Portal in Cordor prevents traffic past temporary shops.
it occurs to me that the portal lowers traffic leaving the city and going past the temporary shops.
Perhaps we can get it moved to it's super old previous location by the old man out the front of cordor so people are encouraged to walk past rather than vanish out the backdoor of the city.

While we're at it, can we make it a two-way portal and remove the Cordor Frontier destination? Having it on Surface just adds extra loading screens (And makes it so you have to server transition twice if you're teleporting from somewhere on C&P Server or Distant Shores, to Cordor).

Re: Portal in Cordor prevents traffic past temporary shops.
It was really frustrating when I was trying to get between Sibayad and Cordor when surface was down. It would be nice if there was a destination portal on the cities server.
I haven't had issues with temp stalls though. I sell a lot of furniture out of them. There's still a lot of traffic around Cordor, especially since the portal to the city isn't within the city itself. If you're not seeing a lot of people, just be patient. There are less active times of day.
If you're having trouble selling things, it might just be the stuff you're trying to sell. I see a lot of things for sale in temp shops that would be better off being vendored, like random stat stuff from dungeons. Most of the loot in lowbie areas is not desirable. If you want to sell things, have a look around town and see what nobody else was selling. For a while there wasn't an ingot shop, but a few have sprouted up. Spell components you could probably make and sell, just see what other people are selling them for around Cordor and undercut them since you're relying on having a temp stall. Arcane wands are common, but you could try selling them. I had interesting experiences selling wands in temp stalls, people start asking for things not sold in player shops. I could never sell a mage armour wand in an actual shop, but in a temp stall it sold better than shadow conjuration. People specifically asked for mage armour wands. I'm not sure if there is a cleric or druid wand shop around Cordor. I've heard ranger wands are good for one with the land and camouflage, although there's items that accomplish both those. For bard wands, I'd be interested in a good hope wand. Paladin scrolls and wands are a thing of legend you could make big bank off of. Isabel probably still has scrolls in her shop, so unless you want to undercut her you might want to skip scrolls. Another crafting thing you could make would be materials. Glass, bottles, and vials. There used to be a bottle shop in Cordor. Sadly I'm not quite sure what people are willing to pay for bottles, or how well it would fare in a temp stall.

Re: Portal in Cordor prevents traffic past temporary shops.
There arent any exit portals inside settlements (except for the Hub, which works only for locals) intentionally. Something to do with raids.

Re: Portal in Cordor prevents traffic past temporary shops.
Guldorand's is right outside of their settlement. Bendir's is right outside of their settlement. Brogendenstein's is right outside of their settlement.
I agree with the Cordor Frontier being on surface, because it's really horrible crossing servers all the time when doing writs and losing buffs/summons. But it would be nice if Cordor's exit portal was on the same server as Cordor.
