Teleporter Designs and Zones quicksheet

[insome1]

Id thought Id share a few teleport ideas and give a list of zones for people who may not have it.

 

Quick tip: You can sort zones by alphabetical order A-E, F-M, N-R, S-T(z) for easiest use.

 

List of all zones.

Would love to see yours.

[ShardWarrior]

Very cool!  More and more I find myself using the Interdimensional shard to combine with other objects to use as transports.  I used rowboats on a lake for the dojo base I built.

 

 

I am moving away from using the actual teleport devices.  They are just too huge for my liking.  Right now, I am working on one where the shards are placed in the cockpit of the jet plane vehicles. 

[EmperorSteele]

I don't label mine, since I'm the only one who uses my base. Lets me keep things "simple"

The CoH game is the main Paragon City Maps (Atlas, Kings, Steel, Talos, PI, etc). CoV is the Rogue Isles, the first pinball machine is co-op zones, and the furthest pinball machine is hazard zones.

Also in this picture: the computer can be clicked to let you shop online (aka a vendor) and the treadmill will let you "train" (ie, level up trainer). Both required NPCs are hidden in the wall.

As an aside, your list will have to be updated when the next patch comes out (because they'll include Praetoria and the Shadow Shard)! There's still only 38 zones, so you can still get away with 4 telepads, but I think the letters might have to be tweaked (more zones start with P than any other).

 

[insome1]

Well, I was able to compile a new list. It looks like the 4 teleports labeled A-E, F-M, N-R, S-T are still able to be used with only the additional zones to be added. It looks like there are only 38 zones total.

[EmperorSteele]

Well, -technically-, Praetoria IS another dimension, so you could lump it with the other "Extradimensionals" for 10 teleport destinations in one teleporter!

[EmmySky]

It isnt the most efficient as far as using fewer porters but it makes stuff easy.   I have red side on one porter, gold side on one porter, two for blue city zones, one porter for hazard zones which will include shadow shard, and a last porter for co-op zones. 

[Freedumbite]

Finally got around to doing the porters in my personal Zen themed base.

[Freedumbite]

...and I'd recognize those Funky porters anywhere! Those were my inspiration for the ports in the Indo Hub 😉

[Garble]

I wish they'd increase the number of beacons that cabe be linked to one portal.  Khalista Wharf is the odd man out. 

[Olly]

How do you manage to get the beacon names to sort? Specifically, I want Perez, RWZ, Striga, and TV in alphabetical order but they insist on going: Perez, TV, Striga, RWZ...

Unfortunately you can't. Each beacon has a unique ID number and they are listed in that order when displayed.

Here's my solution:

I went with a pretty standard split for my portals.

 

Redside, Neutral (including Praetoria), Blueside, and Hazard Zones

 

 

However, I couldn't get everything to fit everywhere, with the new Shadow Shard portals. So I had to come up with a solution. Luckily my Incarnate Lore pets (storm elementals from the Storm Palace) were able to help! Both of them contain portals to all four Shadow Shard zones.

 

[stealthnight]

Just the major ones, Hero and Villain side, nothing fancy or complicated.

Here was what I came up with...  This was before I added the other room details but you can stand in one spot and access everything.

[Flashtoo]

Wow, Plasmic, that must've been a bitch and a half to get the beacons to attach to the correct porters!

 

I've posted this elsewhere as well but here's how I do it in the Dauntless Reverie base - color-coded by zone type (with blue zones taking up two teleporters, one of which is dedicated to zones like The Hollows and Croatoa that have their own dedicated stories):

It actually was pretty easy...  I thought it would be,  but when I moused the beacon over the shard, the shard's box glowed yellow so I placed and sunk it.  I was placing them directly on the shard, so I think the beacon had no problem recognizing the attachment. 

 

Only problem I had was between my ears...  I tried to check them all, but my hero alignment wouldn't allow me to look at the villain destinations, so I thought they weren't right, despite them showing in the attachments..  Deleted,, redid it, same thing...    SMH

 

Also, have to give credit to @Dacy, this is kind of derivative of her ship's porters.  Soo many creative and bright people building bases.
