Default Take ports only when you must, and tip.

Consider the following. If you bought 10 ports, you'd be broke, yeah. But whatever you're doing at level 21 should only require one or two ports (which wouldn't be available if some druid/wizard wasn't out looking for plat). As a low-level melee, you should bind in a friendly town with one or more good exp zones nearby. Log in, hoof it and grind, log out, repeat. No ports. Once you outgrow that area, pay for a single port and bind at a new home base. And yeah, maybe you'll pay 10% of your net worth. Once.

There's no need to port every play session. Take ports only when you must, and tip.

Also, I think a lot of people are conceding that 5 gold per level is the current standard on Green/Teal.
