Ask Questions for Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XXVIII! (Lead UI Minagawa)

When doing a fate, could we get something like a faint line to show the border of the fate as not to overstep it so easily?

I noticed that PSO2 is having a Collaboration Event this Summer with FFXIV in their game. Is it possible FFXIV might also get one in return this Summer?

I would personally love it if we could get an option in character options to be able to restrict receiving tells from random anonymous players, except for specific sources such as friends list, free company, and linkshells. This would be great to have so players can avoid RMT spammers without sacrificing the tells altogether by turning on busy or just shutting it off completely. Also, I'd love to hear your design philosophy on UI design and what you guys have to consider when implementing features and new content.

Could we have a new UI window that will show up for a few seconds each time a new debuff is put upon us and explain the debuff ?
It will help understand what the debuff does during a fight without having to put the cursor over it.

And of course, being part of the UI, you could chose to hide that window if it bothers you.

Just a few options I would love:

1: Option to show target health numbers on the bar. Percentage is nice, but seeing 400/1000 is much more efficient as WHM.

2. Option to remove yourself from player finder, even temporarily. This would cut down on gil seller spam.

3. Set the marketboard to look for keywords when searching, currently I have to type the exact name to find the item. ex: Typing "cap" to find all items with "cap" in the name would be helpful.

With talks of more housing plots and wards being made available, i'd like to ask a question about possible Ishgard housing.

I know you feel like it could be done but i have to wonder if the future Ishgard housing will be open to Heavensward expansion only and locked to A Realm Reborn players or open to everyone.

Can we get a system message that tells us when a Free Company Airship Voyage completes?

I recently noticed how annoying it is not to have one, especially when we have one for Retainer Ventures. It really makes no sense to me for something so important. Perhaps I've just missed an existing option to show such a message.

I know what your thinking, this guys name is Thor and hes asking for a viking. Lets be serious though in final fantasy 3 and several tactics i loved having the viking job. Just being able to mush your enemies with a large hammer was so satisfying. I know we have a warrior already (an argument often presented to me when i ask about this class.), but i simply am just not satisfied i would love it if we could just have a massive hulking tank of a class (lower DPS but Significantly higher health in the range of 30K+). It could have so many amazing possibilities as well. Large hammers. Fire based Attacks (Viking Pyre?) and Defense buffs. they would be a slow but heavy hitting class, like a physical Blm. cont'd..

Maybe a stance that doubles their GCD but also doubles their damage dealt and have massive oGCD hits with long recasts. I always thought a hammer tank would be sweet. Never thought of it being Viking, but whatever they could come up with would be cool. It could switch from hammers and maces. Blunt headed objects. Plus Monk has a blunt buff so this would complement well. The anti tower has a Viking mob, Maybe its foreshadowing something. i really hope we get this class it seems like it definitely possible and there is plenty of community to back the idea. come on devs show us a sign!!! I would kill to have my hammer throw ability from FF3 back. *cough* mjolnir throw *cough* like the dark night ranged jump, or dragonfire dive, but as a Viking and with a hammer and lightning aspected. oh that would be a beautiful sight to see

Ideas
Abilities:
Hammer Throw: Ranged singular attack increases enmity(similar to shield lob or tomahawk).*
Viking pyre/Thunder call: increases damage of fire/thunder* abilities for entire party by 15% for 10sec
Mjolnir: launches character to desired target; in Flight of the Valkyrie stance deals lightning AoE up to 10 yalms away for 250 potency*/Pyre of the Ancients stance same thing but instead of AoE, it DoTs target for 300 potency fire damage for 15 sec*
(Decided we alrdy had a lightning DoT so Lightning AoE damage and Fire DoT would be more fun.)*

Stances:
Ragnarok: Damage stance/thunder aspected, More DMG!, debuffed attack speed. Hits harder 450-600 potency but GCD is 2.5-3.0 sec maybe slower. (thinking of changing the stance names)*
Jotunn's Reckoning: Tanking stance/fire aspected, Major health increase, Major DMG decrease more so then Warriors, focusing more on Enimity control and DoTs then actual weapon DMG*
