Could also add a Taru that teleports us to "Outposts" in exchange for Gil or Company Seals or something!

Well was kidding about that, but i actually think it whouldnt be too bad to add spells, XI wasnt that bad with those teleport and warp methods mixed with OP warps and City-Airships. I miss those times

The current teleporting system is cool and all, what with attuning yourself to the crystals like you had to at the crags in XI, but IMO the currency system for teleporting itself is in serious need of an overhaul.....and with an increase in content its going to get even worse. The more traveling you need to do, the more you're going to use your Anima etc. And like someone else mentioned, it's really taxing on a players anima supply if they do crafting leves. Pick up 4-8 leves and then have to port all over the place to get materials and turn them in, then back to the city(Albeit with return) to pick up more and do it all over again. I mean let's be realistic....no one is going to grab 4 leves and then choco out to 2-3 different camps each time....its just silly.

The current system is too limited to teleport, i rather save anima to stuff i gotta rush to and walk than get to 0 anima. Well now with atomos is different, but atomos wont last forever D:
WHM teleports FTW!

On my server no one hardly shows up to Atomos after they reduced it to one spawn at midnight....most i've seen at any single spawning is ~10 people....and it always ends with a wipe...

The anima system is pretty ass backwards if you ask me. The only people that anima hurts is casual people. They only log on a hour or two a day and given their limited time, use anima to get around. You can easily run out of anima if you average a use of 6 or more a day without doing hamlet to recharge it. For people who play more often and participate in all facets of end game, like myself, anima is by far the lowest thing on my list of worries. I can easily do a hamlet once a week and get full anima but again casuals are less likely to get into a hamlet than more hardcore players meaning they get the short end of the stick.
