What is your biggest wish for endwalker that you know probably won't happen?

Relic weapons to not get completely ruined by their final stage :(

Actually I'll add two more

-Hrothgar have their back problem fixed
-Momentum walk/run stop animation is restored without compromising reaction speed (it's already used in cutscenes so it's not like the animation frames are gone)

Yugiri's hair

Bard songs that you actually sing in battle with actual support effects instead of just pressing a button and singing an entire song within the space of a half-second.

Also for Selene to exist again as a support-oriented combat pet to complement Eos’ healing-oriented focus, rather than just being an Eos skin. Speaking of which, Moogle Fairy Glamour . Summoners can turn their Egi into Carbuncle, why can’t I turn my Fairy into a cute Moogle?

Also a fully realised minion raising system with Island Sanctuary content, with or without Pokemon-style minion battles (Lord of Verminion is kind of a mess lol). Tbh though I’ll be happy with the more likely outcome that you’ll simply be able to place several within the Sanctuary area

EDIT: Also, I think it’d be really cool if they revive some of Scholar’s old support oriented abilities. Stuff like Virus, Eye for an Eye, Fey Wind, I even miss the bad skills like Fey Caress and Silent Dusk. I’d also like to see Scholar get a gcd ‘scan’ ability that increases damage dealt to the enemy; like Chain Stratagem but weaker and more readily useable.

If that happened then shadowbringers would just be a big waste of time and may as well not exist or have happened.

Agree.
I think what made Shadowbringers so good was that there was an element of uncertainty.
It was the Emet Selch plot device.

Endwalker better have an Emet Selch.

for content outside of savage and ultimate to be fun again.

Gostesu comes back, becomes a trust party member, gets a good death scene fighting Zenos or something.

My biggest wish is that at least 2 or 3 Scions and a couple nation leaders die, and maybe a city state gets nuked. Actual consequences. Also the Scions go their own ways at the end so the next story has a fresh cast of characters. If Gosetsu doesn't show in Endwalker 6.0 then I'm fine with him tagging along in the new story. I don't want to see Alphinaud's or G'raha Tia's boyish faces again after 6.0.

I agree with this. I’d also like, if we get some kind of title, for it to actually mean something. The warrior of darkness title felt like a joke. We never even used darkness once in the story despite them constantly saying “dark doesn’t = bad”. So...why haven’t we used it in any way? Why is it always light? -_-

2 seconds GCD.

For Zenos to die. Permanently. No out-of-nowhere redemption, no attempts at making him sympathetic. Just go away and never be mentioned again.

I hope so too, and was going to say it's not unlikely, but then I got to the last sentence and I see why you put it here now. :p

I'll echo that one, but that's not really something I'd consider unlikely. They more or less hinted at it when they commented on the art of Hydaelyn and Zodiark by Amano.

Ilvl sync that doesn't completely trivialize old content

Healers being given a wider non-healing kit. People who like to play healbot, fine, I don't pay your sub, but a single spammable button and a hot as means to do damage is objectively bad design. WE EXIST OUTSIDE RAIDS

Well you kinda drained the light away bringing darkness, I guess you could play DRK if you wanted lol.

A dating sim mechanic for the WoL and NPCs.

Rebalance some classes skill acquisition so that you get AoE's sooner.
Doing a good portion of ARR dungeons as a melee is depressing.

I want us to actually use darkness in the story though. They advertised us as drk yet we save the day both times in the expansion by using light...in the expansion where they’re trying to show the ugly side of light.

I'd like to get some more personal side quests with the Scions and maybe a few other npcs, where we learn more about them and strengthen their friendship with the WOL.

Also, more glamour dresser space and plates, and ability to apply plates anywhere.

battlecraft leves :D i really miss them

Permanent 2B butt.

Everything is bad when not in moderation, we don't really use the light a ton in SHB though?
Like at the final boss, yeah, but that's it. At the end of the day it's just aether.

