Reflection on the idea of teleport removal.

I think teleporting should stay but once the other methods of travel are in anima could be kicked up to its old regeneration rate.


Keep in mind anima was concieved so your friends didnt have to wait 30 minutes for you to get across the world to them.

I would gladly say goodbye to anima if they give us airships and chocobos. In fact, at first I thought that was "patch" thing due to the lack of other means of transportation, and it would be highly provisional... couldn't imagine lasting for long.

I would be in favor of this, once I get a chocobo!

remove the teleporting system is crazy !! please dont !!! NO WAY !

I don't care how it is done I want chocobos (various colored ones!), airships, the burden of anima done away with and scrolls/quests for travel.

TL;DR
-Chocobos
-Airships
-Goodbye Anima
-Teleport Scrolls

Scrolls? I'm not sure I'm really on board with that idea. Anima is fine, especially once we get alternate forms of travel. Hell if they wanted to decrease the rate of anima generation once we get them that's fine too.

Don't get rid of the teleport system. It is the best way to get to a camp in another area to join your friends for leves and behest or to get to an area for NM hunting. Making adjustments to it is fine as long within reason.

Airships would be nice to have to see the world from a different perspective. Even fighting a few stray flying mobs wouldn't be bad.

Chocobos would be a fun way to travel to distant camps and parts of the world. Raise our own colored chocobos and even enter in contests, races, and events. There could be leve runs where you act as a courier service to deliver items to camps via chocobo in a certain time frame.

I think people would use the chocobo more than the teleport, especially if they have to conserve anima better for very long distance camps to join groups. Once a better party system is in place with better search capabilities people can choose any method of travel depending on time restraints to join the groups.

Wish people weren't so quick to want to get rid of system that has practical uses.

I'm sorry but that makes absolutely no sense. What if you die and you have 0 anima? You're stuck dead until you passively generate enough to return? Also how would that make any sense if the same function requires 0 anima when you're alive?

When you die with 0 anima, "return" costs 0 anima, obviously. Forcing the player to wait 3 hours would be ridiculous.

I mean I never see anyone on the damn ferry.

The only reason I don't use the ferry is because it's too far to run. I just stay in one area instead. However I'd be more likely to use it if I had a chocobo.

I'd have to be against taking it out, if not for myself, then for the fact it would be a downpoint to a lot of people, and we don't need to turn people away over a simple point. I agree it's a silly reason, but then, some were turned away just because there was no AH. However, I agree with the anima system. Have it there, but keep it limited.

I say restrict teleport to the 3 city-states and give a "insert job here" only spell to tele people to camps or any of the future areas. I'll gladly taxi ppl no charge just as I did in XI.
