If they do raise anima costs it won't be until after those vehicles are introduced. They used to be more expensive but a couple of months ago they reduced the cost of them, as I'm sure you know about.

I personally think they need to change the system to some sort of crystal system or something along the likes. Seems to fit the game more with the whole Aethryte theme. They don't really explain why you're able to use Anima to go practically anywhere you've already been. Also I think they should make it so you have to hit level 10 or something before you can use it and then introduce it as a "special ability" of sorts so that new players will know it's there and how to use it.

Could use the crystal as some sort of resonance stone which allows you to set it to the frequency of the stone in the place you want to go and allows you to teleport there. I feel like there should be lore behind an ability to teleport >.>
