Suggestion - World Visit in Kugane?

[Limonia]

The bots would have to buy the expansions first.

The crafting bots already have them though.

At the least it might relieve some of the congestion in Limsa if there were more options.

I mean, can't you just, like, go there after visiting one of the starting city states? You can still teleport, can't you?

Yes but it puts unnecessary traffic to the main cities... and more "work" to the whole system as you always gonna need at least 4 teleports...

There was already unnecessary traffic to main cities before the world visit feature was added. And I doubt a couple teleports is really going to bring down their servers.

I doubt it would change anything. The MBs being right next to the Limsa Aetheryte is too convenient for those using world visit to check MBs. I can use the Aethernet to get to the MB in Ul'dah just as fast as using the Aethernet to get to the Kugane MB, and both are slightly faster than sprinting across the bridge in Kugane (may be different for someone with exceptionally long load times when using the Aethernet in those cities).

Still, you're looking at 4-5 seconds each way in Limsa versus 14-15 seconds each way in Ul'dah or Kugane. If people were inclined to use a different city state for MB access, they already would be. The starter city states also house all the GCs, making it more convenient to use them for world visit since the player probably already has at least one of them set as a free/favored/Return destination.

If you really want to reduce congestion in Limsa, get the players who hang out there doing nothing to find a new spot. They were causing congestion in Limsa before world visit was added.

Don't forget Ishgard

Don't forget Ishgard

With the firmament, I'm often popping around trying to find mats so the process is usually me going from the Firmament>Jeweled to check prices>Limsa>Other world>Home world>Ishgard>Firmament. This would most likely become Firmament>Jeweled to check prices>Aetheryte>Other world Jeweled>Aetheryte back home>Firmament. Still lots of bamfing around, but just 1 less.

Would be absolutely great to have a MB over where we found the flyer in the first place because the best thing about Limsa is that the MB is right there no matter where you spawn. And on PS4, you're going to be in black purgatory regardless but Limsa makes it hurt a lot less.

Then id say Se has to react and move the MBs away...

[Valkyrie_Lenneth]

Not sure why people are shooting this down. It doesn't hurt anything and can only be useful.

[Doozer]

How would moving the market boards away help anything? People will just find the most efficient city to go to and congregate there, even if it's only 0.5 seconds faster than another one.

I'm glad all the main cities are different, and not just MBs next to aetherytes copied and pasted.
