Despite the ginormous size of the FFXII world of Ivalice, there are certain parts that you just have to traverse on foot or by teleporting. Chocobos are out of the question as they only serve as limited walking anyways. xD

So what do you do normally to go from end to end?

I usually walk, rarely do I ever teleport if I can help it (i.e. I don't have somewhere important to go in RL xD), but I think I've only used teleport stones once or twice, to get to where I needed to go in a real hurry.

How 'bout you?
 
Teleport stones since every other form of travel in the game is horribly bad. Even the airship, which was a focus of the game, is terrible.
 
I walked from place to place at first. But I got tired of that and started using teleport stones.
 
Haha yeah, eventually the gaps become too large to just walk on foot without encountering powerful monsters like those dumb elementals so it's best to teleport in that case.

xD
 
I teleport if i'm trying get from say, Phon Coast to Rabanastre. Large distances like that. But if it's a shorter distance, like from Rabanastre to the Westersand, i'll walk. It's easy kills that dont take long and i can rack up LP without a hassle.
 
there is some times when i feel real lazy so i just use the teleport crystals then there is some times when i feel like gaining experience and LP either way is good enough for me
 
Always I walk, always I fight - The reason to gain LP and experience no matter how small the amounts are.
 
Teleporting stones for me also, Walking from rabenastre to phon coast! no ways only doin that once
 
I Walk everywhere unless I need to go to Rabanastre for a Hunt Lookup.
I like killing Pitiful things and still getting the 1 LP.
 
I typically walk everywhere. Even if it means walking from Rabanastre to Archades. It doesn't matter to me. More loot, more money, more LP, more abilities and goodies. Plus you tack on at least 2 or 3 levels by walking so far so late in the game. I only teleport if I'm in a hurry.

Click to expand...

I maxed out the License board pretty early on in the game so I really never felt the need to walk. In the beginning of the game though I did walk almost everywhere because I had no idea where I could purchase teleport stones. By the end of the game, that's all I ever used.
 
Wait...you can purchase teleport stones?
Wait...I totally missed that.
Where??
 
I remember you can buy some in the bazaar at Rabanastre. I think that's where I spotted some. They go for about 200-300.
 
Yea, make sure you go to the bazaar and not the regular shopping center. The bazaar is the long strip place with like watermelon stand setups in the back of the city. It's where Vaan is first introduced.
 
I buy them in an airship lol.
I just buy 99 then that'll last me for a little while then i go buy more.
 
Haha. I didn't know that, but then again I've never flew airship in XII before. :P

The only reason why I'd take it is if I want to experience something new in the game, but really, I think Teleportation stones are enough for travel in this game without the airship, don't you think? o_O
 
IMO the travel stones just make the airship in the game surplus to requirements, its not needed since you can just teleport there. its only useis right at the end anyway.

I tend to walk rather than teleport, because its more fun and you can train too.
 
If you mean more fun being you can hack the heck out of monsters, then yeah, I totally agree. xD
There's always something new on the battlefield, which really surprised me. One of the reasons why I love walking around, taking in the view, and opening those barrel-chests that only seem to have no more than 200 gil. xD
