Exploring the vast world of Throne and Liberty can be a breathtaking experience. Whether journeying on foot, soaring through the skies, or swimming in deep waters, players have a variety of movement options thanks to Morphs. However, when large distances become too time-consuming to traverse manually, fast travel is an essential tool.
Mastering Waypoints in Throne and Liberty: A Complete Guide
Unlocking Waypoints for Fast Travel
As you adventure through Throne and Liberty, you’ll encounter numerous structures that unlock fast travel locations. These structures, known as Waypoints, are large stones with glowing runes protruding from the ground. Once activated, they allow you to travel between locations instantly.
The first Waypoint you’ll find is located in Kastleton, the starting city. Simply interact with it to activate the Waypoint. Each time you unlock a Waypoint, you’ll experience a cutscene offering lore about your current location, enhancing the game’s story. If you ever wish to relive these moments, you can revisit the Waypoint and replay the cutscene.
Cost of Fast Travel
Fast travel is free for the first 30 levels of the game. You can open your map, select any previously activated Waypoint, and instantly travel there without a fee. However, after reaching level 30, you’ll need to manage your Sollant, the in-game currency, which is required for fast travel.
When using Waypoints after level 30, you’ll see a breakdown of the costs on your screen:
- Basic Cost: The standard amount required for the travel.
- Required Cost: How much you’ll need for that specific journey.
- Sollant Total: Your current currency balance.
Paying attention to your Sollant reserves will ensure you can fast travel without draining your resources too quickly.
Special Fast Travel with Gigantrite
In some cases, fast travel requires more than just a Waypoint. For example, one unique Waypoint is connected to the Gigantrite, a massive flying whale. To reach the Waypoint in Saurodoma, players must leap from a high ledge and morph mid-air to land on the creature’s back. After activating the Saurodoma Waypoint, you’ll be able to return to this location anytime without needing to repeat the process.
Return Feature
Another useful tool for fast travel is the Return feature, unlocked through story progression. This option allows players to instantly teleport back to the last town or encampment they visited. Access it from your hotbar or quick menu, depending on your platform. Unlike Waypoints, using Return won’t cost any Sollant and is much faster than manually dashing back to town.
A Player’s Perspective on Fast Travel
One player mentioned: “I tend to fast travel when there’s nothing between me and my objective. However, if I’m close to something on the map, I prefer to walk there manually. Fast travel could mean I’d have to backtrack later, which might make the journey even longer.”
This highlights an important aspect of fast travel: while it can save time, manually exploring areas near your current location can often be more rewarding and efficient.
By mastering fast travel in Throne and Liberty, you’ll be able to explore the world efficiently while balancing the time-saving benefits with the joy of discovering new locations on foot.
