I hope the portal arcanist ability has a morph that can be used by allies.

I think it would really open things up.
It would be interesting if the enemy faction could use it too. Right now I can't really think of what the different morphs may be.

✭✭I assume allies could use it, otherwise what would be the appeal to the ability? We already have streak, stampede, shade teleport, etc in the game.0 -

✭✭✭They ARE usable by allies.Prefer to play a supporting role? With the restorative Curative Runeforms skill line, you can make use of healing runes to keep your party (or yourself) healthy, shield your allies from damage, or even help them navigate the battlefield via portals with the Apocryphal Gate ability, which summons a passage between worlds!

✭✭✭I'm scratching my head as to why virtually no one uses the warden portal rune. Maybe something you project forward will be better. Agreed on others using it would be cool. Going upwards is different and useful, but could also break stuff in PvP. If it's just for the casting player, how different is it from Ball of Lightning really?0 -

If the preview is accurate in that you can put the portal on terrain vertically above the player it would make it superior in terms of terrain navigation.
Streak only travels horizontally. Stampede requires a target. Shade teleport is dropped where you currently are and ports you back vs letting you travel ahead or where you couldn't otherwise access without the ability.0 -

At least it's a class with a mobility skill. I equate necro and warden with DK in the sense that they are typically played as PvP brawlers and don't have anything better than generic mobility, e.g. RAT. (Templar is it's own thing in my mind, because it's main skill is channeled). Let's see how the rest of the toolkit plays. It would make sense if Arcanist is more on the squishy / mobility side, e.g. like sorc. Who knows, with new classes coming out the gate at least slightly OP, maybe it will be the answer to magsorc woes.I assume allies could use it, otherwise what would be the appeal to the ability?
