What are you on? DAP porters have NEVER told me how much they wanted for a port. I'm fairly sure you're completely wrong and that the opposite is true - it's in the DAP rules that they CAN'T demand or request compensation and can't even set a recommended price.

10-15pp for a port is more than fair at any level

Is that so? Weird, if so. I guess I've only met good, nice porters then. Literally every single one was so incredibly adamant about not giving me any kind of price that I figured it was part of the guild rules that they just can't ask for compensation.

I played a wizard back in the day, have one on green.
Depends on your level/gear. For most,
level 1-20th Free-1pp
20th+ 1pp-5pp
50th+ 15-50pp ( location matters too, like say Emerald Jungle or Wakening lands should be 50pp+, there's a real chance for instant death)
My ports were always free back in the day and still are, because I knew how to make ridiculous amounts of money really fast. The people porting to make money are the ones that are going to complain. You never make a port class to make money, farming is exponentially faster. I can port to multiple locations and make 100's PP in minutes.

My wizard 54th level, Highkeep guards, low level guards drop Fine steel everytime, there's a ton of them (10+), easy 100-200pp as fast as you can kill them. There's even a neutral vendor you can sell to after killing town guards here, so probably the best for most classes that have trouble getting around, even a bank too.

Treants South Karana, if they aren't camped, spawn in the same place every 4 min, drop coin like Hill Giants and items to sell for PP, only have 600hp. Best to destroy all your copper and silver at this camp, you get 1000's very quickly.

The 3 Ice Giants in Everfrost, best when no one is camping so you get all 3, trio/quading them makes very fast cash. Bit of Xp too

Usually 1pp per level, but typically 50p after level 50. If you're a youngin (lvl 1-20) with no plat will typically be free of charge. CRs are also free and Clerics should also ride free (thank you for all you guys do). Monks can tip in gems and can't hold anything past 24 weight without getting penalized.

Please tip your porters fair otherwise they will think it's not worth porting and move on to better things.
