 Actual exit portals are very rare, but they most commonly show up inside of pan lord vaults, and each rune you collect increases the odds of finding an exit. Abyss exits are somewhat more common.
 Be aware that each time you travel to a new realm in Pandemonium, you will be placed at an entirely random point. There is no guarantee that another portal will be anywhere near where you enter, or that you won't be dumped in the middle of a horde of powerful demons. If your character can buff themselves, it is a good idea to cast them before entering any portal.
