Predictions to 2.2

One thing I have to say is that if they're "waist deep" in it they should start announcing and screenshotting more stuff. If everything from 2.2 has been announced so far, then start showing us some stuff.

primal weapon, primal acc, dl, mytho & allagan gear all storage-able!

Well how long it will take for Musketeer to be released comes down to what was left of Musketeer's development from 1.0.

So far we know they have gotten the concept of Musketeer done in 1.0 but how far they gotten with Musketeer's Job, cross-skills for the Jobs, and basic skills remained unknown. If they left enough finished material from when it was still being developed in 1.0 then it shouldn't take too long. If not 2.2 then sometime between the time frame from 2.2 to expansion release. Releasing Musketeer during a Major Update right when the release of 1st expansion is about to be release stretchs it bit too much since there is still a flow of new players arriving into FF14ARR and the announcement of the first expansion release will spike up the new player population.

Releasing something like a new class needs proper timing due to how it will attract not only old players but also new players.

Then there is the factor of the expansion containing more new classes as well.

We know a new Race will be introduced in the expansion but we can't ignore that there is a possibility of new classes in the expansion due to the introduction of Ishgard and Ala Mhigo.

Introducing Musketeer as part of a Major Update that is right next to expansion release that may contain 1, 2 , or 3 new classes can cause far more stress to the servers due to the large amount of population still running through Musketeer then suddenly get a much large population stress with the new classes that may be the in expansion.

The last thing we want is another server issue due to the Arcanist Boom we had during the first month of release.

Probably last minute disappointment similar to housing prices

I predict Revenant's Toll gets even more developed. It was kind of a surprise to see it change with the last patch. If we get new regions, I can see the devs altering the landscape in the same way. (say a tunnel through the frozen wall to reach the northwest region of Coerthas for example, perhaps the Wyrmking's Perch.)

Salamander is Eft type mob...
A Doblyn mount however... I like the idea :)

Thank you for the lovely information regarding this. I hope and can't wait for the new contents will be add in future.
Hopefully we can get class / job like Final Fantasy Tactic

Regards.

I call Buffalo mount for Sahagins (well, or Kobolds)!

I'd say they would release the egis with a level cap raise adding me job quests or something of the sort as you would need to become a better summoner in order to learn to control these new egis :) my thought on that any way. :) hope it happens

Well what we will definitely get is:
- Leviathan Story/Hard/Extreme
- Moogle Extreme
- Kobold/Sahagin dailies
- 1 new dungeon, 2 HM dungeons
- Vanity system and dyeable DL gear (maybe other rare stuff)
- new BC turns (with new gear)
- new story (duh!)

What we might get:
- new token tier with related gear that goes along new BC drops
- maybe upgrade of relic weapon/maybe new quest line
- class tweaking
- maybe Ishgard will open up and/or rest of coerthas
- Frontlines? (probably 2.3)
- new GC ranks
- Ultima Weapon Extreme?

2.3 will have:
- Ramuh and Shiva battles
- more CT
- another new dungeon, 2 HM dungeons
- Ixali/Gigae (or Dragon) dailies
