I don't wanna see too much of a portal network admittedly cause that's actually a problem retail already has, flying isn't actually the thing that makes the world feel small there, its how portal attached everything is

Makes it feel too ffxiv overworld to me with aetherytes and such

The trailer showed a zone with multiple aetherytes. We’ve never had a city hub with 2. Its likely we saw the zone but not the connecting city from the art.

Yknow that is a really good point, my hope is that it’d be relegated to a vendor like how they push old tomes into hunt/the Rowena representative at main city aetherytes? Or something to that effect ig

"Well, I am told I have a "bountiful reserve of aether", despite how long it takes me to use aetherytes, so if I can be of help—"

She cut off, brow furrowed. "Biting cravings?"

Kimi most prefers walking or using aetherytes (she has a great reserve of aether as WoL that doesn't get overmuch use since she rarely uses magic)

For things requiring a mount though, it's most often her dodo (Dodo) or chocobo (Gordito)

I love doing hunts in the zone that's 90% water and only has aetherytes in one corner
October 31, 2026 at 2:39 AM
all of the aetherytes have looked so fun too, I'm really liking how all of these areas look in general

Zhyk: His own two feet. Sometimes a chocobo porter when he feels like spending the coin or whatever ride his work supplies, such as a break in the back of a merchant's cart.

Vachir: Once it was a large stallion. These days it's usually aetherytes, walking, and carriages.

Hey I love blue so have some blue art for no reasons at all (also my new products are going to be very blue) 🩵💙🩵

aetherytes too if they're not a terribly long distance away. for new places he may still have to take an airship/boat, but once attuned, he'll teleport.
October 29, 2026 at 5:59 PM
I know! He's supposedly traveling all over Garlemald; how did he get there? Was he able to use the computerized aetherytes they have, and if so, why hasn't anyone suggested addiing those to Eorzea now?
October 28, 2026 at 10:32 PM
#shonnaaotd sense of direction 💕 do NOT follow him; chances are he is going the wrong way

he gets turned around using aetherytes all the time, this is why he doesn't like using them (gil cost notwithstanding, though even that was just an excuse to hide the REAL issue)
#WOLQOTD:

Is there something your wol is comically bad at, despite their many talents?
Cooking? Cleaning? Doing their taxes? Flirting? Hitting reprisal?

Going by mount is smoother for Ashe. She doesn't mind airship either. Aetherytes are fastest in crossing over lands, but Ashe gets severally sick if she's traveling by it all the time.
#WoLQotD What is your WoL's preferred and/or favorite method of transportation?
October 24, 2026 at 5:59 AM
Aetherytes aren't an option unless we are talking life or death situations.

Airships are no good either. What if she sucks the aether from the crystals that keep the thing in the air?

So old fashioned walking, mounts or ships it is...

"Oh, very much so," Maral laughed with a nod. "But, it's not just because aetherytes give me trouble— I've travelled my whole life. The road is my home."
October 22, 2026 at 9:28 PM
"Aetherytes and I don't always get along, either," Maral continued. "So even if I wanted teleport back quickly, there's a chance I'll end up in all kinds of trouble..."

She glanced over as Haniel held the hot pack between her hands. "What's that?"
October 21, 2026 at 4:08 PM
They only use aetherytes during dire emergencies (see: most of the FFXIV MSQ). At all other times Memori travels by airship, ship-ship, or riding from place-to-place. They have better linkpearl etiquette than Estinien purely b/c it actually takes them time to come when called.

welcome back to the brainspace, artenia. im glad your first thought upon reentry was "do you think the turali aetherytes taste different because they have the pink bit on the bottom" and "do you think ill get in trouble if i try to take a bite of it"

Yanxia and Yak T'el are definitely up there in "Most Unreasonably Stupid Maps to Traverse" in FFXIV.

Both of them have exactly two Aetherytes and neither of them are near ANYTHING.
October 17, 2026 at 10:32 PM
I can't wait to attune to new aetherytes and aether currents. nothing gives me more SEROTONIN
October 17, 2026 at 1:15 AM
Same! I love to walk between zones. It feels more true to how Cimorene travels. She doesn’t use aetherytes unless pressed for time, or it’s a particularly large distance.
October 15, 2026 at 5:33 PM
If the aetherytes and systems keep crashing today, I swear it's not my fault this time.

Probably.
October 13, 2026 at 10:42 PM
specifically about hunts: we'll be able to hop to any NA world via the main city aetherytes so itll be easy to get anywhere for any hunt mark/train. so those beasts are about to melt and everyone is going to get exposed to every world's most impatient assholes
October 14, 2026 at 8:02 AM
It's at the main aetherytes in cities on jp dcs like when you world transfer
