    If you're using mouse and keyboard, are you able to click the main aetheryte as soon as you load in, or do you still have to walk right up to it first?
    Still need to walk up to it. We're actually interacting with it at a fair distance. I'm guessing it's the gap that throws players off.

    We also have to walk closer to use the Limsa Aetheryte after teleporting in so I'm confused on why people are acting like it's only a problem with S9.

    Limsa feels different though, plus very often I'm teleporting there intending to go to the marketboard first rather than immediately teleport elsewhere in the city. (Especially now that I've hit the point where the "straight to Maelstrom GCHQ" tickets are feeling like a good deal for getting there.)

    The Crystarium also had an issue with aetheryte targeting (it's up quite high and often requires you to adjust your camera to target it) but that isn't an endgame hub so doesn't have the same constant need to revisit it.

    The S9 aetheryte feels very claustrophobic despite (or perhaps due to) it being so big and yet you can only access it by going into those tiny nooks in the barrier around it and not from a distance that feels natural.

    It is its own problem that with some aetherytes, after teleporting to them, it's not always possible to interact without moving closer. But with Solution 9, even when you feel you have walked up to it, it still is often not enough and it would be if there wasn't this giant gap that required you to be at the very edge.

    They should go through all the aetherytes in the game and adjust the pop radius so that every teleport drops you within range of aetheryte interaction.
