However the maps will be completely different in ARR and may not require a mass amount of teleporting over 5 miles of repeated terrain :P
You're paying the Asura.

"A waypoint, or a magi-matter-transportive device, is a floating stone marker that players can instantly travel to by using the map. In lore, it is an asuran creation." You're using a device to attune yourself to a previously found waypoint.
