Let's say I get to Tier 2 of one of the current Gates, like Jade Titan. Of course I'll be able to go back to Moorcraft free of charge after that.

Now, what happens when Jade Titan gets bumped off the Gate rotation? Jade Titan might show up again in the future, or course. And when/if it ever does, will I still be able to go back down to Moorcraft for free? Or will I have to earn that free pass again by repeating Tier 1?

Then again, now that I understand the sheer number of possible Gates there are, it seems almost pointless to get a free pass like that, since the odds of you seeing it again in the near future are slim.

once you reach tier 2,

once you reach tier 2, Moorcraft, on any gate, you will be able to go there for 200 crowns and 10 CE on any gate. It does not have to be the same one. the price difference from starting at T1 is only the 200 crowns and its almost always better to do T2

Nope, the free clearance

Nope, the free clearance resets once the gate goes off rotation. If another Jade Titan gate appeared, you wouldn't get free Moorcroft passage until you cleared Tier 1 again.

Tested in Onyx Falcon, which actually HAS appeared more than once in semi-quick succession.

@gigafreak:

Um, no. Once you get clearance for t2, you can go to ANY Moorcroft atr any time.

Unless I misunderstood what you said?

Gigafreak gets what I'm

Gigafreak gets what I'm saying. I know you can access Moorcraft after getting clearance, for the price of 10CE and 200CR. What I'm talking about is the free pass you recieve, the white star, which allows you to warp to Moorcraft free of charge.

Anyways, that sort of sucks that you can't keep the free pass forever. The price for T2 isn't that high though, so it's not like it's a big deal. It's just that this information makes doing T1 completely pointless for me now, so I no longer feel the need to earn the free pass on every gate when just warping to T2 straight away is just faster and more profitable in the long run even with the fee.

Emphasis was on "Free." Once

Emphasis was on "Free." Once you clear Depth 7 of a gate, you can skip the 200-Crown fee for jumping to Tier 2 in that gate until it cycles out. That's the free clearance we're talking about.
