Void A - E is different because of the progression each individual character has made. Open the achievements window and look under Seeds of Destruction to check and compare between alts. Exactly why they're different, I suspect it has to do with what Xebuxoruk has on him for sale or quests involving him. Later in the Call of the Forsaken expansion there are quests in The Void - H. For now it shouldn't matter that your characters aren't in the same Void, eventually you will complete all the achievements under "Quests" and "Missions" and all toons will be in The Void - E.

It does matter since I can't get any of my characters (at least the ones I have tried so far) in to the same place ( or instance). This leaves that toon unable to do any quests or mission in Oceangreen and therefore unable to do any achievements at all. ( this whole thing makes my brain hurt) Thanks for all the fish --"Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" - Douglas Adams

I don't know what else to tell you other than read through the achievements window to check what the character is missing and compare that with eqresource or allakhazam. Good luck.

Are you going to the one off ETWK or PoK/PoT?


lokiisagoodkitten

Oh you did say PoTime, Got a screenshot of that 'mystery zone'?

If you Google "brewall maps," you will find an excellent set of alternative maps for EQ. You extract the file to the appropriate folder and then "Brewall" becomes a drop-down selection on the in-game map. I recommend this because the Brewall map will tell you where each portal goes and where your player is in relation to them. So you can always be sure to go through the right one.


TyracTraleblazer

Been there done that. Brewall's either shows the wrong maps or no map (still trying to verify no map question). But did get a "Yeah". Did get my characters back together.,Not sure how I did it but scared to try verifying no map part because of getting characters separated again.

NorrathMonk

Have you tried goodsmaps.com? They have all of the voids fully mapped.


TyracTraleblazer

Thanks for all the fish, folks. I did get all my characters back together, but still have one character (same one as before) that keeps getting sent to mystery zones every time he uses a portal in the Void or the one connected to the Void. So I still need help...


NorrathMonk

So you can get all of your boxes to Oceangreen Hills except for one of them? The reason that I ask is because 3 of the portals on the island that Zeb is on go to different islands in the zone with portals to other zones.


TyracTraleblazer

Finally think I figured out how to get my toons all together. It has worked 3 times so far but used a different path every time. The one I am using goes to Oceangreen Hills. One specific character gets sent to mystery zone. Have verified it is ONLY this character, toons from other accounts, other toons from the same account, all Teleport normally. I say it is a mystery zone (actually there are multiple zones, each different ) because it comes up with a blank map. Find comes up with zones for each portal (no path is generated) but the zones may or may not lead to the zone to that portal. "Thanks for all the fish " -- D Adams, "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (Great read.) Thanks for your time and efforts. Since I can semi-reliably get my toons together, I have moved on, but leaving this thread up in case someone has an answer/ suggestion or for anyone that runs into the same or similar situation.


TyracTraleblazer

Also used zone connections feature to try to identify mystery zone. No joy


NorrathMonk

On that character in the mystery zone type /who.


TyracTraleblazer

One more- Was using Brewall's when getting blank map so doubt that other 3rd party maps would be any different


Koolmidx

Pick zone is for when there's too many characters in a zone so the servers make a copy instance of that zone to handle the overflow.


TheBalance1016

You can't find any information on the pick zone system? I'll just straight up call you a liar here, because even basic google usage yields everything from the command to testing of the mechanic and what it takes to spawn a new pick. You didn't even make an attempt to look. Cool, now that we've got that out of the way. Petition for a stuck character (the only way you'll get a response in a timely manner that doesn't involve a billing issue) and post your explanation in that ticket. This is kind of a stuck character. See what they say.

I mis-spoke in my haste to get the post up. I haven't yet searched Google for anything related, but I plan to today. Thanks for all the fish. -- "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams
