shakespearean firepot dilemma

[Seducio]

I've experienced both having firepot access and not having it and am seeking a discussion on whether firepots is worth it or not for various classes.

I had one character bind at firepots on blue. As a epic Enchanter this made him extremely self sufficient almost never needing a port except for Planes. One negative was that dieing deep in a dungeon while soloing would take longer to CR than if I was bound at dungeon entrance. Although still bound there it became harder to justify in Velious era.

On the other hand I had another character on blue who was unable to bind at firepots because of when he was created. This character was a Torpor Shaman had to rely on binding near dungeons. For travel he relied on his OT hammer and Porters to get around. But he was able to get back quick in a dungeon if he died because he was usually bound right outside.


Currently I am undecided whether I want to bind at firepots on green.

Do you plan to bind at the firepots in November, why/what class, and for how long?

Does anyone have actual experience as a melee character bound at firepots and what its like day-to-day for a melee?

Appreciate any and all positive discussion
