"bad for server health"... Literally move hundreds of players each day from zone to zone moving the economy along, letting people gain exp faster by getting to where they need to be, and whatever else they need.

But you're right, one druid thinking he has the freedom of choice in a video game makes the entire enterprise of doing porting deeds for hundreds of players is "bad".

If it takes a bard a whole week to get to 30, they are doing it wrong. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

And that comment right there is why bards have the stigma they have.

What you describe isn't the intent of the game. It's not supposed be about constantly moving around instantly from point A to point B to just farm more shit and powerlevel faster.

To some people that is exactly the reason that they play the game. And we provide player the ability to do that.

If this wasn't the intent of a Druid and Wizard then why give them porting abilities at all?

That's... moronic. Druids and wizards both port and were designed around having access to "fast travel" for their group. This is no different than the roaming guilds of Mana burning wizards we saw on live, pre-nerf.

Edit to add: And bards are a shadow here of what they were on live... so many niche abilities and little things you could do by knowing how the class "worked." Here the majority just want to see how fast they can solo.

Excuse you, my druid is not a mindless portbot! I think it's time you learn how to play the class you've been exploiting for money :| I challenge you to duo with my monk and get Afeni up to 49 without PLing!
