Making Our Mark: Obtaining the Line Tool

In Landmark you'll need to obtain a lot of resources to create this building tool.

This information is from the alpha build of Landmark and is subject to change.

The advanced building tools in EverQuest Next Landmark are designed to put power at your fingertips, allowing you to reshape and manipulate voxels in amazing ways. In this edition of Making Our Mark we'll take a look at the Line Tool!

By this point we've covered everything you'll need to create your Selection Tool, as well as the Paint and Smoothing tools. The Line Tool is currently the final tool in our aresenal and will require a lot more crafting stations, picks and resources, building on where you leave off with the Paint and Smooth tools.

First, let's take a brief look at what the Line Tool can do.

This tool can be used many ways: maybe you want to create a ramp or ceiling, make some support beams for a pillar or just make some wacky piece of decor. Whatever your needs, this tool is bound to enhance your creations.

The Line Tool requires you to connect two points. Click to set where your beginning point is, and stretch it out to set your end point. The selection area color turns green when it's a valid connection, as seen above, and red when it's not.

You can go a step further and have two different sizes for either end. Start with a wide base and end with a narrow point or vice versa. As long as you make a valid connection, you're good to go.

This tool has many practical uses, such as ramps, as well as enhancing intricate decor and design.

Next, let's look at everything you need to create this tool. This is a larger supply list compared to previous tools, as you'll have to create several crafting stations!
