Recommended Posts

First, 3.1 is scheduled for early November. Debated whether it is first 10 days, or November 10.

 

Album of the slides here.

 

Void Arc

- Rumor that the arc was built by powerful, desperate mages to escape a flood....

- Same requirements as WoD for party composition

- Equipment and material lotting will be separate

 

Exploratory Missions

- Airships!

- Aetherial ilvl 210 gear

- Can explore with mounts

- Gatherers can gather rare items

- Interesting equipement grades

 

Lord of Vermilion

- MINION BATTLES

- Skills and stat point allocations

- Similar to rock paper scissors for weakness/advantage (Or Fire Emblem etc)

- Real time and Turn based

 

New Gold Saucer Rewards

- AFRO??

- New outfits

 

FC Crafting

- More outside house decorations

- Moogle decoration

- HAUCHERFANT PORTRAIT

 

There will be some sort of event where players can give input as to what Heavensward songs will be digitally released next!

You should also mention how if you don't have a FC Airship you can rent one from Ishgard.

To be honest, I didn't really think about what it meant. Sorta glossed over and thought it mean FC airships left from there or something.

 

It's 10pm and I've been up since 3 am sorry ><

Welp, it was only a matter of time before the afro landed. ;o

 

Definitely down for exploratory missions, and nice knowing there is an option to rent your way into access.

 

Look forward to more details on gear as we get closer. The exploration rewards seem like they might be promising, which I hope is true since there was nothing in HW to suit my taste.

 

Will leave Verminion to players with skill at RTS. I have none. :blush:

 

Altogether pretty cool, and not much of a wait, either.

Also, Void Ark will not have any references to previous FFs, which was half the fun of Crystal Tower. :(

 

That's a good thing. As much as I appreciate the references to previous games there needs to be unique content as well - and so far the unique stuff has proven to be very interesting in itself.

I'm with this as well. Crystal Tower was a strange pastiche that seemed stylistically inconsistent with the rest of the game or at least the Allagan Empire.

 

Pretty sure they were baked af when they came up with the Amon fight.

Well, the Exploratory mishies sound like the PERFECT content for a character who lives and breathes as a sellsword overall. And I'm sure I'll be wanting to tear around in the Void Ark a bunch of times over.

 

I'm most looking forward to being able to get in on the ground floor of the Relic weapon stuff. Not to say I relish the idea of what hellish grinds there are to come and what sort of gil gates will likely be thrown in my way...but it will be nice to not feel like I'm so behind the curve that it won't matter if I try or not.

 

I also am eager to check out the Lord of Verminion game, even though I'm guaranteed to be completely awful at it.

 

The question I now face remains...do I stick it out with my Spoopy Paladin, or do I try to surmount the annoyance of the 50-60 level grind in an attempt to get my Rawrior up to snuff...
