Island Sanctuary Teleportation

Opinions are like..

I can tolerate having to go through an extra step to get into Firmament, so this doesn't bug me too much.

I think it's probably more of a technical issue then an oversight personally.

Plot twist, there is a giant aetheryte to excavate from your island.

It would make sense to first only get there by boat and Lower La Noscea is the closest dock..
And later, through upgrading the island and increasing your rank, you can build an Aetheryte so everyone with access and the owner itself of course can teleport there. I hope they consider it for later upgrades of the feature because I think they would've mentioned it if it was already part of the upgrading process.

wouldn't be surprised

similar to how the doman enclave didn't initially have an aetheryte til it was "fixed up" a bit

It's most likely a technical reason. I mean we're talking about everyone having their own island. That means they would need to set a different teleport for everyone individually. There's no instance I can think of where you can teleport straight to a personal area.

they know people will storm the island, like thousands of people will go there in an instant and the server can't keep up with it.

Fine, then if you see people's engagement with the content start dropping then you know what went wrong and that I tried to advocate for the clear and obvious fix.

Our lord and prophet aveyond is here to tell what's up. Island Sanctuary was doomed from the start it seems

[Rilifane]

Aetheryte would be my preferred solution but tickets for Island Sanctuary currency would also work well.
I like that suggestion, it would also keep farming it more relevant because I suspect we'd run out of things to buy after a bit. Free teleports to somewhere are always nice.

For the record, I agree and would very much like and prefer to being able to warp to the island but I also understand this games engine with instances is very finicky and I'm pretty sure the devs have thought about this issue and figure they'll find a solution somewhere down the road. Point being is they wanted to release IS as it's a hyper piece of content for this game, no matter what the cynics say otherwise
