Umbral Plains Teleporting problem

[Evyl Lilguy]

I tried to use the Normal Zone Teleporter to go to Umbral Plains and got stuck in a loop loading Umbral Plains and then loading The Arena, then reloading Umbral and Arena. I never fully loaded either one, but appeared to underground in Umbral all the time. I believe another had the same problem noted in " Stuck Character" posted in January. I haven't tried from Maiden's Eye, but suspect problem is with teleporter unless I missed an update...

Was too late to edit post, but when I tried to enter Umbral Plains from Maiden's Eye I was kicked to ME entrance (succor point?).

Same problem with TIPT, and edit...

Well problem appears solved, today someone finally told me they are level locked. Strange they are still on Normal Zone Teleporter.

Thanks for reporting this.

I think that UP is still on the normal fairy is an oversight. UP (and Tipt) was customised late on but Elyse (the normal zone fairy) was created way back at the beginning and I guess it's quite a fringe set of circumstances that would lead to someone attempting to visit via this method before hitting the required level to access it. So no one ever realised it needed to be deleted from Elyse's list

I've removed this zone (and Tipt and one other that's progression locked) from Elyse's list now.

As an aside, we're shortly going to revamp THF and THV hubs, along with the method of navigating the world. So this all may change.

I tried UP because I often grind there in my 60s. I tried Tipt trying to find a higher level zone to grind to 70. Because I am an Ogre(or maybe just old) I confused PoV with PoJ, and I hate the latter,,,

We've identified that there's a bit of a leveling gap between 59 and 70. There are three zones to do from 55+ but I'd say they're not good for leveling up those last few levels. Quite a lot of players go to Kurns (it was somewhat Revamped many years ago but has no custom content) to level up but this isn't ideal.

We're planning a new zone that'll give custom content from levels 65 to 70. Plus, at some point soon, all non custom zones will be fully populated with various levels of difficulty (and eventually loot appropriate to that difficulty). So there should always be options for players at any level range to get exp and loot.

We also want to change the way the server handles zoning through restricted zones (it used to just block the zoning rather than do a zone loop of death, so we'll fix that).
