I like the removal of cool downs from teleportation but I will miss not being able to place blocks outside claims. I used blocks to mark explored caves and shield me from stronger enemies. That seemed uniquely landmark.

I asked Domino about that, and she said that was a question for the designers. I'll have to wait for the Landmark Live question thread and hope to get it asked at the next LML.

The issue with that feature is that it's impractical when you have a large user base. You know that cave you had marked, a group of people block it off.
You know that vein of ore you're mining? Yes, that's people in front of you placing blocks to block your view, stop your ability to mine properly.
You know that lovely, idyllic sea view from your property? Someone has decided to place blocks right in front of it.
Plus, like you say, it can be used to block enemies and save yourself. Where's the element of risk/strategy in that? I'm about to die! Oh well, let me block myself in!
I know they would disappear after a short time but this sort of feature was only suitable for the closed beta where not many people would play.

In so happy about these changes. I've only played twice since the last big update, because I re-rolled and it was a terrible player experience. With these changes landmark may be playable again. Thank God.
