Setting Home Point

I was just thinking this when I logged in. It's a very basic functionality. Without it, the Return function is useless outside of when you die.

Ya, ever since they updated return its been bothering me too. Return in most games is used to take you back to your HP and in FFXI it was Warp which had the same function. In this game, thanks to the automatic home point system, the purpose of return is kinda defeated in my opinion. Even with Return costing 0 anima, you'll still waste time running after doing a leve or waste anima teleporting back to town.

I don't think so
Example: You set Gridania as your save point (it's a better word as home point). Now you are going to camp smaragd moos for crafting leves. Fast return to Gridania for 0 Anima and now you are going to the another camps for the crafting leves.

Turning in crafting leves is the only useful function for it imo. As i stated above, if you were at the camp for behest, guild leves or faction leves as opposed to turning in crafting leves; you would be stuck at the camp and forced to run back or waste anima to go back. Kinda kills the purpose of "Return" if you can't return back to town or your desired HP after doing a guildleve or faction. and While you can argue that it "returns" you to the camp, i can return to the camp by touching the aetheryte that pops when i finish the leve or if i die.

For example, take the horn and hand faction, while the leves are simple to do, its a pain if your running there or a lot of Anima, and by doing the leve your HP gets auto set to the camp. So even after the leve your stuck either wasting more time running back or wasting more anima.
