How to PORTAL WITH METAL

You cant portal with metal. Forcing you to cart stuff by the sea. Only you can.

Into

For some reason, I suspect forcing the player to use the boats, you cannot portal with metals. Except there is a way.

The way..

So the game saves your position. And your inventory. Your character is independent of your map. So, this can be used in MP or SP, I use SP for ease.

Step one:
Have your main map that you play. Mine your metal. Step near your portal. Log out.

Step two:
Have a second map, say called cheese. Have a small base with storage. Log into this map, dump ore in box. Log out.

Step three:
Log back into your main game, portal to your base. Log out.

Step four:
Log back into your cheese map and grab your ore. Log out.

Step five:
Log back into your main map. You are now at your base, with all your ore. This is quicker and safer then moving by sea, even with the longboat.

Conclusion

Cheap game mechanics deserve to be circumvented. It makes no sense (other than forcing you to travel by sea) to bottleneck ore transport like this. So work around the system. You can also use this method to bulk transport lots of ores overloading your inventory as you don't physically move much during transfers.

Hoping devs make it you can portal metal to your base.

See this kinda of game breaking exploit just makes me want to use cheat in order to save time by simply spawning whatever i need at my base.

That's cool, but then why are you saying you have to cart metal by sea?

[thethomasgeorge]

Yeah thats what I have, a base next to a trader. I'll go there to smelt and store valuables with none of the bosses killed. My other main bases are there to test different building layouts to see which is most effective against higher end game attacks.

Isn't the intended affect that you just build a second base at the portal? I'm not even saying that's a strategy, I think that is literally the intended thing that devs plan on players doing.

"Firstly, no one is complaining except the crybabies who seem to seek out this guide just to whine."

Well you made my point about "F the logic in comments" - No one is complaining but someone is.. Yeah logic of that sentence :D

[Azeroth]

The post is not intended to lower the Information about easier way to deal with getting transport, but someone pointed it out.. why not use console command rather than log in log out if you wish to "cheat" yourself out of struggle. Its called "Exploit" but thats fair, do how you whant, what I pointed out is ppl telling how the game should look beacuse it takes more time and effort - its survival game but whatever. Your the author and you can't read what I wrote but I am not self aware.. ok.. I QUOTE 1 OF YOUR COMMENTORS:

"game should just have this feature optional. So for ppl that like to play hard core or for a competitive pvp server.
But mostly in SP people would rather not have the metals blocked."

But all comments are simular I did not say your "help" is bad - I just pointed out the Whining of PPL complaining how the game SHOULD be coz they are to much bothered to do it normaly. Its ok to use your "help" but whining about the game is just plain ignorant.

"don't complain about how the game should be like"

Firstly, no one is complaining except the crybabies who seem to seek out this guide just to whine.

Secondly, look at that quoted sentence. Now look at what you're doing. The lack of self awareness is astounding.

Thirdly, you can log in/out with your inventory. THIS IS PART OF THE GAME. I'm playing it according to the rules that the developers set up. Without cheats or cheating.

To all the comments - you know that like +/- ship transport is 10 - 15 min ? Let us be honest you are not traveling the whole Globe for resources and the biggest problem is just Iron coz of swamp.. what the actual F bomb are you talking about not having time ?. And I do know what Im talking about coz I play the game. That is also intent of the Game ! To make things they way they should be.. As someone sayd you don't like it, use "cheats" but don't complain about how the game should be like.. Damn bunch of whiners. Exploring and finding takes more time than the Damn transport itself, gathering Ingridients to make Potions - Cooked food - Roasted Food - Gathering wood etc.. those take whole few days cycles that last 21 min each day.. O_o F the logic in comments..
