Paineel Lift/Hole Key etiquette.

[Tobius]

Is there a consensus to this?

I'm generally for helping people, especially for CR's

It's boring but very easy to raise faction on kobolds, and unlike say Velious faction, that might bounce up and down, you only have to do it once.

People often beg to be let in, and then out, of Paineel or ask you to come do the hole door for them.

If you are high enough level for the hole you can easily blast your way to apprehensive faction with heretics, it's worth having somewhere to bank and shop anyway.

It's gotten worse with the exp boost change for the hole.

It's annoying and fiddly to leave the city, not fall down the hole and run over and back.

And to be cynical you could probably kill 4 skeletons and get 40 plat in that time so there's actually an oppurtunity cost to it, as well as the exp. You also risk someone stealing your camp while you are gone.

In practice when I get asked I generally still go. But I'm kind of annoyed because I kinda feel like if I had to faction for ages why don't you?

It's not like a 24hr spawn where people with jobs and lives struggle, you can chip away at faction in bursts.

But then I feel like an asshole for thinking that.

What say y'all?
