Teleport , Anima, Chocobos

[Carzilla]

Teleporting Should be a High level spell Earned by the magic classes and anima should be abolished with the arrival of chocobos and airships.

No.

While I agree with the teleporting idea that was FFXI, I totally disagree with anima abolition. I think that they could include "crag" type points in the game for mages to teleport to ala-FFXI, they still need to keep it balanced via anima so we don't have ridiculous teleportation fees like the WHMs created in FFXI. Seriously, do you want to pay 4k for a stupid teleport because some jack-wipe "deserves" to be compensated for taking the time out of his busy schedule to teleport you? Derp.

no .

[Carzilla]

true about the Wht mages. Just increase anima cost. With the arrival of new transportation.

Well I know without asking (compensation) or offering (teles) I have had people shout for them in all areas and been offered upwards of 15k so... I agree with you guys but it still happens even if you don't ask for gil. I think for us former XI players it's a given with what you mentioned. Only difference is, it's not as difficult at all to make gil in XIV as it was in XI. So I don't think it would matter much. But, let's keep the anima as is even after the addition of Chocobos and Airships especially since we aren't still aware of how we go about using the Airships. Anyone remember the quest to get your Airship pass for XI or the choice to pay 500k?! Haha... I sure do. So let's see what happens.

Well, I understand the idea of aboloshing anima because the points where you can "tele" to are so many and everywhere. The game just feels extremely small because of it. That said considering how you have to go to different cities etc. just to quest I can't see abolishing anima as a real option, even with new and faster traveling methods. I think something should be done, but I dunno what.

Exactly the game feels very small. To have the ability to teleport at will from anywhere has you miss out on the sights. This game has atherites allover the place. Teleporting from atherite to atherite seems to be a better option.

To have the ability to teleport at will from anywhere, with no back story as to why you have the ability to do so makes it feel cheap and takes away from the game.
