Hopefully they will consider this for Chocobo rentals as well in 1.19. I am already of having to hoof it on foot from Dragonhead to the Darkhold and from Glory to the little town for that quest, WTB Chocobo!!!

Honestly I think this is an awful idea unless you plan on having those NPCs charge more for repairs because they offer a service that saves the player time. As I see it now it takes 10 deaths to go from 100-0% durability if you don't raise or return so the issue comes down to players just not playing carefully. During a normal leve run you shouldn't have to repair your gear and if you gear is being damaged a lot from dungeons then you need to play more careful.
I just hope that if the devs do decide to add this they incure a 100% tax for said repairs so at least those who are more fickle with their money may reconsider using it and actually go back to town. I mean with chocbos and airships being introduced in the near future I feel this issue will go away.
This is a WONDERFUL idea. I hate having to rely on my Linkshell or running back to the cities when I'm out of Anima just to repair my stuff since I can't do it myself.
Having one at every camp would be nice. At this point, I'd even settle for them at the Hamlets that are scattered about that really don't do much of anything at all.
Yeah I agree. Repair NPC and a trash vendor so you don't need to waste anima or 45 minutes walking to town to sell all the useless crap you pick up
Honestly, I do not expect to have rentals at every camps, I think the new outposts should have stables, the old little towns like Aleport and Golden Bazaar should have them, the ferry dock should have one. Also maybe one or 2 select Leve camps should have them. I think Dragonhead of Glory should have it for sure in Coerthas, with Dragonhead being right near Ishgard it wouldnt be a bad idea that or make the higher level camps in the zones have it.
The mini settlements recently introduced? Yeah that would be a nicer place to put them rather than every camp i guess. I hope they liven those settlements up a bit more as well, they feel a little dull right now, but im guessing thats coming in a future patch anyway :)
