Step 25
The Symbol of Return, governed by Lady Lumnis, is obtained at the twenty fifth step of the Order of Voln. Invoking this symbol will cause the player and all group members to be instantly transported (aka fogged) to one of several Voln anchor locations depending upon the member's location at the time of use. This is one-way travel only that cannot be targeted. In certain locations, such as Shadow Valley and Old Ta'Faendryl there are group restrictions and only the member will be transported.
Syntax
Symbol of Return
Note: Caution should be used when typing this symbol. If abbreviated to Sym of Ret the member will invoke Symbol of Retribution instead of Symbol of Return.
Messaging
First Person (returning to Wehnimer's Landing Voln monastery courtyard):
Your surroundings blur into a white fog . . .
[Courtyard]
A well maintained and healthy garden occupies the entirety of the courtyard. The air here is cool and crisp, but the bulk of the monastery shelters you from wind and makes the air bracing instead of chilling. In the center of the garden is a natural spring bubbling up several inches above the surface of the encircling pool of crystal clear water. A large stone and iron gate blocks the entrance to the monastery flanked by a statue of a woman carrying a crystal staff and a set of crystalline keys facing a second statue of a kneeling young man bedecked in battle-worn black chain armor. You also see a mottled grey hedgehog, some ambrominas leaf, some woth flower, a large fel tree and a polished marble bench with some stuff on it.Third Person:
Return Locations
- Voln monastery (Wehnimer's Landing area)
- Liabo Plaza (Solhaven area)
- Tower Ruins (Solhaven trail area)
- Voln (Icemule Trace area)
- Temple (Teras Isle area)
- Ledge (Shadow Valley) area
Favor Cost
Symbol of Return favor cost is based on the member's level (not Voln rank). See Table for specific examples. Each use has a relative favor cost of 10x Symbol of Protection. In other words, 1 activation of Sym of Return uses the same amount of favor as 10 activations of Sym of Protection.
Favor Required to Obtain Symbol of Return
Formula: 2400 + (( level2 × 40) ÷ 3 )
Ex. level 15 member: 2400 + ((15 × 15 × 40) ÷ 3) = 5400 favor
Ex. level 20 member: 2400 + ((20 × 20 × 40) ÷ 3) = 7733 favor
