Rift Portals

Are the rift portals working?

I have been to three different rift portals (including my faction - SL) and nothing happens.

I'm level 25 and I meet all the other requirements. Is there something I'm missing?

Not all the factions have active Nexi yet; SL, for example, is one of those that doesn't. We wanted to phase in planes as they're completed rather than wait until everything was done.

Also, not all portals are open to all players. The portals to the Nexi within a faction city are open only to members of that faction; there are portals to the same areas outside the cities which are open to everyone, but they require a bit more effort and exploring than the obvious ones

A number of portals were causing script errors. Some appeared to work, others didnt. Some may intentionally be one-way, but I couldnt tell from all the script errors.

I haven't gone back to these problematic portals. Have they been fixed? Do we need to make a list of them?

As far as I know, problematic portals have been fixed. Please let me know if you're still having errors.

As the planes become more complete, the planar structure will become more complete and apparent. Its rough form is 2 planes for each faction arranged around the central column of the Nexus, each plane on the left connecting with the plane above and to the right, the reverse for the other connecting to below and to the left.

The Nexus is a planar portal transport system constructed by a race long since forgotten. It also had the unfortunate side effect of acting as 'cracks' in the planes, trapping those who didn't bind to rift shards or who had problems respawning at their shards. Trapped there for eons, many of the citizens of your factions have gone insane...

Don't forget favoured race goes blind when subject to light, and is ECL +3 cause it has SR (that works [edit] 0% of the time against same effective level with Pentration, and 0% effective against 4 effective levels lower with Epic penetration [edit])

Life is good when you are so feared.

Well LA, RK, and AO are known to have working portals so far. RK is the only one that connects to two planes I know of.

As for SL, you don't have it all that bad, since the LA nexus isn't that far from Menzo. The RK nexus is fairly easy to reach as well.

that was when there was like 200 toons made in one day and it broke the portaling system...if you were already in a faction you could have someone kill you and respawn in. if you were brand new a dm had to move you. notice mothers little helper in there...and immaculatedeception. i think immaculate is TBD isn't it?

I tried a couple of the portals that were previously broken and they're working fine now. Thanks!
