Aetheryte in Whitebrim?

[Moqi]

The implication being it's pointless to have to travel anywhere you need to do something?

Did I say that? No.

[SeleneVenizelos]

Did I say that? No.

Yes.

It's pointless to travel there everytime.

Unless you like to sight see the Whitebrim Front, you're travelling there to do something are you not? Broaden that point (because it's safe to assume you do a lot of other things in other equally 'far' places) and you're implying it's pointless to travel to somewhere you have something to do. If this is not what you meant, specifically with Whitebrim, please correct me and I will retract my comments.

Did I say I have a problem with traveling anywhere else? No.

[Tashigi]

No.
If anything, remove a bunch of these teleport things. World is so tiny as it is, teleport makes it feel even smaller.

My favorite is the distance from Quarrymill to Hawthorne.

When I first saw that I was like .... what is this I don't even.

In 1.0 we walked 15 minutes between Aetherytes.

Personally, I wouldn't object to having only one of those giant aetherytes in every zone (there is really no need for more than one in any zone). Then, put those littlle mini aetheryte in all the little outposts in Eorzea.

For example: Southern Shroud, put a big one in either Quarry or Tranquil, and put a mini one at the other one and at Buscarron's place.
Or for Coerthas, have the big one at Dragonhead, and put the mini one at Whitebrim and the Observatorium.

I don't mind riding the bird, but I wouldn't object to faster options if they were made available.

[Moqi]

Because I don't find them boring. The road form Dragonhead to Whitebrim is. Seriously, nobody wants to read this back and forth for over a page. My post was pretty clear.

No matter how ridiculously easy they make traveling in MMOs, there's always someone who thinks it should be even easier. This is what happens when you design your "MMO" for people who prefer lobby games.

Touché! ^^

The world is small enough, people wants to be in one town and then hop into an instance to get them where they want to be.. Seriously..

Wants to see the world: don't want to get out cause it's boring to travel.

Perhaps asking SE so Alchemist or Culinarian would make a special potion/food for our mounts to give them a speed boost? Like these 15 sec and 5 min cooldowns lol

Please look forward to 3-star mats required and 4-star crafts ^^

Edit: Thinking about this again, some Hunter Groups would have an advantage, so nope.

[Zephyranthes]

There's actually a background story why certain towns have an Aetheryte.
