

Harath, you really need to calm down a bit.
For a start, to level a mage to 30 you have to use vortex gate. Clearly you've not looked around the game enough to see the uses of the spell, if the spell had no purpose i would have removed it ages ago. Vortex gate is also one of Pandilex's favourite spells, and his upcoming areas are bound to make good use of it, where role playing and intelligence is required to get through it rather than brute force and ignorance :)

ah crap, i hate puzzles :(

and no, i've never leveled a mage to 30, ive trained one to about 27 then stopped, sold it and bought an arch.

vortex gate also used to be one of my spells, till it got changed. I used to love teleporting around with my level 29 mage pre reset.

even with the one purpose it has its still not a very good spell, its useless untill level 29, where you use it once.. and thats it. should be good enough that people will consider using it for something.

Im done with that area totally . . . we took 20 crits between 2 of us . . . and a mosh started . . . then crits started dropping that were full of mana . . .  

Then crits lagged out got white screens and we ended up losing all 20 crits there . . .  plus tons of mana

So we wen't back with half mana to try again . . . went back onto square soon as one crit got on the square which had 60+ crystals on there we just lagged out completely and ended up getting white screens again . . .

and they again all died  :(

But back onto topic there are other vortex gates in the game that I use frequently . . .  

And you don't just need it to lvl a mage to 30 either . . . lvl 26-29 also you need it for

1 question who has time really to lvl a mage to lvl 30 :|

Seeing that there are quite a few arch mages in the game, I'd say several.

Im soon to get Despair to level 30 for the second time (2 different crits same name)

mage training isnt that bad once you pass level 25 it goes really quick all you need is to know how/where to train
