Trading House Transporter

Well I bought one of these things and Im posting here for others who might see this and decide to purchase. No where in the description does it mention this but I found out (after a series of emails exchanged between me and support) that these things only work for Praetorians.

Be warned.

The sad part is I cannot figure out how to remove it from my powers list and i cant use it. Im gonna try to resell it but I wish I could add a disclaimer to the auction so others aren't as easily duped as I.

You should be able to right-click and select "remove from tray".

Or are you saying you're looking in your powers list and can't figure out how to use it?

If so, click-and-hold on it and drag it to an open spot on your powers tray. You can then use it.



Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.

He's saying that the market teleporters for the Praetorian markets won't work once you've left Praetoria, which isn't exactly made clear when you purchase them.

Further than that, the Trading House transporter only works for Loyalists. Resistance members have their own consignment house to use.

So you bought access to a zone you shouldn't be able to have access to and it didn't work?
I see, I guess that would surprise you. Thanks for letting us know though.

Can vigilantes and rogues use both wentports and marketports?

also, can you use a houseport to get back into praetoria after you've left or does it get deleted?

I can be found, outside of paragon city here.
Thank you everyone at Paragon and on Virtue. When the lights go out in November, you'll find me on Razor Bunny.

You can use whichever porter works for the area you are currently in. So no you can't went port from the rogue isles or vice versa.

Also no.

Hyperstrike - Yea, I cant remove it from my powers list. I took it off my bar.

Chaos Creator - I have Going Rogue but the toon I purchased the transporter for has never been there. I bought it from Wentworth's. So if it can only be used in Praetoria, why was it for sale in Wentworth's? Why did the description not detail the limitations of the device? It was only 10k inf and I am not upset with the purchase. I just figured I would share my experience in case someone else did the same thing they could find the answer on the forum without trading a weeks worth of emails with Support. I really didn't see the need for the sarcasm, either. Not all of us have been playing for nigh on forever.

Believe it or not the version you see has about 2/3 less sarcasm than my original post did.
You can thank Fury Flechette for convincing me to tone it down.
