Each time it put me back on the surface of the map rather than inside the matrix room. Was I doing something wrong?

This was about a year ago, or longer. Maybe it wasn't working for a while and but does now, I'll have to try again.
The Matrix Room is the much smaller black box under the blue box. Fly under the black box and then type /stuck.

Ah, okay. The instructions I had only mentioned the blue box, I wasn't sure what the black blox was. Then I'm guessing the blue box must actually house the interior of the arena? I believe that's where I kept ending up with /stuck.

That is definitely not the Paragon Dance Party. That uses a version of the rave warehouse map, and is also still in the game. Actually, it was used recently by the Community Team - Semi-finalists in all the official costume contests run on Exalted were teleported to the PDP for the second round of judging.

If you find the threads posted by the Community Team with screenshots of the sem-finalists and finalists, you can see bits of the area in the background.

Single Target Radius = 0. AoE Non-Cone Arc = 360.

No, the Paragon Dance Party was just a regular warehouse map with colored lighting and dance music (one of the boombox tracks I think). I think there have been people who left toons logged in there who were able to log them back in and remain on that map.

i forgot to check the door and get the /loc yesterday. i'll try to remember today. The door that's been working for me is not actually a clickable door.

Edit: Peregrine Isle: -2750.2 -6.2 -7006.0 (Cutlass Isle/Monkey Island.) You don't need to type /stuck, logging out and back in will put you below ground, so you'll start falling immediately if you don't have a flight power active.
Ah, those co-ordinates got me there. I logged out at those co-ordinates to the character select screen then logged in the same character and loaded in under the PI map.

After logging in under the map, I flew to below the arena under the black box, typed /stuck and emerged in what I've always heard referred to as The Matrix Room. I'm still there on Texas Justice on the Justice server. Will probably stay there a while again.


If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

I was shown that room quite a long time ago, and I was told that's what it was. As it was removed before my time in the game, I had no reason to think otherwise. Thank you for the correction.

I so have to try to get there this weekend.

Hmm, need to find one of my retired characters I don't care about who I can leave in there forever.

I can be found, outside of paragon city here.
Thank you everyone at Paragon and on Virtue. When the lights go out in November, you'll find me on Razor Bunny.

Makes me want to roll up a toon called The Architect dressed in a white business suit and have him sitting in the middle of the room. It'd be worth the hours long wait just to say.

"Hello, $playername."

As soon as anyone found the place.

I've been in there a few times (but not recently).

My understanding was that it was originally intended as the player "waiting area"
for Arena PvP (when it first released).

For reasons I now don't recall, the devs decided to handle Arena queueing differently,
which no longer required that room - making it obsolete and unused.

I'm definitely in the crowd that would love to see this room re-purposed and
used in-game as it's (imho) one of the cooler places to visit.

Failing that, I truly hope they *don't* fix the spot(s) that allow us to get into it.
Those bugs, I can live with, and actually enjoy from time to time...

I verified that I can still get into the Blue/Matrix room this past weekend.