Hats and hairstyles for all Viera

20 extra glamour plates and the ability to tie different hair styles to specific plates

Make healers interesting and engaging to play

It’s the only, only thing I want out of EW, do you know how awful a feeling it is to have your favorite role (Tied with Tanks) in RPG’s be butchered at the start of a expac and left to rot for 2-f**cking years without the devs barley or piss poorly addressing the problem over those TWO YEARS???

If healers aren’t fixed, I’m done with FF14, and it’s very likely I won’t buy EW at all, and the thing is, as the title says, healers likely won’t be fixed at all and it makes me feel awful.

(And I’m not saying what’s wrong cause everyone on the forums already knows)

Probably will never get a raid similar to Coils, music and location speaking, playing there for the 1st time was a different experience.

Seeing how much a healing cast would actually heal.

Like while casting, a bar will show on players HP showing how much HP they would receive from your healing. Having this showing would help healers be more efficient with their heals.

You can see when your co-healer is casting a heal & how much it would heal the group for. So you can use a better healing ability to complement their healing rather than overheal.

This does not work with instant heals, only GCD heals.

This exactly. It’s so baffling that even after 6 years, the devs haven’t addressed this apparent problem. It’s why i scoff when they mention that they’re so “transparent.” There are major problems that they don’t address for YEARS. Here’s hoping they get something, but with them trying to appeal to the casual and lazy audience and making dungeons easier, who knows anymore.

new limited job, something like beast tamer or puppet master

Many things I agree has been posted already so I will up vote them and say this instead:

I want to be able to get old pvp feast rewards, I'm ok with the current season exclusivity to 100 players for a season or 2 but when a season has pass 1-2 new seasons they should allow to players get older rewards somehow, they can be expensive, they could take a lot of time but they need to be accessible, it's absurd how not only they are limited by numbers but for time too specially considering the mafia around feast.

Runner up would be savage raids that actually had a big map and checkpoints, maybe dynamic encounters between bosses. Not just trash, but interesting team focused puzzles or something. Third runner up would be in-game help for newbies. Example maybe the game notices the tank body pulled so a moogle pops up that says "maybe try tomahawk, kupo!" What's yours?

To have all healing spells turned into ogcds and healers be given a proper rotation.

When you force healers into rotations then there will be no difference playing a healer or a dps. I don't think this would improve the game at all.

Force? We are already forced into spamming two buttons on GCD to clear raids.

If you are talking about dungeons then you are wrong. DPS and tanks don't need to do their rotation correctly to clear them. Lazy healers can keep being lazy and only use their ogcds heals. No one is forced there and raiding becomes more fun, everyone is happy.

I don't play healers so take what I have to say about it with grain of salt. Coming from a dps player.


What would make healer cool to me, is each healer has a style that players could enjoy.

A range healer who is encourage not to dps, but the heals give bonus to party members to make up for it. Party members lose bonus if you dps. This for the typical players who want to sit back and heal.
A dps healer, that has a damage rotation and it heals the party members. For the dpsers like me who want to support and dps at same time.
Ast being a mix of the two. Depending on what card they pull. They have to change gameplay style up.


I mean like I said that seems neat, but prob hard to balance and people who like healer would prob think Im out of my mind.

Yes, and this is already not a good class/job design IMHO. But forcing the healers from a two-button-rotation into a more-than-two-button-rotation is not really an impovement, IMHO. They will become basically a dps job. The same happened to tanks. A tank is a dps job with more aggro generation.

How is it not an improvement? As it is they’re already dps jobs, the green dps isn’t even a meme at this point. You barely heal in content as it is. At least giving them a dps rotation would be rewarding. It’s the unfortunate circumstances of them giving in to the dps meta and having everything revolve around dps dps dps. It became apparent when they said they’ll always release a dps every expansion. That seems to be all they care about and then they just simplify tanks and healers because they can’t be bothered to actually address them.

Sigh, again the discussion derailing to healing problems.
Everyone in this game is a dps with a gimmick because the encounters are designed as such.
If you want healers to only heal, then make encounters do deal significantly more damage every second (Like soft enrages in savages)
Because now you just throw an ogcd heal every 15 secs or and come back to spamming 2111112111121111211121111
