I don't see what was wrong with the need to get 'flagged' for a port. Making it an item you have to carry with you at all times (thus eating inventory space) *was* stupid though. I would support a non-classic implementation where you have to hail an NPC @ each of the spires to get flagged to receive the teleport instead of gathering the teeth.

FFXI did basically the same thing with telecrystals at the Crags. Had to make the run at least once before you could port to it.

I assume initially it was just a technical limitation, thus why they added the keyring as a solution later on.

I like old classic stuff like this. Anything that makes you complain about EQ and how long it takes to get something or do something. That's why we are all back to our home here in 99 instead of playing kid games like WoW.

Actually this tooth idea was kinda fun, and was part of the velious experience; getting that toof for each alt you had.

IN practise this was probably designed as a way to stop every one racing to NTOV on day one of expansion launch. Although on here am sure peeps have enough vel exp to be there and slaying dwagons within 24hs (assumin minimal crashes/patches)

No one was killing named in NTOV at Velious launch on Classic - people had no VP loot to speak of so they had to gear up with armor quests and easier raids first.

Tooth idea isn't fun. It's tedious nothing more. People confuse these two way too often.

As a champion of the bugs forum Daldaen, you should know it doesn't matter. It's classic, fun or not - therefore it has to be in game.

I should change my location to bugs forum... Some of these programs I use at work can take literally 30 minutes to calculate rendering my computer useless... Leading to lots of interneting on my phone.

I don't think it will change or be different here. I just stand by it was stupid and Verant agreed and removed it later down the line. Same with wind ports.
