Any talk about them doing away with Aether Currents for flight

[Bright-Flower]

I'll be honest, they appeal to the collector in me. I like hunting them down as I quest in a zone for the first time and seeing the diamonds fill on the aether current window. Just don't do anything like that Lochs one again.

I do agree that I don't like them on the first step of a quest chain, however. Would much rather the quest ones be kept to MSQ and stand alone quests.

I'm of two minds on the side quest ones.

On the one hand, they tend to be some of the more interesting quest lines and it's nice to have something nudge people towards them, without requiring them to do the entire quest lines if they don't want to.

But I think aether currents would also work just fine if it was just the story completion and exploration based ones involved.
