    [Dev Request] Please Don't Make Teleporting Too Expensive Beyond Eorzea.

    If teleporting from Uldah To Idyllshire is expensive, I'm worried about how how much it would be to teleport from Idyllshire To Ala Mhigo, if you think that sounds bad, imagine teleporting from Limsa Lominsa to Kugane. I would understand if it were a little more, but please not too much more. Our poor non crafting wallets can't take it.

    I have my current teleports split up so I can abuse them xD (free, favorite, return, FC). I'll just move one of my favorites or freebies to the new area and I should be good to roll, hopefully lol :3

    That said, the map makes the new areas look quite big.. If its as big as it looks perhaps we should ask for Expansion specific favorites. You get like 2-3 favorites PER continent?

    Or at the very least make the prices reset in non Eorzea areas. I.e. Teleporting from Gridania to Uldah is comparable to teleporting from Kugane to Doma.

    Is that not how it already works? I haven't gotten up to HW content myself to see, but costs always seem to be related to distance. If the distance is comparable, presumably the cost will be as well. Which also means traveling from one end of the map (Limsa) to the other (Doma or whatever) will be pricey.

    There is one way they could somewhat mitigate this, which is to just make this the edge of the world, or, in other words, have it wrap around, so that La Noseca is just a boat ride away from Othard. Lore-wise, it might be tricky to explain why you haven't been able to travel there before, maybe. But it could serve to reduce the costs if travel distance is shortened that way.

    Don't forget aetheryte tickets. If you have those, teleporting won't cost you gil.

    You already know the costs wont be high because convenience is everything in this game.

    Honestly I would have to stop and look at the costs of teleporting, I haven't looked at them in years lol. I constantly teleport from here to there and everywhere even before I got into crafting. I used to watch the teleport costs when I first started and new what items were good to sell on the market board.

    What I would like is not for cheaper teleports (though I hope they don't scale it too high), but - as I requested in 3.0 - can we PLEASE get another favoured destination. There are more zones now, and SE doesn't seem to compensate for the fact (we should also get another free retainer as well, but I guess inventory changes will fix that), can we at least get another favoured destination so that I can keep my old ones from 3.0 and set one for the 4.0 areas.

    It's not terribly difficult to make enough gil to cover teleport costs. Simply doing a daily trial roulette nets upwards of 9000 gil if I'm not mistaken - which should be more than enough to cover travel costs. There's also various ways to mitigate the fees such as securing aetheryte tickets, getting the 'reduced teleportation rate' buff for a free company and simply travelling as far as possible by foot.
