Voltage Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 (edited) I am not understanding what these teleports are for exactly. If you really want to optimize mission speed (for Nova specifically), you can subsume Decoy and use Savior Decoy to teleport yourself all the way back to the Cetus Gate after intentionally dying after grabbing the toxin canister. "Nightwave Skip" is also a very old strategy that still provides some time-gain by using Nora's Dialogue to override Vay Hek/Konzu/Lotus/etc. to progress bounty stages. In a team (preferably atleast duo with Wisp), you can use this to force the toxin mixer to spawn either south of Twin Horns or southwest of Hek's Stiletto. This toxin mixer spawn can then be used to take advantage of a spawn manipulation by standing at a lake shaped like the African continent south of The Seethe before the stage switches from 2 to 3 (toxin mixer to drone escort). Doing these steps forces the drone escort stage to spawn on a specific rock just south of Renthi Spring which affords a Nova with ~8 seconds left on the toxin mixer stage to pre-place 4 specific portals to give the drone a direct path right to the extraction point at the boil. This completes the drone escort stage in just a few seconds. Edited November 14, 2023 by Voltage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teleports do not go through walls, unless DE spagetti coding makes the textures somehow passable. Edited November 14, 2023 by Zakkhar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, they do in specific spots, but I would be weary about encouraging out of bounds gameplay as opposed to spawn manipulations or utilizing working mechanics. There is a contextual difference between unintended usage of mechanics and exploitative behavior. In the case of "spawn manipulations", this has been used for years in Eidolons for quick charging lures to allow for clean 6x3s and is currently advertised by more than one content creator/partner.

The_Royal_Elf_Mika Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 i tried using Nova for plague star, but the drone kept trying to run back to where i teleported it. so i decided Volt was easier and more consistent 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit:(atleast im 99% sure it does, have been doing Plague Star with a Volt/Wisp combo) Edited November 15, 2023 by (NSW)Royal_Elf_Mika Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
