Mini Teleports inside of Instances

We all know that clerics and wizards and every other magic class is slow as hell (veno exempted) and waiting on them is a pain. I propose that, like in TW, Devs put in binding posts once you get a certain distance into a bh instance and hop into a teleport at the beginning. Saves time for everyone and cuts out the nubs that like to afk with a distance click on a far wall ahead of them.
PWI: Where not only are you judged for what you say, but how you say it. Keep up the grammar. Respect.

    I don't mind waitin' on 'em...b:pleased
    But yeah, this idea is great in case some squad members don't have much time. Would be fine, too, if they give the slower classes a different Blessing which still gives them +10 Atk/Def lvl, but also a little speed buff. :)

    Well... idk about flying pets. That veno flying pet glitch that ppl get banned for... eh... and embracing would be nice. If its limited to just the beginning where the 'ports are. Bluenames could use something to get chi once inside a cave. Some dont have the invisible invincible mob to beat on. XD

    Yeah, I definately agree that clerics/wizzies/psychics should get some kind of speed boost buff. Almost every day someone **** me about being slow. Though that might be also a cause from flying to dungeons. I don't want to waste extra 30-60k a day for my bhs since the buy in already is quite costy. b:chuckle

    Also when I'm in FC or some other place where the barb is in trouble and I need to rush to save him, I need to use holy path to do that. Why bms/sins have a smexy running speed boost buff even when they don't actually need it? x_x Clerics need to save lives.. So far I need to use my genie's stamina for it.

    just pick them all up at once so your waiting on everyone else b:surrender you save yourself money on tping as well
    though a +speed bonus on the blessing would be nice for the psy/wizzy/cleric's buff box

    Very interesting and good idea. I know we've all been there, having to wait on us slow mages. I would definitely see how binding teles would help and would be very effective.

    Actually, the problem can be mitigated if you're just smart about how your squad plays. The instant a mob dies, the slow characters move on to the next mob. The fast characters stick around to pick up loot (they should be able to pick up everything before anyone runs out of range).

    Instead what I frequently see is mob dies, fast characters like barbs run off to next mob because they like fighting stuff, cleric sticks around to pick up loot because they like supporting the group. Then everybody waits for the cleric to catch up. This is the worst possible way you could do it.

    Or mob dies, barb picks up loot, and the cleric and wiz stand around waiting until the barb is finished, then follow after him once he starts running.

    @LongKnife: Rofl, I couldnt quite remember what the other one was. I dont play it for the simple reason, it reminds me of a wiz with a lot of -channeling gears. Imo, psy should have a rez.

    @FateMakerr: Would cost money for those consumables? And also, would be available to all classes. I wouldnt mind them... I kinda want a more even plane for speed.

    @Xpence: That'd be great. But, as before, everyone would get them. Like Barbs need to be any faster... especially the stupid ones that run ahead into a pile of Petaliis/magic mobs in general.... and of course, the cleric is about a mile or two behind, cursing their lack of speed or lack of stamina on their genie, etc etc lol! You get it. ^^

    @Solandri: That would be ideal. But any experienced player knows that there are just some very... not so smart ppl in the game and you always end up with someone in the squad that screws everything up. That tip helps, but doesnt account for stupidity. lmao

    *sigh* Covered that. Read, would you? There is Cooldown, stamina and a load of other reasons why Binding Posts would be far more effective. Mostly just money.

    LOL Guardian Light is a joke. Yay, I run at 5.6 now. Costs 1 spark, almost 3mil in apocolypse pages and mediums inks, 1 mil spirit. Golly gee. But I DO see your point. I would take a veno summer sprint any day. Talk about class envy, right?b:surrender Eh, I like the speed boost class req on dominance blessings. Still want the binding posts. XD

    So basically we need this feature to handle the stupidity and/or impatience of people?

    Now even running in an instance has become a challenge to players?

    Why not simply have the mobs and boss come at the squad in waves once you enter the instance. That way nobody needs to work too hard to move their toons itself.

    In any case, guess its worth a shot.
