Q&A bit

  • A whole bunch of skills are coming between 51~60.
     
     
  • No, you don't get them every 5 levels.
     
     
  • Everyone will need to re-work their rotations.
     
     
  • There isn't enough space on the current HB/XHBs for all those actions. They have a plan.
     
     
  • POE-cap isn't being raised/removed because IL130 is a little high in the early stages of Ishgarde. (previous off record interviews mentioned that they'll be relevant up to l55)
     
     
  • next 24man raids coming in 3.1.
     
     
  • FC primal summoning has been delegated to 'some time later'.
     
     
  • Add-ons on back burner because 3.0 took priority. (they added too much stuff)
     
     
  • No plans to show TP.
     
     
  • New jobs aren't getting ZWs.
     
     
  • New ZW-like quests starting in 3.1. A bit of work has been put into the story.
     
     
  • New jobs will have primal weapons.
     
     
  • Summoner has been heavily reworked. Something something tri-disaster.
     
     
  • Expansion of armoury chest to come later.
     
     
  • Number of retainers going up. 4 maybe?
     
     
  • New housing wards comes after Ishgard.
     
     
  • Choco rank caps going up.
     
     
  • You need HW to be an Aura. No other conditions.
     
     
  • New roadmap planned for Wolves Den and other PVP.
     
     
  • A training mode for raids may come. Eventually.
     
     
  • Thinking of adjusting Steps.
     
     
  • New GS attractions start from 3.1
     
     
  • No plans for DX12
     

Lore panel

Dravanian Highlands

  • Really, really out west.
     
     
  • Dragons live here.

  • 6 years ago.
     
     
  • The new Gunas tribe live here.
     

Dravanian Lowlands

  • Has not been invaded by Dragons.
     
     
  • Lots of old archaeological thingies.
     
     
  • There's a deserted Sharlayan city. Kinda like old Constantinople. Big scholary city.
     
     
  • But it feels Greek.
     
     
  • They used tarot cards to predict the future.
     

Dravanian Cloud Sea

Abarasia Cloud sea

Gubra Library. (new dungeon)

Aura naming rules coming end May.

Alexander Q&A

Q：You've mentioned that Alexander Normal is for people to relax and enjoy the story, does that mean they'll be cleared within a day or two?

Y: /em nods.

Q. Was Hard mode made with WoW's Mythic raids in mind?

Y: We're actually calling them Heroic internally.

Q.Does that mean there'll be something even harder?

Y: Depends on the players' clear rates and requests.

Q. So Alexander was made with player clear rates in mind?

Y: Yup. Looking at the number of player clears, we also have something called Content Costs where we basically want our content to be enjoyable by more people.

Q. How many levels?

Y: 4.

Q. Will there be higher IL requirements and more gimmicks as we go up?

Y: Yes. We designed it with what players considered fun between all 3 coils.

Q. How hard is Alexander Hard?

Y: About as hard as FCOB Savage ← ?!?!?!

Q: Will the Fat Chocobo fly?

Y: Yes.

Aura are not related to Dragons. Their motif are demons.

 

 

There you have it, we've been massively trolled. Assuming of course this is correct. The stream dropped out for me during the QA section so I don't know how valid all of this is.

 

Oddly, I'm perfectly okay with this. It really eases up a lot of the lore hangups I had. Now it's a matter of getting those naming conventions.

 

Very excited about the new dungeon, curious about the lore. I like that they call it heroics internally.

 

Thanks for the post! A lot to think on.

New housing wards come after Ishgard? What does that mean exactly? Is that just a bit of a mistranslation? I'm going to keep an eye on more that comes out on that. With them linking SO MUCH on housing (airship crafting) I'm really holding out hope they just release the shit out of new wards.

WHAT

 

THIS IS HUGE

 

THIS CHANGES EVERYTHIIING!!

 

Unless by 'they have a plan' they mean they're going to just consolidate skills or something, in which case nothing really changes and we'll still be locked into mostly static rotations. I hope not. I hope there's some element of choice and options in here. Maybe even stance skills that change the properties of your skills or something. That would be ace.

I don't understand why we have to wait an entire month for the Au Ra naming conventions... Sigh. :(

 

New wards coming out at some point is very exciting, however. Hopefully many people can finally get a place! And thank the Twelve that SMN's finally getting some attention. <_<

I was also very disappointed about that, but at least everything else seems really neat and I'm looking forward to ALL OF IT.

Are we talking about in the party menu here or what?

 

I am fairly sure it is in regard to party menu, long have I wanted the tp showing up in parties to be an option cause it will have its uses, but I suppose I will trudge along and hope my requests for tp in party chat every now and then will not go unnoticed xD.

New housing isn't being released until after the expac drops. They don't want to overload the servers more then they already are.

Oh, so it does mean Tactical Points...

 

So WTF does 'No plans to show TP' mean then? o_O For the new actions? But we don't even know what the new actions are...

 

People were wanting it to show in the party UI like MP does, for things like using goad and the bard TP song. Right now it does not, and it seems like they're not planning on changing that.

ZW not for the new jobs has me pretty powerful sad. I had swept up those Atma and stored them in hopes of maybe starting along getting a new shiny GS. Guess I'll have to learn some EX Primes in order for me to get a shiny stabby...unless, of course, 3.1 arrives before I complete the new MSQ and so I begin that ZW grind....

 

...awrgh, what to do what to do...
