The Portable Hole

From DDO wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The Portable Hole[edit]

The Portable Hole is an inn that can be reached only by using aTeleport or Greater Teleport spell. It exits to the Marketplace, in front of the Harbor gate, although Teleport can also be used to leave. No quests are given or are started in the Portable Hole inn, although the quest Tavern Brawl takes place on a map of this place.

(Interestingly, a player is also teleported to the Portable Hole if they somehow manage to fall out of the game world, such as in Update 60 where it was possible to fall out of Just Business into The Unassigned.)

The simplest method of getting to the Portable Hole is via the Teleport spell. Because of this, it is not easily accessible to newer players. If you can't cast Teleport:

  • Scrolls of Teleport can be used by Wizards of at least 9th level, Sorcerers and Warlocks of at least 10th, and anyone with a Use Magic Device score of 36. Buy a stack of scrolls at various vendors (including the one at the Portable Hole, once you get there).
  • Try finding a Wizard, Sorcerer or Warlock who knows Greater Teleport, and have them cast it on you.
  • There are several clickies that let you cast Teleport. By far the easiest to obtain is the Royal Guard Mask from Bring Me the Head of Ghola-Fan!, in the Restless Isles.
  • Once you've arrived, if you wish, you can use the Spirit Binder inside to bind your spirit there. Afterwards you can travel to the Portable Hole by using the chat command "/death" to kill your character and revive here. (As usual with "/death", non-permanent equipment damage may occur, requiring repair.) Remember, this is also where your character will revive if you die in a quest then click "Release".


There are subtle distinctions to the Portable Hole:

  • It is the teleport spell destination with the most varied services for spell scrolls and spell materials.
  • All purchasable arcane spells are available here. See vendor list below.
  • It has its own chat channels.

The following scrolls are sold exclusively here and are unavailable from other scroll vendors:

NPCs of Note[edit]

There is a mailbox located in the center of the tavern.
