Sure - I'm down for this too. I think my idea is just easier to implement, that's all. I'd prefer having an OP warp guy in Jeuno.

_________________

There is a jeuno warp npc, he's just in Al Zahbi....and it's sort of random because we can't get the paid warp guy or currency to fuel him. Just do Lure of the Wildcat to get Whitegate warp then hop over and talk the little Taru in J-10, once in a while he puts you in ru'lude.

EDIT: maybe just take his alternate warp points out, then to get back to the nations you can just take the airships

Aye. I think we can all agree that that having a warp NPC from Jeuno to your home nation would be lovely and we know that nas is open to the idea. I’m just merely stating what worked for me at an earlier level.

Let’s say that I’m a new level 25 character from Bastok and just got Kazham Airship Pass. Bastok doesn’t have Qufim OP yet and the tally just changed so I’m unable to run supplies, BUT they do have Derfland. Having the option of setting HP in Jeuno and zoning into rolanberry so I can get back and forth is nice to have to have.

Being new, low level and in the early stages of making Gil was one of the most daunting and fun tasks for me. So I try to save Gil and time the best I can. If I get a party invite to the jungles and OP to Qufim I do run the risk of death, deleveling, using up oils/powders (which aren’t cheap early on). It seems easier to me to just instant warp to Port Jeuno HP and hop on Airship to Kazham to save a little time/Gil.

Obviously this is all circumstantial and open to interpretation, as I said before. This is what I enjoyed doing because I like to fish and craft while I’m seeking parties.

Everyone has different play styles so I wouldn’t deter people from the different types of traveling options we have right now so I’m just doing my due dilligence spreading the word. I wouldn’t consider that a colossal waste but that’s just like your opinion man =P

He is not open to this idea.

I stand corrected lol

Alternatively, once you get your presence in Aht Urghan setup, you can use the services of the free Warp Taru in Al Zhabi. He doesn't require a coin like his Whitegate buddy, but warps you to a random place (Batallia, Rolan, or Sauromongue) just outside of Jeuno.

Never remember to use anything in ToAU. It's where my brain shut off apparently in retail.

Which I find fairly confusing, because in retail it was the opposite. We all set HP in Jeuno around lv 20, and rarely go back to the starting towns there after.

I kinda like seeing the starting cities populated. If Nas does drop an OP NPC there, I kinda hope a few folks still hang around their home nations.

Around the time I quit retail, I noticed more and more people setting their HPs in their home nations as they unlocked all the OP warps. it took time for those warps to become common knowledge amongst your average player.
