Talk:Pass the Wicket and descend/@comment-203.106.56.144-20160106033021/@comment-1743025-20160113032118

It's worth noting (because it had me worried and was throwing off all my estimates for how much Taste of Lacre I was going to need) that the 3 ToL here is an unlock requirement, but isn't spent. As long as you have 3+ ToL, you can go in and out of the wicket as many times as you like (or as long as your actions last).

I suspect the high action cost is to force a bit of thought & planning as to how one is going to use the wicket, but it does get frustrating when you need to enter, check the current price of a Noman, and then have to reenter after raising ToL. (of course, it's also possible that Penstock himself insisted on the action cost, just to keep the masses from constantly tromping their muddy lacre-covered boots back and forth through his nice clean land agency all month)
