Quests to replenish anima

Anima isn't going to be the only form of transportation, so I don't see the reasoning behind quests to replenish anima.

I could see them adding quests to temporarily increase anima regeneration, or increase the amount of anima a person can hold. like 125 or 150 at max.

I would rather buy Anima potions with guild marks.

you must really abuse your anima if you're wanting quests to recharge it =p Just imagine when the cost was higher and charge was slower hehe

Or gils. This game needs a consistent gils sink

I don't think I ever got below 75. But I have played with people and read comment about players that are in continuous anima shortage.

Point was that it could make you feel like you achieve something that serves you instead of just waiting for animas to replenish automatically with time.

Problem is that gil is so abundant it would make anima almost unlimited, guild marks are much more hard to come by.

I made an earlier thread about this, and from the replies I have received. The transportation system is being worked on, so we don't know for sure if this will be suitable if airships and chocobos will be around

Agreed and that's why it would need balancing. For example you could limit the amount of animas you could buy per hour, or limit the destinations you could reach with bought animas, for example, only cities + favored locations.

Also, creating a consistent gils sink like teleportation would actually slow down the increasing "uselessness" of gils

Just give me a chocobo and airship travel and I'm good to go. Quests for Anima bahhh!

Regardless there will always be a need for teleportation, maybe less than now I agree.

My point was not exclusively that anima are insufficient so we need other options to replenish them. It was also that I thought that it could be a good idea to implement content around the ability to teleport since it is a core aspect of gameplay.
