I believe it would be beneficial to turn the mercy statue on in the snake pit by the hole to the UnderWorld.
New players will be able to use it as a quick way home. Similar to how it is currently used. New players generally have a hard time acquiring the recall potion necessary to use this mode of travel.
Some could argue that one would be able to use it without fear of death. Example being if someone is griefing you, and you use the Snake Pit hole to UnderWorld and pop a Recall. However, the hole spawns you in a random location on floor 4 so you can’t really pursue anyone this way. So there isn’t a change in mechanic. It just opens up the option to new players and would be a nice QoL adjustment.
