@unsunghero a tip when searching for a druid to port you around. Ask them if you can buy their services for an hour or longer. Offer 100-200p and verify they will port you around when you need it within that time limit. They can still go do other ports while you're running around or if they're kind they'll run with you. This is what I did when I was doing the Velium Retrieval quest.

another tip for everyone find the level of port you need, let's say you need a 44 druid. Do "/who all druid 44 60" without the "" then msg everyone on that list. If the list is too long, reduce the 60 and do another /who if you can't find someone in that range you reduced down to, to 60. This is best done during primetime but you can still find people 24/7. Don't let them rip you off and make you pay more than 200 for an hour of their time. like I said, they can still go port people but you'll be their primary focus since you paid for their time.
Yeah my problem was I discovered this spell had to be quested around level 40, and began making trips to gather up all the coins separately, never all at once. So each port was a diff druid (one was wiz). Shoulda probably just tried to do it all in one day

I was also under the impression that tip etiquette is to tip roughly 1pp pet level of your char, not the teleporter’s char. So when I was level 10 I was tipping 10pp. When I was 30 it was 30pp, and so forth. Now that I’m in the 40’s I tip 44pp

For me the money isn’t a huge problem, I still have 10k in the bank but that’s because I bunkered down, stopped exp’ing and just farmed pp for weeks and weeks in the past because I was thinking about twinking a 2nd char but never did. But 40pp tips at level 40 can be tough for anyone new to the game who hasn’t been farming pp deliberately. But your suggestion to hire for an hour def can alleviate this a bit
