How does the new teleport system work?

[Mithrielwielder]

If the old teleport item is not in your backpack you get an error message about it not being in your backpack, so no storage space is being saved. What is the point of this new system ? Seems to have no advantage over the old system but does have the disadvantage that you now need two clicks instead of one? I saw one post that said it is supposed to be a QOL improvement, but what is the improvement?

I just teleported to Ravenloft, then Feywild, then Saltmarsh, and then Isle of Dread having only the Sharn teleport item in my inventory. That worked fine for me. What items in particular did not work for you?

The 1 min cooldown now applying to all of them is seriously annoying, though.

I have the same experience as Dandonk. So if it doesn't work it would be character specific.

One thing to check: If you put the destination in a hot bar, make sure you keep the item you dragged the destination from in your inventory. IE: If you pull saltmarsh from the saltmarsh compass make sure you keep the compass. Pull all the destinations from the same item and you should be fine to get rid of the others.

I keep getting the message that I don't own the content. Anybody else experiencing this?

what zone are you picking?
I would imagine that for IoD right now since they have it shut down.

It's also possible that you have to drag the "new" item to your hotbar, to get a link to the upgraded version, rather than expect the "old" icon to do the job. Just a thought.

I get that if I click the Ravenloft one, but that's working as expected since I never bought ultimate Ravenloft to get the bottle of mist. All the others work fine with a single teleport item in my bag as I bought the ultimate editions of all the content and thus own access to those teleport items/locations. You don't gain access to anything that wasn't previously purchased; just a single source to use the ones you do own.

IoD takes you to the "town" so it should work.

Sharn and IOD work.

The others do not. Dragged a new copy to the toolbar, tried having it unlocked, ran the into quest back to Ravenloft, entered the Blood on the Vine but nothing works. Haven't tried with a newly made character. I don't have the ultimate verson of any expansion on the list so not sure what is happening.

Which of the previous teleport items do you own? Bottle of mist, tuning fork, etc?

If you don't have the ultimate version then they should not work. Right?

For the record, I pulled IoD, Saltmarsh, Ravenloft and Sharn Tavern destinations all from my bottle of mist teleport menu on to my toolbar. I threw away the compass, and IoD trinket and put sharn book into the bank. All four destinations work just fine from the hot bar. If I put the mist into my bank my hot bar mappings turn to a disabled bottle of mist and I have to reset them. SO for my character everything is working fine using the bottle of mist.

Correct. If you do not have the physical item that teleports you to the zone you cannot use the teleporter to get there even if you otherwise own the content. The error message shouldn't say "you don't own this content", which is misleading. It should say "you do not own the item that allows teleportation to this content".

If you didn't buy the ultimate pack which gives you the teleport item for that content, you can't teleport there using the item. It doesn't matter if you own the content or not.
