Sounds good and makes sense. Luckily I already have all the locations so it wouldn't have affected me anyways.

Guide to Base Teleporters
Are there any new ways to get the teleport beacons? Meaning, in peregrine there used to be just the one badge, now there are three or four. Does only that one old badge give the beacon or can you get any one badge?

Thank you everyone at Paragon and on Virtue. When the lights go out in November, you'll find me on Razor Bunny.

The requirements of the beacons have stayed exactly the same.

Interesting. That will make it a bit confusing to get teleport beacons as there are now essentially two classes of explore badge: Teleport badges and accolade only badges.|

Good to know and pretty much what I expected. Thanks for the update!

Why? All the explore badge names are listed on the accolade hint for each zone, and I'm pretty sure that the old badges are listed before the new badges on each hint.|

Find a single badge, look at the accolade progress bar, and go from the beginning of the listed badges.

My point is, for someone who wants the teleport beacon and doesn't care about the accolade, figuring out which explore badge they are missing is going to be a bit trickier now. Used to be, worst case scenario you visit a small number of locations and if you didn't have it in SG mode you have it now.|

combined with no message in SG mode if you already have the explore, the extra layer of also not being sure which of the badges count for the teleporter and which don't is going to be a bit more confusing for new players.
Not a big deal, and nothing the wiki won't resolve, but something I wondered about. And a lot of players don't use the wiki or vidiot maps.

I just wanted to let people know that the new Issue 17 explore badges do not seem to be needed to get any of the Base TP beacons.
