Antonica Evac

Qayr · 12-03-2007, 10:41 AM

I was in Antonica with my little group of friends and we evac'd (escaped or whatever it's called) to get from the druid portal to Qeynos. Two of our group (Dark Elf Warden and Defiler) ended up near Thundering Steppes and three (Ratonga Brigand, Dirge and Monk) ended up near Qeynos. The next time we tried it from a completely different area and the Monk/Defiler ended up near Qeynos while the Brigand/Dirge/Warden ended up near Thundering Steppes.

At first I thought the reason the group got split was because of our different races (rat vs de), but that didn't hold true for the second evac. So is this just a buggy zone? Or is there some other game mechanic at work? I'm assuming this is nothing new since this is an old zone so hopefully someone knows whats going on, thanks!

The evac is going to take you to a safe place. The ones that went to near Thunderring Steppes were Freeport folks so putting them next to Qeynos might not be considered safe.

Nopes... thats what I thought at first too but note the races and where each evac'd to. One of the dark elves got evac'd to TS the first time and to Qeynos the second. Oh, and we're all Freeps except for the monk btw.

Weird cause I always get evac'd to Qeynos.

I'd say you submit feedback on that, traditionally evils go near TS and good to Qeynos.

I've had the reverse happen in the commonlands

can be quite fun when half our low level group is evacced to the west freeport gate

Dark Elf evil forever here. Mentored to help guildee get pumpkin mask about 8 months ago; Guildee accidentally hit evac in first minute of fight... MT group all sent to Queynos Gate... Dead defiler. 8 months ago evac put me right at the guard tower NQ. Now, evac puts me at the tree where the betrayal quest guy is (or was??), about 200 feet from the guards.

Best friend is goody goody druid and we use the portal to Antonica and evac alot.. never have gone anywhere but to Queynos in 3 years.

BTW, we made it back and killled the pumpkin guy! Don't know who was more embarrassed guildee <<stricken from having evac on hotbar forever>> or dead defiler.

I also noticed this a while ago, they broke it when they fixed evac point in ant for evil classes on PVP servers.
