How to Use the Meeting Stone in Burning Crusade Classic
Get two party members to a dungeon’s Meeting Stone, select the player who needs a summon, and help activate the portal.
Meeting StoneArt: Blizzard EntertainmentIn Burning Crusade Classic, two party members at a dungeon's Meeting Stone can summon another group member. The first player selects the person who needs the summon and right-clicks the stone. The second player clicks the portal that appears. The distant player then accepts the invitation to teleport. Use the stone outside the correct dungeon before entering.
Send two players to the stone first
- Decide which two players can reach the dungeon most easily. Have them travel to the Meeting Stone and confirm they are standing at the same one.
- Invite the player who needs the summon. Check their name in the party frames.
- Have the first player target that party member and right-click the stone. Leave the target selected while the portal appears.
- Have the second player right-click the new portal. Wait for the distant player to accept, then verify that they arrived before starting another summon or entering the dungeon.
The second player interacts with the portal, which appears after the first player uses the stone. They don't start a second summon by using the stone themselves. If both players click the stone at once and nobody assists the first portal, stop and assign one person to start and one to assist.
Ask the person being summoned to confirm when they are ready. It is easier to complete the process if they aren't distracted or about to travel on their own. If the prompt expires or they decline, check who still needs the summon and make a new portal for that person.
Coordinate several summons without sending the wrong player
Summon one player at a time. After each arrival, check the party frames and select the next person who is still away. The next recipient can have a similar name or be next to the previous one in the list. Say the recipient's name before activating the stone if there is any confusion.
For example, if your tank and a damage dealer reach the stone first, the tank can select the healer and start the first portal. The damage dealer assists. When the healer appears, keep two people by the stone and summon the remaining players in turn. The healer can enter when the group is ready, as long as there are still two people outside to finish the summons.
Wait at the entrance until everyone knows where to go. A summon brings the player to the stone's location. They still need to reach and enter the dungeon portal. If two dungeons share an area or entrance complex, say which instance the group plans to enter before someone runs ahead.
Fix a portal or a missing prompt
If right-clicking the stone doesn't start a portal, check the ruleset, party membership, and selected target. This guide is for Burning Crusade Classic. A stone in Classic Era doesn't provide the same summoning function. If the game reports an eligibility or level requirement at a particular stone, read that error instead of applying a level rule from a later expansion.
If a portal appears but the recipient sees nothing, have the second player move close and interact with the portal itself. Make sure the person at a distance is still in the group. Retry once after checking who started the summon and which target they selected. Repeated clicks without those checks can leave the group trying to summon someone who is already there.
If nobody can get to the stone, plan the ground route for at least two people. A single player standing at the entrance can't complete the stone summon alone. If the group has a Warlock, Ritual of Summoning is a separate option with its own requirements. Decide which method is available before asking players to wait.
Finish the setup before the first pull
Confirm that all five players are present and entering the same dungeon. If someone still has to travel normally, wait in a cleared or safe area. A party that moves ahead immediately after the first summon may force the last person to find the entrance or catch up alone.
For a repeat run, agree in advance who will go to the stone. Sending the two closest players usually saves more time than making the entire party travel independently. Once both are there, the simple sequence is to select the player, open the portal, assist it, and confirm the arrival.
