Frankly, I prefer Warcraft's canon where you have to be a Kirin Tor or equivalent skill wizard to teleport even a little bit, with long-distance teleports requiring a team of wizards performing a complex ritual (or a single Archmagus (or Ronin, who does whatever the fuck he wants)). Â
Having teleportation readily available to anyone just because they're an "adventurer" makes the world seem very small to me. "I have traveled many moons to find this particular inn!" "Really? Because most folk just come through the big blue rock in a couple seconds." Â
And I get that realistically, most people using teleportation should be limited by their anima supply. But you're still going to teleport everywhere. Because what's more efficient, taking a couple-hour nap after a teleport, or spending a week walking there?
