    There is no costs related on it but it would not take you long to print it out and have your prices hand written along the lines for your own reference.

    If you do that, methinks you're taking PWI a LITTLE too seriously...

    Now where we would need a binder with spreadsheets? Or a printer for that matter? PWI working=internet working.

    Usually that would work.

    My PC does not like me running too many things even considering I play the game on its lowest settings.

    Switching the game back and forth to EI drags my PC.

    If that's an issue you could always keep a folder for your PWI related stuff on your comp. Pics and notepad shouldn't give that kind of issues.

    Funny how everyone always yes to devs to make a coinsink, and than want the current coinsink removed.

    Seriusly dude, you rather have constand inflation like they had it in post war germany? You know, a sandwich costing 1mil on one day, than 2mil on the next, than 4mil, than 8mil, ect.
    That's what will probably happen here if we lose all ways of coin sink. 'We'v SEEN it happen with chests of coins and tenmil bignotes from tokens of best luck.

    Take your pick. Either you fly costing you the coin you would have made grinding, or be lazy and teleport saving time you can grind, or mix it for maxium efficiancy (which takes some brains)

    I fly all the time, not because I think its fun or anything just because it is free. I often auto path and then sit down and read my book. All this flying have taken me through 281 pages in the book which I only read while flying.

    I don't care much about teleporting, but I can understand the topic starter. Pwi is more about money than it is a game since to many of the players are to greedy. Everything costs a 1mil today so putting money in teleporting is rich mans luxury.

    I Auto-path and play my PSP...or do homework...or sleep.

    It's all about how you use that downtime that decides if it's worth it or not. It always is for me.

    if they reduced the price of tele by 1 WHOLE 0 at the end, the price of mounts and aeros, ESPECIALLY aeros, will plummet.

    thats what they are FOR: for lazies. if ur REALLY lazy, just pay for teleport. see the pattern? pwi doesnt like laziesb:chuckle

    This was exactly what I was thinking. Everyone complains that there aren't enough coinsinks, then I see threads like this.

    I support the idea. The game's economy is **** as it is. We might as well save money somewhere in this game without taking forever auto-pathing somewhere.

    You do not have to use the teleporter, it is more a matter of convenience.

    There is a fly and auto-path feature b:surrender

    Well, no offense, but you are an elf, which means you've been able to fly since level 1. The rest of us pay millions just by teleporting before level 30, and there are a LOT of quests that require us to go trekking halfway across the map. And...well, walking/swimming isn't fun. It's slow, time consuming, and there are times where you have to run through flocks of monsters thirty levels higher than you. b:surrender

    So I agree with lowering the prices, at least for us who must run everywhere. We don't even make that much money in lower levels unless we spam the hell out of the cash shop early on and sell for coins.

    Pay for convenience. Its the exact same in real life. You can cook your own food for a low cost, or you can be lazy and order take out/delivery/dine out for a cost.

    What grinds my gears: People that insist to fly on their slow 0.5m/s to and from Head Hunter to BH69. Just use some teleports people, dont make your entire squad wait for you to save 10k.

    First off, as someone (>_>) said earlier, PW and RL should not be compared. Most of us play this to escape the RL hectic-ness.

    Secondly, maybe at lvl 69 you're all rich, but I know sometimes money can be a little tight, and so I will fly everywhere on my slow .5m/s mount, because that's the only one I have. There's no way I'd be able to afford buying a mount in-game anytime soon, and well CS isn't an option either.

    I fully support the lowering of teleport costs! b:surrender

    I have a BM and a wiz. I ran everywhere pre-30 and flew everywhere post-30 on my 0.5m/s mount for another 50 levels. That included 2 hour world quests.

    Teleporting is a luxury. You use it if you can afford it, and fly if you can't or don't want to. It's that simple. There's no point playing a game if you want to fast track wherever you want to go.

    Welcome to reality. PWI is no different.

    You do not understand how frustrating it is waiting for a bh squad member. The rest of the squad teleports in, while you fly, taking up 10 minutes of everyone's time. And, you do this multiple times, to leave and re-enter the instance for multiple BH's.

    I remember squading with a particular barb. Me and other members arrived at the bh79 (unwined styg run). This greedy **** barb flies all the from archosaur to bh79, and arrives right when we get to the boss. See how unfair that is? He spents nothing, does nothing, and gets everything. Go fly when you're not squading with others. When you're in a squad like bh, think of others.

    Um... teleport vs teleacustic.
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    Millions? I just recently leveled a character from 1-30 and the only time you HAVE to teleport (still don't have to, but it's difficult) is from your home city to the other home cities and then to arch at level...19 I think? Under 30 I would only use teleports to Etherblade, Plume, Lost City, and Arch. With the lack of quests requiring that, I highly doubt the 1k home teleports + 8k arch teleports add up to millions.

    I agree with this thread, you can easily spend over 30k on teles just to help out a friend who happens to be half way across the map. Then another 30k to get back to where you were.

    Or you can be economical about it and tele for 1k to a major city, then 200 coins to a nearby village if it gets you any closer, and then fly the rest of the way.

    Teleport price is ok, it still fair price.

    But, yeah . . . i rather teleport rather waiting my aerocraft or mount travel. b:surrender
    Time is precious, but teleport is a coin sink too.

    Imagine if it become cheaper :
    (pvp) Many will teleport to avoid pk.
    (pve) PWI get less income from mount and aerocraft sales, because everyone teleport.
    (inrl) I can't leave my character afk travel anymore because of cheap teleport, make me keep sit watching my pc monitor. b:shocked (lol)
