porting delay - Phoenix Freeshard

get rid of it! nowadays its the most annoying thing on this server....
i mean what is it for? is it to prevent assassins to kill the enemy they lost to earlier and now want to kill it while they still have desease? or is it to prevent instant porting to keeps that being attacked? but why is it on keept that are not attacked?

i dont see any plausible reason here. help

There is a reason why it is in and there is also a reason why the duration of the delay is like it is. We think it is good as it is and we dont have any plans nor do we see any needs to change it.

Or in different words: NO.

would you be so kind to explain that?

It's not hard to grasp.

They introduced the delay when they added instant buffs. They clearly do not want full groups buffing in 10 seconds and porting back to a fight with no real delay and at full strength.

Yeah, i assume it is targeting zergfights at/close to portable keeps, that's why i suggested to make a difference between solos and groups, but aparently Uthred sees it different than i do.

Imo it could also exclude the EV teleporter, as that one is almost exclusively used for gvg. But again - maybe there are other reasons, why the DEVs want us to drink a coffee after respawn.

I would actually also appreciate elaboration into detail there rather than "No, because there are reasons"

I liked being able to corpse rush an open port
