    Favoured locations definitely help, although it would be good if they could add one more choice with each expansion! Three plus a home point were fine in ARR, but the number of - and distance between - cities keeps going up while the teleport options remain the same.

    I mean, depending on where and why you teleport, walking/flying isnt possible - I have my gathering routes, that require me to be in Coerthas at 6 (paprika), in The Lochs at 10 (Evergleam), in The Fringes at 12 (Gyr Abania Ore) and in Yanxia at 2 (Yanxia Cotton Balls)...

    But yeah, during something like the MSQ I prefer walking aswell, because the game and the landscape is indeed gorgeous - no matter how many people complain about textures and the like.

    With the ease you can get today teleport tickets, the teleport rates are a thing of the past.

    My authenticator free teleport is Limsa which early on was a great choice since it has easy access to the waking sands via the boat and essentially cuts costs when getting from Stormblood zones back to ARR zones. Even now its a good choice since its my chosen Grand Company and has easy access to vendors and the market board.

    My Return is set to Rhalgr's. I go there often enough that having it also be free is a great choice and gives me access to the Gyr Abania region cheap.

    I have an apartment in Shirogane which cuts my costs for going to the Doma regions tremendously.

    My favored destinations are New Gridania, Ul'dah and Foundation to get around the world cheap.

    On top of all that I have a metric ton of the 40% cost reduction tickets from squadron missions.

    A good way to make some quick gil on a new character is to do every guildhest once on all the jobs you have leveled for the gil bonus. No more worries about teleports and repairs.

    They also gave a discount Return to use recently. Self-destruct and BLU for a return that only costs like 30 Gil or so.

    I literally have so much money that it doesnt bother me. Literally running a roulette a day, the 9000 gill funds all my transporting needs and that is only trial roulette.

    As just about everyone else has said, you'll get to that point where a 999 tele isn't anything major.

    With that said - I really don't like spending 999 on a tele myself D: I have plenty of gil, and I definitely waste it in far more ridiculous ways, but that 999 port just kills me. lawl.

    Hey that thousand gil adds up, especially if you do gathering and crafting.
    I ran around like crazy to get all of crafters and gatherers to the current level cap in SB, my tickets probably saved me a mil on that alone.

    It can be rough when starting out, but don't worry. Most people learn to manage their gil in a way where they acquire more than they spend, and it gradually builds up on its own so long as you don't go crazy with major purchases. It just takes a little while to unlock enough content to get to that point. Until you do establish an equilibrium with the game's economy, I would reduce teleporting as much as possible.

    First and foremost, set your home point to the aetheryte you visit the most. I am not sure if you have access to Kugane yet, but once you do you need to make a decision about if it will be Eorzea or Othard that you will spend most of your time at, and set your HP to one of those aetherytes. If you have/get a residence, this decision is easy.

    Being frugal with your teleports is advised as well. As an example take care of all the things you need to in one zone/continent before porting over to the next. Airship travel will also open up as you progress the MSQ, which also helps to reduce port costs. Utilize a chocobo/falcon porter, ferry, airship etc. if you can before porting. Bloodporting is also an option if your return is on cooldown.

    One thing I know for sure is I didn't make my first million being reckless with teleport costs, and I still don't to this day and usually only port if my destination cannot be reached from my current location in a single load screen.
