They have, and they change due to server lag/outage etc.

There's literally a discord for this, just ask in the P99 discord for a link

At least: can the GM's have some sand giants push the boats to speed up this public transportation.

Good rant
8/10 for the RP factor.

But yes, a round trip is like 40 minutes real time. Porting was always an amazing thing and not found like this in other MMORPGs that I played in era. Druid was always a popular class, the SOW and ports gave mobility to the player base.

Going from crawling around noobie zones to your friends finding you and one has a high level druid. Now you are running around, sometimes as a wolf!, and can instantly go to the other side of the world, that would take you like an hour of goofing around and sight seeing the game. Big oldschool CRT in the original UI.. no other games like it at the time for me. Nintendo 64 was still for sale at Wal-Mart.

tl/dr: Kelethin druid guild should hire the gnomes to fix the OOT druid rings, it's been in disrepair long enough. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] j/k

an awesome custom quest would be for there to be an island with pirates on it that if you do a quest it respawns the island for like 8 hours and the boats come every 5 minuets, but if you leave the mobs up the boats go back down to their once in a life time rate they are set to now.

One of the few things EQ2 did right was just put a fucking bell at every dock that teleports you.

One of the many things they did wrong was put the bell almost everywhre else as well.
