The wormhole method

This is a little trick my friend taught me a good while ago. It is not a cheat or a bug, and it has been around since the reset button was added to the quest/ wilderness panel. It is not extremely useful, I practically never use it, but at times someone could have use for it.

A place where it could be nice to know is in Sands. Example Chains of flame or ADQ1. This is how you do it:

1. Person A runs out to the quest and enters. The rest of the party waits outside wilderness (or anywhere else, just not in the wilderness).

2. Person B resets wilderness.

3. Anyone wanting to reach the quest quickly clicks on the door to the wilderness, opens and holds window.

4. Person A exits the quests and as a result creates a wilderness entry point.

5. The people holding window clicks on enter and are teleported to the new entry point which will be outside the quest.

6. Reset quest and enter.

As you can see, this can be practical if you need to get your party to the quest quickly, but it doesn't work if you like me prefer to let people join runs ip.

P.S. Yes, I know, most of you here probably find this old news. Well, I wanted something to add, so there you go.

Interesting question. I believe the problem with e.g. Sub T and The manufactory is that when you exit the raid you do not end up outside the raid, but outside the wilderness.

I realized, my reply wasn't well thought through. Except for that issue, in the Manufactory you have the different area instances before you reach the raid. I highly doubt the game can teleport you between instances. But you can always try.

I was wondering how long it would take before someone posted about this.  In the end it was far longer then I expected. Smiley

You're deranged. No one is going to go through all that for some pikers ;p

I don't think naming names would be a good thing for me to do, but I'd pretty much add anyone who's a know-it-all dick on the list.� Even if they are sometimes intelligent with their opinions, the way they state them in long, "i'm a lawyer at trial"-type posts makes me want to punch them in the face.� They act like whiney babies with god complexes and then freak out if someone so much as breathes criticism in their direction.

Usually my response if someone asks me to use the method is "just run". Because to use it, I'd have to wait for them before starting ADQ1, and in that time I would have been half way done with the quest or more.

It was semi practical when farming for the spell storing ring, though.

This was the easy way to farm the new 3BC items quite a few updates ago.  Loot chest, enter nearby quest, have someone reset UI from tavern, load back in at quest Smiley

This also makes skipping wilderness areas handy, far easier then it sounds, can teleport all party members to the person waiting outside the quest.
