Default ports

The one thing that always annoyed me is the fact that people felt that they deserve a port. Try riding boats all the time and you may consider paying more than 20pp for a port.

Hahaha so true.

Porting on blue takes a minimal amount of ingame resources to profit (give or take your time in leveling your character); its also a great way to make money semi afk or if you can't commit to xping or paying attention for long periods of time.

If you want the real money as a druid though get yourself to a point where you can powerlevel and charge an hourly rate, there are other classes that might be able to do it better but bards just got a nerf on low hp kiting iirc, so a druid might be able to make a little more money (possibly? with velious inc?) doing some ds PLs [You must be logged in to view images.

Porting can be a lot of fun IMO and I actually met a ton of people that way.

I rarely play anymore and never port because I can't figure out how to stop the crashing every time I zone but 500p an hour over the long haul sounds about right. You can get some sweet 100-200pp tips and good gems but also spend 15 min running to / waiting for someone and get like 10p. Plus I always took pity on newbs traveling and would go out of my way to get them.

I logged all my porting and I always meant to right a quick program to parse it to see the real #s but never got around to if, maybe I'll do it one day.

Ps <The A Team> best tippers. Those guys always hooked me up.

I have no use for buffs when I'm porting. Not even clarity. People arguing earlier that it takes 10 minutes to med in two portal spells are hilarious. Clarity means I'm just gonna be more FM

This is mainly why I just don't port people outside my guildies. Too much controversy. Though I'll usually port people to hate/sky if asked since they always make it worth my time.

Bind at kc for Evacs to ej. People pay better for this since it's mostly 50+s trying to get to a group. Also plenty of folks trying to get rides back to ec and stuff from kunark. OT is another popular porter bind since people can hammer there to grab a port.

not only do I get pissed when I port you for 14 plat, but you probably wont get sow either.

also when I port guildies they have a slightly better than a 38% chance of getting sow before I sprint off to go farm lvl 30 named for the 800th time....
