Items
🧭 Wayfinder's Compass
Teleport to a friend's location
Right-click to open a player list. Select a friend and send a teleport request. If they accept, you'll be whisked to their side instantly. The compass is consumed on use.
📯 Hero's Call Stone
Summon a friend to your location
The reverse of the compass - bring a friend to YOU. Perfect for when you've found something amazing and want to share it, or when a teammate needs rescuing. Consumed on use.
📿 Beacon Band
See your friends on the map
A bracelet that links players together. Right-click to set a beacon code - any word or phrase. Players sharing the same code can see each other on:
- World Map - Green markers showing friend locations with distance
Great for parties, guilds, or couples who want to stay connected.
** Not required to wear - Just needs to be in inventory at the least.

While we love seeing each other on the map some of us prefer to not be glowing in the dark while wearing it.
