Need Help Finding Portal

[Cabranth]

Hello again, everbody.

I've been running around in the High Elf region trying to click on all the Portals before moving on to the next region, and I'm having a devil of a time finding this one Portal.

I've seen it in both the Portal Map here and the World Map at Sacred Wiki. It's the Westernmost of the Portals in the High Elf region, and the text pop-up in the Portal Map here reads: Western Tyr Lysia - A cultivated stretch of land West of Sloeford.

Anyhoo, I've looked and looked along that stretch and just can't find the Portal. If someone who knows exactly where it is could give some clear instructions on how to get to it, I'd be really grateful. It's not something that will keep me from continuing, but I'd like to have all these Portals activated just in case I need a shortcut later.

i think im having the same trouble,is it the portal that looks like its near the celestial dome and the seraphim tower(starting point for seraphim) when looking at portal map its on the left side of the map(west i think) i also would like to know how to get to it.

Thanks wraithking, but isn't that another 1-way Portal like the one in the Forgotten Valley that goes to the exit-only Portal in the Celestial Dome?

The one I'm looking for is supposed to be just across a river to the NW of the Monastery of Light. There is also a resurrection Monolith just to the NE of where the Portal is indicated on the map.

There is a much more detailed view in the World Map at Sacred Wiki. I'm going to go check it out on my lunch break today and see if I can somehow take a screen-shot of the close-up view.

EDIT: Here is that screen-shot: i77.photobucket.com/albums/j74/Cabranth/Snap3.jpg It's from a zoomed-in view of the World Map at Sacred Wiki. I added the large red arrow.

I'm starting to suspect it's just a mistake that somehow got added to the Portal Map here and the World Map at Sacred Wiki and hasn't been corrected yet.

From what i can make out as there's not much map to go on, it sounds like it's the portal that is on the way to the white griffon mini boss. I've found the best way to find portals is 2 ways...1, follow the paths on the large map, and then cross-check them with the portal maps on this site. Also, as you near towns etc, i check using the mini-map AND the large map as you never know what you can uncover as you journey on smashing through mobs

Edit, to get to the area i think you are in, head northwest from sloeford, past the looters quest (10 smugglers), then west when the road forks...following the path on the large map will get you there, it's not in a town or anything, it's kind of in a random location really, but it IS near the dome.. Hope that helps....

Thanks for the reply parky, but I'm not having any trouble at all getting to the location I posted the screen-shot of. As a matter of fact I've spent a total of about half an hour doing nothing but running around over and over in exactly that location. It's right across the river from the Monastery of Light.

The problem is that there is no 2-way Portal there. Both the Portal Map here and the World Map at Sacred Wiki indicate there should be a 2-Way Portal there, but there simply isn't one. That's why I said in my last post that I believe it's just an error in both the maps.

Sorry for the back-to-back posts, but I wasn't sure if merely editing my last post would show up. I wanted to make sure anyone having the same problem as myself would see the updated info I have.

I've just recieved good news from Schot, an Admin. over at the DarkMatters Sacred Wiki and author of the big, bad World Map. The Portal I've mentioned is in fact supposed to be there, so all maps that show it are correct. The problem is that some early versions of the game were bugged, and the missing 2-way Portal is supposed to be fixed with either the last or next-to-last patch.

Great, glad you've managed to find the solution you needed

the one in the image i included(link) is a standard 2 way portal(like sloefeld) and when activated if you go to the ingame map it comes up as western tyr lysia portal,the black line marking the route is a bit too long though its slightly south of the end of the line.
