There has been info on lootable Rune stones, with long bind and cast times.

"Recall runes (not what they called them but I will) you have to go to the location and mark it. Then you can recall to that location from the rune. You will lose these if you are killed."

They are also very helpful if you need to bring a large amounts of troops to one of your cities closest to the other guild you are sieging. After storing the runes in the bank of that city, the troops can form an attack against the enemy sieged city. When the die, they'll respawn to their further off cities, however, they can simply take out their runes out of the universal bank sense they banked it at that city close to the enemy guild.

What a devilish strategy! Universal banking is not present in game, is it?

Yeah i think they added it because of RL vs gameplay issue. It would have been too hard to run back to that original spot. Something along those lines.

Well for one the guild would have to allow you access to their bank. There would need to be one close to the guild your attacking. And you still going to have a good walk. It would just be easier / smarter to bind to the closer guild stone then to try that trick. Cause you have to carry the runes with you. They are semi rare and very expensive. (I know I know expensive is just a ratio and will go away after time) Could cost a pretty penny in terms of reagent needed, and have some long cast time.

Not to mention look at it this way.

You get sent home, open your bank get out your grab and go pack of armor. Equip it, find your rune you took an hour to make, between travel and bind time. Take the 1min or so to cast recall zap to the close city. Run to their bank, bank the rune stone, then still run back out to the seige area another 15 mins away.

OR a smart person would set up a rune network.
Which is way fucking better and smarter then your idea.

Greetings Noxx!

There will be Runes (like gating to your bind point type things) and portals to certain dungeon areas.

The runes, as far as i understand, will be tough to get so people won't be using them all the time. Long long cast time, cost lots of money and if you die anyone can loot your rune to port themselves to your bindpoint.

The portals from various points to a certain dungeon. No idea on how many dungeons will have this and where the portals will be. But they have said that if you want to get into PVP the fastest, this is the way to do it. Kinda like the W word battlegrounds.
