Summary

Moongates allow players to travel across vast areas instantly. If you come upon a Moongate, it is always wise to click on it first to investigate where it might lead. Shown in the image below is a Town Gate as an example. There are several types of gates here on Outlands:

Name Description

Player
These gates are cast by players so be careful entering them if you do not know the player or destination

Town
Located outside of every township, these gates remain open constantly providing ease of travel to all townships as well as The Arena

Dungeon
Found scattered throughout the dungeons of Outlands, these gates are effectively 'exit' gates only, for expediting your return to town from within the dungeon

Death
Seen only by dead players, these gates are scattered throughout dungeons much more than Dungeon Gates, potentially saving time when trying to recover your body's contents

Event
These gates, typically found at town banks, will transport players to shard events that are currently underway


Blocking Moongates

Griefing: You will not do anything that interferes with the ability of other Outlands players to enjoy playing the game in accordance with its rules. This includes, but is not limited to: excessive verbal harassment, constant negativity, extreme vulgarity, intentionally trapping players in locations that force them to use the Help Stuck system to escape, blocking public moongates, dungeon moongates and dungeon level transitions with impassable objects, interfering with or blocking movement during shard wide Events beyond reason, using ghost scouts to monitor dungeons and specific spawns, repeated/systemic attempts to scam other players, and choosing obscene character names or guild titles.

  • Players cannot place any Impassable objects on the ground within 4 tiles of a Public Moongate or Dungeon Teleporter
