I had a few ideas while out crafting today..
One of the most annoying things I have to say about crafting is the hauling time and loading time. Now I have Cable internet, but I know one friend of mine who refuses to craft because he's on dialup and can take upwards of 20 minutes for him to load a port. I find myself sometimes having to Portal 2-3 times to bring my goods back to my plot or to my guilds workstations and such.
What I would like to see would be an introduction of a new quest. Obtainable at level 25 any class. The purpose of this quest would be to give the player a teleportation point, similiar to that of ones recall, but instead of being able to use it anywhere, one has to go through a portal, any portal, to be sent to where they set thier point to. It would be simple (I think) to tie this into the already set recall system so that at shrines you culd either "Bind to Object" or "Set Teleportation point to Object." This would give players with plots or lairs in out of the way places, such as Northern Trandalar a good reason to build a shrine in their lair. Be bound out where they are gathering the goods, haul to the nearest portal, and poof in your lair and ready to apply or store goods for later use.
In addition to this another quest could be given to Say dragon lairshapers, Alchemists, or Enchanters of level 75 or greater, to create a Portal stone. These portal stones would then work for their friends to act as a transport to their lair or plot, allowing the dragons with lairs way up in the mountains to bring their pets up, or to show a young hatchling around it to say 'Eventually you too can build something like this.' Or even to just have them aid in hauling supplies.
Now I know it would be most likely a long time before we see any new content as such, but I wanted to toss the idea out while it was fresh on my mind.
