Default PSA: All Druids/Wizards

PLEASE let me invis before porting me. I'm an iksar and hated everywhere. If you want a tip, we need to do it BEFORE we port. Please then wait until I am safely invisible again, and THEN port. If that is too hard for you, give me some sort of warning that we are porting so that I can ensure I am prepared.... Please?

Died twice to two different druids because they ported before I was invised....

Look for the "begins to cast a spell" emote. Look at the spell particles; the port spells have particular particles you can recognize. Disband before they finish casting the spell (takes a good 10 or so seconds to cast).

Hopefully soon enough you can afford a Circlet of Shadows, then you can instantly invis.

How about you let the porter know in advance for an invis? Problem solved...

Well... usually it's someone porting that has little exp with porting. I mean once a druid starts porting, they soon realize that it's just not worth it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Or let the porter now in advance you going to need invis. Iksar level 50+ normally don't have troubles when porting them.

Yep, actually people usually mention it. But I keep my invis on the same page as my group ports, which is a good reminder. Invis, bind, sow and group ports, same two open pages. I always keep my four root-rot spell gems up and dump the bottom four for the port spell set... well 3 or 4 depending if I'll need bind which would overwrite heal. But yeah, while I'm already meming invis/cammo, they usually mention it. Being a hostile port or even a CR, I always mem it.

I admit though, it did happen once, like a lvl12 troll in a rush from gfay to wc/ec late one night. I got him a full rez though, he was happy hehe. But that was some time ago, and since dropped cammo onto the port page to keep a reminder no matter how tired I am.

Hit ctrl + D if you aren't invis before port goes off.
