Faith Transfer Portal

From within a faith island, binds to the Faithpoint matching its signature — then carries the whole island there.

Pattern​

Hover a tile to name it. Reading pattern diagrams explains the symbols.

7 × 7, one layer. Drawn on the ground, on a wall, or on a ceiling, facing any direction.

T↑TTTTTTATATT←TTATT→TTATATTTTTT↓T
  • Tier block × 24
    Every T is the same block, and that block’s Tier sets the rune’s strength.
  • Signature block × 4
    Each arm holds a Tier 1+ block other than the Tier block, or stays empty (air or Tier 0). Read by compass direction, the arms spell the rune’s signature.
  • Air or a Tier 0 block × 16
    Leave these as air, or fill them with Tier 0 blocks such as dirt or stone.
  • Activation block
    The glowing cell is the one to click.

Keys

  • Gold Block × 5
    stays after use

How it works​

The Faith Transfer Portal carries a whole island to a Faithpoint. Build it wholly inside the island.

  1. Bind it. Set the signature on the four tips to match the Faithpoint, and right-click with an empty hand. The tips are spent, and the island stays put. The portal drinks the signature — the faithpoint is remembered.
  2. Travel. With the tips empty, right-click again. Skyhold begins to cross the void… Faith carries Skyhold across the world — it alights on the faithpoint.

The pattern stays, so each touch after binding sends the island again.

Good to know​

  • The portal reaches Faithpoints of its own Tier or lower. The faithpoint (Tier 5) outclasses this portal (Tier 3).
  • It can cross worlds unless the server forbids it.
  • A block of diamond on the island pins it in place.
  • It will not cross a Domain you do not hold.
  • A Teleport Ward keeps the portal cold inside its sphere.
