Didn't someone say that it was really hard to get god tier and not everyone could do it? Unless I'm remembering it wrong.

Also Blade, from the handbook manual thing:
Quote from: First paragraph on page 65
The first portal will take the player to another location on their planet, the second will take them to their Server player's house... 
About getting to Skaia, though I'm not sure this means what I think it means, or if it even helps at all:
Quote from: Same page, after the picture of DD and PM
After progressing through their worlds, the players will end up on Skaia itself, a planet covered in a chessboard pattern, representing the ultimate potential.

Yeah, but that doesn't mean they were right.

That's true, I guess. But I'd believe that because nobody said anything to the effect of the opposite as far as I know. If someone has, please link it.

Alright then, after a quick perusal of the wiki and also the part in Homestuck where John gets tricked into going to Rose's house, I have determined that yeah, I was totally right the whole time.

http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003583

This page and the few after it for proof.

I actually got a bit confused myself after checking the pdf and wiki, (http://mspaintadventures.wikia.com/wiki/The_Seven_Gates) but the first paragraph of the wiki seems to be where the pdf got the information and is more than a little misleading, especially when you read further down (paragraph four). The main problem is it doesn't distinguish between gates over the house's, and the gates sprinkled over the lands.

Anyway, the important bits:

1. There are more gates than the ones hovering over your house, and those in your land take you to the homes of players in their land (including your own)
2. In any case, the first gate of either set wouldn't port you to anyone else's house.
3. God tiers aren't the only way to reach Skaia. You do not have to get the tiger to participate in the final battle.
4. Choosing to go God Tier will require a sub-quest, rather than immediate level advancement for someone who wants to have a powerful Signature Alchemy. The main bulk of said subquest will involve finding one of your two quest beds, and then dying all over it.
5. Lastly, remember rule zero. There's a lot we know about the game mechanics of Sburb, but also a lot we don't. Things will be fudged. Canon will be ignored interpreted creatively.

Now, let's get back to playing the game. I have to do something real quick, and then I'll probably get to assaulting CR with a bunch more enemies.

The ones around the planets are called return nodes. Should help with the confusion.

See, that makes sense. I'll have to be certain to start referring to them in that manner.

*sigh* Well. I do have to return this key... I hope a meteor doesn't hit this place again. That would be silly.

>CR: Head back and return the key.

You start making your way up to the top of your house to return the key you'd borrowed to get into that temple. Swordsprite joins you as you ascend.

When you reach the top of the house, you notice a few enemies clustered around your gate. You can choose to attempt to get closer with stealth, which will be difficult, as there is no cover, or you can just straight up roll initiative.


>Mikheal: Check your surroundings if you think your being watched. This was like rule number 6 that your father told you.

You manage to spot the same black clad figure from earlier desperately looking around your hallway! He's talking into a radio, but you can't tell what he's saying. On closer inspection, you realize he is all black. How would you like to approach the situation?



Also, I really need a properly resized version of your maps.

Probably CD. DD's too cool to look desperate.
