Q: Sigil has said that the premier dungeons in Vanguard will be huge, and that it may take a group weeks to fully explore one. Brad McQuaid stated that there will be transportation systems, possibly teleporters, set up throughout dungeons to move people around. How many premier dungeons are planned for release? How will the teleportation system work? Will dungeons have multiple exits and entrances?
A: Our premier dungeons do vary in size, based on level range and the intent for the area. Some places are utterly massive at the moment, like Stiirhad and Vol Tuniel; others are smaller.
There will not be a (standard) dungeon teleportation system. Specific areas may have a teleport gimmick set up. Vol Tuniel, for example has a large section beneath the main ruined Elven temple. If you have visited the bottom area and completed a quest, you will be granted an item that may be used at an altar in the swamp to teleport directly to the entrance of this area.
Some dungeons do have multiple entrances, it really depends on the area.
As for the number of premiers planned for release, I'm going to hold that one close to my chest. I'd rather not promise anything and have people be pleasantly surprised.
