Talk:Portal (Gameplay element)

Table
We need a table for each portal. The constants are location, enemies, and bonus requirement. There is a short list of random dream pieces and bonus items you can get for each portal, but the Bradygames only lists one of them for each portal, so if the ultimania doesn't have it we'll have to either rely on gamefaqs or our own testing. Special portals also have a specific forecast.

We also need to determine if the regular portals are tied to the activated special portal, whether the weather is tied to the special portal, and whether the special portals go in a set sequence. 19:33, 16 September 2012 (UTC)


 * As I always ask, should an infobox be made for Link Portals? Because, just like the System Sectors, Link Portals will be in the Game page of each world. So, we coul make a table divided in Regular, Special and Secret, with the infoboxes of each Portal inside them. - - 16:54, 18 May 2013 (UTC)

We need the template although it would always have only 7 tabs (regular portals are random so don't need any noting, unless I'm incorrect. There are 6 special portals per world although I think TWTNW is different. And there's also the extra secret portal). 20:31, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
 * The World That Never Was has three Special Portals, apparently. But how many Secret Portals does it have? just one per character? I can start the template tomorrow. I think I will also make one, or maybe just a table, for Dives.- - 14:54, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Actually, there's a need for another tab for Friend Portals. It would list all the possible DEs that a portal would give for that world. 15:21, 19 May 2013 (UTC)

Move Page
Shouldn't this be moved to Link_Portals or Link Portal? Or Portals are used in other games too? - - 14:15, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
 * I agree to Link Portal. 22:15, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
 * I left it as Portal because there are 3 types of Portals in the game, Link Portals, Secret Portals and Battle Portals. 04:31, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Plus the term "Portal" is a plot element in Traverse Town and the Grid. -- 07:51, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
 * But we have a point here. This page is for Portal Gameplay element. So, it will still be useless for the plot info on the Grid and Traverse Town. Maybe, we could make a page called just "Portal" with the plot info and another called "Link Portals", because Secret, Battle and Friendship are all different types of Link Portals. We make sections for each one, and then, we just redirect their pages. Anyway, we still need another page for the plot info, because this is only for gameplay, isn't it? - - 12:22, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
 * If I remember correctly, the Portal in Traverse Town is a manifestation of the same concept, of letting characters from various dream worlds communicate. 01:14, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
 * In that case, it should just be Portal. 02:40, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
