    Its not as easy as that. You spend 40 seconds running from the Idyllshire Aetheryte or 1 minute going from Anyx Trine in the Forelands. This is more than enough time for a hunt group to pull the mob during peak hours and kill it before you get there. Hell, you can miss the 2AM unspoiled node in Hinterlands because of this as well.

    That being said, I think it would be really cool if the goblins eventually rebuilt Sharlayan (including but not limited to Idyllshire) and restored those aether shards as well as added other interesting things to the dravanian hinterlands region. Goblin beast tribe camp area comes to mind.
    They already said in the last Live Letter that they will be making travel into the Hinterlands easier.

    If you are in Anyx Trine when a mob pops up in the Hinterlands, you don't deserve the hunt credit sorry to say. Even if you are relaxing in Idyllshire, you are using 2nd hand knowledge from people who actually hunt. I hate to sound mean, but that's life. Only people who deserve the credit for the hunt is the person/people there at the mob who actually spent the time hunting instead of doing something else. If you want the rare gathering nodes, do what most people do: camp the area where it spawns so you're ready for it.

    Set your HP in Idyllshire and spend the whole "40" seconds it takes to zone to the Hinterlands. It won't kill you.
