Are there more than one instance?
 

I'm trying to meet up with a friend, and was wondering if there was more than one instance for each island, similar to vmk. Does anyone know?

Yes, there are different seas. Pull out your map and at the top it will tell you which sea you are in, clilck the arrow thing under that and it shows all available seas, click the one you want to go to.

We can now teleport to friends.

Thank you so much! I was going crazy last night because I couldn't find him.

He's not on my friend list yet since I wasn't able to find him, but it's great we can teleport to them :)
