Building resources needs updating.

Building in it's current state is too much of a chore. I really want to build but spend an hour just to get enough stone to build a single piece of stone foundation. Less resources and faster construction time for planks and stone please.

Agreed. I relate it to MoE... an hour spent farming resources in MoE yields many many more building components. It doesn't hardly feel like a chore in MoE unless you're solo building a 3,000 piece build. One great thing MoE does is you can capture/recruit NPCs to work for you, refining resources, making weapons, etc. Can't imagine that'd happen here (and not saying it should). There's only like 6 npc's that exist in the FF world.

I've setup a five furnace system, stone blocks fly off the shelves that way.. but that's all the stone I hoarded from release. Having the skills unlocked for carrying overloaded running/flying/portals is a must for farming. No other way to max efficiency of making farming runs.

I almost think changing the stone stacks to 50 in large chests and perhaps slightly tweaking the yield on nodes.

The resource requirement is fine. What needs to change is the gathering. There's no real progression, or perks, for gathering. We should be getting like 6-8 stone per ore with a metal pickaxe but we're still getting the same amount as a stone pick. The crafting time absolutely needs to be shortened as well.
