    staging point questions

    sorry for the obtuse questions, but i don't understand how these work.

    how many are there?
    are they based on a one-to-one relationship with assault zones?
    if i do assault and take the runic portal, will it always send me to Mount Zhayolm?
    Is Mount Zhayolm staging point different from the other staging poitns, and if not, why did i get sent there when i had Lebros Cavern Assault Orders?

    as i understand it, once i walk to a staging point, and use the runic portal inside it to warp to town, i can forever and unlimited times warp back to and forth from it to and from the runic portal in town?

    i only walked to one, the Mount Zhayolm one for mission 1-2. as i understand it, i can walk to ANY of them (how many are there?) for mission 1-2? and at the same time, activate it for future teleports?

    what's confusing me is that when i got the Lebros Cavern Assault Orders i assumed i would get teleported to Lebros Cavern, but i went back to Mount Zayolm.

    i'm sure this sounds muddled and confused , but that's because i am confused about them lol. if anyone can clearly explain their function/purpose and how they work i would appreciate it

    Zone Name / Staging Point name
    Halvung > Mt. Zhayolm / Lebros Cavern
    Caedarva Mire > Arrapago Reef > Caedarva Mire / Dvucca Isle
    Caedarva Mire / Azouph Isle
    Caedarva Mire > Arrapago Reef / Ilrusi Atoll
    Mamook > Bhaflau Thickets / Mamool Ja

    Lebros Cavern is the Staging Point @ Mt. Zhayolm. You can warp directly to any staging point after picking up an assault IF you have teleported to Whitegate from the staging point.

    can i use the teleporter if i'm not doing assault?
    does Lebros Cavern zone serve any purpose in the game, other than assault?

    for mission 2-1, we walked to Mt Zayolm.
    then some random person invited me to do assault yesterday and we walked to Mamool Ja. so i guess i have access to those 2 staging points now but not the other 3?
    are there only 5 staging points total? how was that info discovered?

    If you are participating in Assault (have mission orders) the teleport to the staging point is free.

    ok i think i understand now:

    as soon as you do mission 1-2 you have access to all 5 staging points.

    costs 200 IP to teleport, unless youre doing assault.

    in which case it's free to teleport, but you can't leave the staging point, and you can only go to the zone of your assault mission.

    right?

    You only have access to whatever point you delivered supplies to for mission 1-2. You need to walk to the other four staging points on your own.
