    Saving new players tons of time! :D

    Here is a well known secret I tell people all the time and even vets facepalm at the fact they never realized it.

    It's the one thing I make sure to tell all new players and I felt it required a post.

    During the early stages through the later stages of the storyline in the kagillion quests that require you to go to the waking sands there is no need for the annoying run, esp pre-choco license.

    Port to Limsa > arcanist guild (via aether network of course) > ferry

    puts you right outside the Waking Sands. Spread the word.

    You're welcome!!!

    I actually didn't know this; I'd been porting to the nearest Aetherite and running. Thanks!

    Also, the boat between Limsa Lominsa and Western Thanalan is cheaper than the airship between Limsa Lominsa and Ul'dah. It only saves a few gil, not generally enough to matter to high level players, but I remember when I was new and low level, when gil was just trickling in, the difference in price mattered for a while at that point.
