I pay 75p for a port when I'm able to. And if I don't have at least 200p for the cleric standing right next to me at zone in when I beg a rez, I feel like a bum. 300-500p to come run to rez me and 1k for really out of the way places.

Assuming the cleric doesnt have to move, I pay 50-75pp for a 96 rez and 40-50 for a 90, unless I'm grouped with the person in which case I expect it to be free. If the cleric has to travel, I will pay more. I once paid 1200pp for two rezzes in the bear pits, but I had to pick the guy up and run him all the way there, plus he had to bind in the pits and I had to gate us out then gate back, etc. He took a big risk.

It's always seemed crazy to me that most people will Tip more for a port than a rez. Most of the time people won't bother to tip at all, I understand maybe I was just running by and didn't have to go out of my way much, but at least throw some pp in the trade window to show you appreciated it, I will decline 90 percent of the time anyways, but a rez saves u alot more time than a port in experience I never understood why porting gets better tips than a 96 rez just because it's free with the epic?

I think the same people who tip big on ports will tip even bigger on a rez. Most people seem to agree a rez is worth more money than a port.

I tip 15pp to almost everyone I feel thats more than fair. On occasion a lucky porter might get a ruby or other gem, but 15pp is the price otherwise. Price goes up for certain things like traveling multiple zones ect, but I don't see greedy Druids/Wizards offering me discounted rates for having to pull for hours on end in every XP group.

But I forgot the DaP narrative that only Druids/wizards time is important... Maybe I should unionize the monks and we start charging an hourly rate for pulls.

I think Warriors should get 1pp per taunt cause it's not like they want mobs to attack them :P

I find it hard to believe that someone with a 60 would only tip 15 pp, what are you gonna spend the plat you save on? bandages? Then again I guess it makes sense as it seems most common for alts with 1000s of pp worth of equipment to tip the least.

People levelling legit or the first time always seem to appreciate ports more.
