| Question Title: | More portal gems? |
| Category: | Items |
| Question: | Since you can make one-use portal gems that take you to a defined spot, are you planning to make gems that portal you somewhere to the town they are bought in? I think it would be a good way to breathe life into some of the "dead" towns, by having such gems in the stores there, and not in the more popular towns. Even if they cost over 5k. It would also make characters without item magic more viable. |

| Answer: | As I explained elsewhere, if these items were made commonly available, they would only be sold at the Master Archmages, and to a limited set of towns. A better solution, now that I think on it, would be to add a few Portal Gems as very rare drops in the loot system. |
