#Shorten Asoki Boat Travel Time

Right now it takes a disproportionate amount of time to reach the Mist village/travel to dz from the Mist village. The boat ride between Asoki and Mist port is noticeably longer than running across the ocean, costs ryo, and more often than not gets you scouted and killed if you're a non-Mist ninja.

From my perspective as a leaf player, shortening the boat travel time would better incentivize taking daily missions whose objectives are set in the Mist village, make it more convenient to get inside Mist furniture shop and arrest people, encourage more large scale raids on Mist/from Mist, and remove a barrier that discourages Mist presence in dz (I want more dz fights).

Make it 1 minute, a boat is supposed to be faster than running across the whole sea lmao

There could be some merit in making it faster, but for Mist ninja only, or perhaps even a special area Mist can enter the boat from to make it faster in that way.

Make it faster for Mist Only! That'd be neat

on second thought it should only be faster for leaf and sand to spite mist

Going to a raid from leaf to mist would be nice to have the boat be shorter as well since the mist fisherman of asoki always let you know we are coming anyway. I think being shorter for everyone is fine

It already was shortened for everyone previously, as it originally used to be a 5 minute boat ride, and is instead only 4 minutes currently.
I think shortening it for Mist could be interesting, as Mist ninja have to use the boat or run across the sea far more often than any non-Mist ninja who only have to take the boat ride or travel across the sea occasionally.
Mist have to take the boat or run the sea every single time we leave or enter our lands, if not spawning at Asoki, whereas non-Mist only have to take the boat or run the sea every time they wish to enter or exit the lands of a village they aren't part of.
Mist are bound to have to use the boat or run the sea far more often than non-Mist ninja.
RP-wise, it could make sense as well, because perhaps the RP explanation could be that Mist Shinobi ride on a separate boat from non-Mist, a boat which is faster, since it is the Mist Village the sailor is commissioned by RP-wise. (For example, a 3 minute boat ride for Mist ninja, and a 4 minute boat ride for non-Mist ninja.)
Alternatively, there could perhaps instead be a faster entry added for Mist Village ninja to just hop onto the boat directly from the Mist Village or something, as a special Mist only boat entry, for the same reason I described above that the sailor and boat are commissioned by the Mist Village for travel to and from the mainland.

As a member of Mist, I think it would be great to have a faster boat. Currently, it takes a long time to leave Mist, making missions, farming, or anything else outside of Mist tedious.

Especially when you leave and get killed by mobs or other players, having to wait another 4 minutes to get back and then continue walking is annoying.

Some options to solve this would be:

  1. Reduce the boat's travel time to Mist
  2. Instant boat service to Mist (only if Asoki is not contested)
  3. Allow respawning in Asoki
  4. Increased sea speed for Mist ninjas; this would help them travel across the sea faster and avoid the annoying boat.
