I don't see anything in the OP about summoned items. Bags, food/drink, weapons for pets, waterstones, lev rings, bandages, arrows...

When I'm parked in EC I sometimes get asked and more often then not I am tipped, but I'm curious what people's thoughts are on this, because I don't think I've ever seen it discussed in these types of threads.

Yeah that's a good point. We have all these expectations about ports, but I've rarely seen mages tipped significantly for any of those things which can really make a significant difference in your overall play session.

As someone who has also played a Druid significantly, I think Druids complaining about tip amounts is a little ridiculous unless it's a situation where you were XPing somewhere and took the time to go help someone out by porting them. Otherwise, I'm not going to complain that you didn't give me 1pp per level for clicking a button while I sit there watching Netflix or doing something else.

@Sabin, imo summoned items are like buffs. Personally If a mage summons me a stack of water/food i hand em 10pp(but im 50 and good amount of bank). But I can still see someone at least tipping a mage a few pp for food/water. Now on my monk when I ask for bandages/thrown wps I tip at least peridot if their taking time and summoning me a crap ton(usually like i'm about to go PL a player and im stuck in paw).

Buffs are weird, just like summon stuff. 49 druid buffs can still cost them 1/3-1/2 their whole mana bar. Heck my 44 druid SLDiamond is 200mana, thorns 100 mana, regen 100 mana, sow 40 mana. 440 mana to buff someone out of what my 1600 mana pool.

So tip what you can. Like I posted usually 5pp-30pp depending what I am getting and doing. On my new wizard I kept tipping enchanters around me like 20pp just for crack, just bc I could ask them again and they'be be super happy to tip me.

You get some nice tips porting people out from seafury island. Somebody hands me a sapphire and I'm like right on, then I cross them off my "people to kill" list like steve buscemi in billy madison

You know why you work for tips? Because nobody wants to stick the whole thing inside...

Tipping is an abomination and needs to be removed from society.

People gave my mage on green plat for summoning them pet swords without me expecting it, like all the time. 10 or 20 plat, surprised me at first but it happened all the time with 40+ pet casters. I can dig it since that extra power means extra plat in their pocket, takes no time at all to get 10 or 20 plat in the 40's leveling a caster solo.

What Fammaden said. I get amazed when I hear that some 40+ person didn't tip a resser/buffer/porter. Like seriously Most 35+ mobs drop avg 3-10pp per kill if you count FS.

ReZ is 100-200pp
SoW or Regen /dance /grovel - 25pp
Ports 40-50pp

^^ if you ever pay any less you are scum. Walk or starve or whatever.

I never port or buff for tips. Lol it's never that serious. If you do fine , if you don't. I don't mind.

I even turn down tips sometime. I definitely wouldn't take any low level noobies. PP.
