Teleporting trick...
I shouted for a Teleport and the WHM who offered performed a neat little trick. I ended up alone (o.O) in Xarcabard, while he stayed behind in Jeuno.

I just thought I'd share with all White Mages who perform Teleporting services.

At 75% of his casting, he zoned...

That's it. :D

I don't know how CLOSE he was to the zone (Mog House in this case), but feel free to experiment. Saves you the trouble to Teleporting yourself as well, and having to Warp back.

Re: Teleporting trick...
Tele-taxists have been doing this since before I started playing though (almost 3 years ago).

But it's still is a nice trick if you tele someone near zone.

Re: Teleporting trick...
Well, I've been playing for that amount of time and this was the first time I've seen it done.

Re: Teleporting trick...
Seems to me you might have to work on the timing though, just so you don't end up zoning and screwing up the casting of your spell. I don't know, I think I'll have to try it though.

Re: Teleporting trick...
Mine is even better.

My Whm Mule doesn't have XCB crystal xD

She ends up where she casts everytime.

Re: Teleporting trick...
Just don't do this if you have customers in your party headed to two different tele-points. Some of your customers might be miffed that their tele-taxi driver isn't there to take them to their final stop

Re: Teleporting trick...
"Oh, why yes officer, traffic was too heavy on the Whitegate-Mea-Xarcabard crystal line so I decided to stay in my HP."

...

"Well, I'm sorry if passengers don't know how to travel from Mea to Xarcabard, going there just wasn't MP-cost effective for me.

AND I didn't even charge them for the tele to Mea, they even ended on the right region of Vana (kinda) for free!"




I'm thinking on starting a career as a TSP (Transportation Service Provider).

Re: Teleporting trick...
I have it perfected. I stand right next to the zone line and as soon as my toon's hand raises (from spell cast), I run to the zone. I usually have it so close that he takes no more than three steps to zone.

This is most useful in situations where I am teleporting somebody but I want to stay where I am.

Example: I'm in Sandy doing WW guild items, someone is shouting Teleport-Mea 10k, but my HP is in Aht Urhgan. I want to stay in Sandy to finish my work, but I'd also like to collect an easy 10k. I meet them at the nearest zone, collect my money, do this trick, and be on my merry way.

I like to joke that I'm going to start a BLM teleport service.

Re: Teleporting trick...
It is a pretty useful trick...however I didn't know about it until a friend told me, very nice when you have lots of competition for teleports.

However, It's kind of a bother trying it in Whitegate. It's so laggy outside the Mog House, sometimes it messes up and I get teleported anyways, or I go too early trying to beat the lag and end up just zoning

Re: Teleporting trick...
I never heard that before, I can see it being pretty useful, I often have to refuse requests because my hp is elsewhere and I need to stay where I cam. Thanks for sharing.

Re: Teleporting trick...
I know someone who leveled his mule to 42Whm/21Blm, got all the scrolls for the Holla, Mea, Dem, Yhoat, Altep and Xarcabard and just never got the Tele-Crystal. He doesn't even have to bother with zoning or such.... that's just a bit farther than I think most would take it, but it works for his tele'ing purposes, which is the only reason he leveled his mule to 42 in the first place XD

Re: Teleporting trick...
I heard that they somehow removed it, so I'm happy that its still there, I was going to try it once. (actually, I tried casting warp while casting tele, Almost worked, needed like .5 seconds left lol)




Yay, Ty for this Eohmer~

You can't cast two spells at once.

Maybe he thinks about interrupting the first one while starting the 2nd one.
Still doesn't make sense though since the first (interrupted) one won't do anything to him.
