Work as porter

[Redish]

In the Court the work as porter tab allows players to earn quick cash through the sale of turns at a rate of 10 - 25 gc per turn. Perhaps it is time for a rate increase or even for the function to be removed. It is doubtful that anyone uses it in the current form.

It's helpful to those who have had everything taken from them, ships and all. I do agree the rate could be increased maybe to 20-35.

If you lost everything, you played poorly or weren't active enough. Furthermore, if you are in a good guild and have good friends, rebuilding is quite easy. One can also apply for a loan. Working as Porter is not something I would consider if I were rebuilding.

I'm hesitant on saying that it needs to be removed, but it's usefulness outside of new players is severely limited.

The only reason I can think of as to why anyone would burn turns working as a porter is if they have nothing else to do with those turns- but even then it would be better to burn those turns on treasure hunts then porter working.

It's completely useless. Even a new player is better served just doing the quests with their turns. You will make substantially more. I see no reason to ever work as a porter, like ever.

[PFH]

Why don't we add new features to it? like work the port for a large merchant, then he pays you and donates extra crates to your port warehouse as a gift. Something like that would make it interesting

IIRC, It is a quest item, to use the porter. So new players "have" to use it to complete a quest, which is why I said it's usefulness outside of new players is severely limited.

True, I agree with you entirely. Outside of using it to complete the quest us bears no value currently.
