Port rates for velious zones?

[Daldaen]

I've never understood the different values for different ports. They all require same cast time and mana cost.

A DL Port -> Evac from KC I understand an increased value

A WL Port / CS Port can be dangerous if you aren't CoV factions -- Though on this server Wuoshi will be perma dead and kiters should keep CS pretty picked clean of drakes/wyverns.

Everything else though...

I don't see why you would charge any extra for porting to any Velious zones.. just because there is a bottleneck doesn't mean it takes any extra effort for the Druid/Wizard.. and Wyverns/Woushi are going to be perma camped for a long time.

They should be the same as they are currently imo.

I don't list port prices, in the rare occassions I port for cash with my druid, I do it for donations. But if I did list prices, the price would be 50p for all locations. And it would remain so for velious ports.

There's zero chance of me dieing on a port to CS (lowbies might have a small risk) and even if Wuoshi is up, I can very probably live through landing on his head (If my passenger dies, that's his tough luck lol)

Pretty bold statement to think you can land on woushi's head and not eat a fear unless you're not kos

Pretty bold statement to assume Wuoshi will be un-aggroed longer than 30 seconds on this server.

*ESPECIALLY* in the first few months. 3-4 level 60 spells per kill and 1-2 BP/Leg gems, is more valuable than his entire loot table lol.

I'll have the start a movement for a woushi non aggression agreement so we can keep you druids on your toes

My only concern with this topic is that you please, PLEASE do not state the cost as a tip, or "for tips". If payment is required, I am not tipping, I am making a business transaction.

But then people can't pretend porting is some glorious player interaction and the loss of it due to PoK books or Luclin spires killed the game!!!

A tip is a "compensation for service provided" transaction with the amount at the discretion of the person providing the tip. It's a degrading and ethically questionable mechanism, just like most other "business transactions", but it's an entirely reasonable use of the word.

"Donation", on the other hand, is absurd and inappropriate.
