The ability to teleport where you want when you want is nice at first, but it very quickly gets old and causes the entire beautiful map to be seen as nothing but an obstacle. It seriously seriously detracts from the joy of adventuring and discovery...

Had you posted this thread a month ago when I just started GW2, I'd be all for it. Now that I've had time in the game, I'm very much against this. I'd be ok with being able to teleport places, but only if there's a limit. There's nothing wrong with running to a place, and in fact I believe this is the number one way memories are made.

For the record, I felt the same with 1.xx's aetherytes. Teleporting was just... too convenient. It took away from the game. Your proposal would do the same but multiplied by 1000.
