Same thing again.

Started on my 6th zone in Shadowbringers.

1. Collect aether currents
2. Do enough fates to get increased mount speed.
3. Do quests for the locals to get upgraded gear and aether currents
4. Deal with the end boss eventually.

I've done this 5 times now. The only thing keeping my interest is how the "light" problem will be resolved.

It's almost like breaking something down into basic core elements can make anything sound similar.

How much more do you actually expect within the limitations of this game?

[Zhamkyong]

It sounds *exactly* as every other game i know: Go to area > do things > finish the problem > go to the next. I am mostly doing roulettes to level up so i can chill and complete the maps with other jobs when I finish the main scenario.

You know you don't...have to.... do all the aether currents and mount speed stuff before moving zones? I didn't finish gathering half the aether currents until after I finished the MSQ.

There really isn't much point going around a zone collecting all the green aether currents when it's the red quest related ones that will keep your flying grounded. What I typically do when exploring areas of a new expansion is spam the aether compass while going to my destination to see if there are any nearby. If there is I will pick them up, but I won't go out of my way for a current that 300+ yalms away.

Sometimes I fel like I'm the only one who actually enjoys hunting for aether currents heh.

Naah you're not.
I always got a kick out of getting the attunement the moment I finish the MSQ of a zone.

As for the increased ride speed: didn't see the point, waste of prerfectly good gems if you ask me. It's not as if the zones were huge and we were on foot.

Newp. I get mine too.

1. Collect aether currents - Be Happy that it's not like WoWs flight, do you want to get every beast tribe to max just to have p1 unlocked.
2. Do enough fates to get increased mount speed. - I found that I did this completely passive and after 30 mins had it unlocked and the gems to buy it, even before coming across the vendor
3. Do quests for the locals to get upgraded gear and aether currents - core element to most games do quest get gear.
4. Deal with the end boss eventually - like every other game in this gen that's ever been made.

How you have changed each zone so they didn't have any of these aspects?
