Linking

Hello! I am pretty new on Ingress but still don't understand a couple things. Like.. How do you link two portals if they are nearby and owned by your faction? Thanks in advance!

    Welcome to Ingress, agent! I'd recommend reading through the smurfling.guide, it covers tons of stuff. If you're on the green team, swap the colors in your head, both teams play the same.

    About your question: You can link two portals together if all of the following requirements are met:

    - Both portals are fully resonated (All 8 resonator slots filled)

    - Both portals are in your color

    - Between the two portals, there is no other link. Links cannot cross each other

    - The portal you link from is not under a field

    - You have a portal key of the portal you want to link to. Portal keys are unique to each portal and can only be hacked at that specific portal

    - The portal you want to link to is within link range. Link range is determined by the portal you want to link from and depends on the level of resonates placed.

    -Finally, the portal you want to link from cannot have all outbound link slots occupied already. Without mods, a portal can only have 8 outbound links. There is no (theoretical) limit on inbound links.

    It sounds like a ton to pay attention to, but most of the time, these factors above don't matter.

    If you have other questions, do ask them! There are a lot of agents here that are happy to see new players and want to help :)

  • Thanks for the valuable info! Will let you know if I have any more questions on Ingress!
