    Yeah, but I'm talking about 2.0 or like 2.1 era... I distinctly remember people waiting for rezzes and just more people dead in random places in the map, though maybe it was a carried over tradition from other MMOs? There was (is?) and achievement for rezzing people outside of your party.

    May be a Mandela effect or something lol.

    Never heard that back in ARR, although there's alot of rezzing when I leveling via FATE on big boss FATE such as Gorgimera that I get Good Samaritan early

    I may be remembering incorrectly myself, but I believe this was a thing in FFXI...you lost xp in that game if you died, and the loss was greater if you chose the respawn rather than being rezzed by someone else.

    I know back in my day we had this thing called a brain. It's crazy, it lets you think you know what? I don't wanna return to a lvl90 area so I'll set a lvl1 area as my home point.

    If you wanna really big brain it you'd set Old Sharlyan as your return point and set the 3 cities as your favoured so you save even more money as Sharlyan is one of the most expensive places to port.

    There is the other thing were money is literally no object in this game as it has zero value so who cares about prices.

    You are correct people used to wait on & ask for reses in zones more back in 2.0. A lot of 2.0 zones were slower to travel through and I think it was a cultural hang up compared to our current understand of the game. Especially since most areas only have 1 aetheryte so people didn't want to run back out.

    Two suggestions.

    1. Any time you switch classes...teleport to the place you want to make as your home and do that.

    2. Stop dying.

    Asking for individual home bases for each and every class is just nonsense.

    Yeah, that makes sense.
    I wasn't sure if any XP was lost or something, but everyone's pretty much confirmed that never happened, so it probably was just "the MMO thing to do". Good times.

    I am sorry, i don't get the point here. Even if you are unwilling to reset your Home Aetheryte with one Job at lvl 90 1500Gil for a teleport is pocket change.

    Hey! Great opportunity to learn about the benefits of two-factor authentication! Get you a security token or software authenticator and BAM you got yourself a second FREE teleport location you can set wherever you need.

    .
    Big brain is doing weekly Rank B hunt bills at a minimum for a handy supply of Aetheryte tickets so you don't pay teleport fees at all.
