Game Mechanics: Missing teleporter in Plane of Hate

[ergo]

There should have been a teleporter in Plane of Hate added before the release of Kunark to allow melee the ability to leave the zone without need of potions, ports or death:

- A teleporter has been placed within the Plane of Hate in order to
give non-casters a way out of the zone besides death, potion, or group
teleport.

Today's patch was primarily comprised of server-side changes in
preparation for the release of EverQuest: The Ruins of Kunark. Only one
gameplay-affecting issue was updated as a result of this patch:


This should have been in for years.

Nice catch Ergo assuming the dervs agree and can verify. One more step toward a more classic game experience! Re-invented (or re-imagined) 1999 EQ would be a more accurate server description imo)

Just installed my orginal Kunark CD looking for something else and found this in a patch file on it.

There's one minor issue with Paineel that we neglected to mention in the patch message. At the entrance to the city, there is an elevator that must be activated with a key. The "keyhole" in this instance is a rock that is on the ground near the lift. A minor bug exists that does not allow people to click on the rock to activate the elevator. In order to activate the elevator, players will need to hold the key on their pointer, hover it over the rock, and press the "U" key. This will be fixed in a future patch.

In addition, the patch message made reference to a teleporter being placed within the Plane of Hate. The information provided concerning this teleporter was incorrect. The information should read as follows:

- A bug exists within the Plane of Hate that sometimes causes people to be transported to an inactive portion of the zone, from which there is no exit. A teleporter has been placed within this area to transport people who are trapped back to the entrance of Hate.
