You are welcome.

Look forward the lvl cap raise, more goodies to come! ^^

So it was hinted in 2.2 that there are more primals. Any chance that we will see a Alexander primal coming soon?

Are you going to add more detailed tool tips to stay descriptions? I already know that STR makes me hit stuff harder, I'd like to see a description like "STR 347 = +150 damage or something like that.

Are we going to have updated ways of giving NPCs life to their personalities?
This can be done in different ways or user-changeable options;

• Such as a simple voice clip like a Laugh as the text is displayed (like with Zelda games)
• An option to enable/disable text-crawling sounds to match the NPCs tone and emotions, with alternating text-crawling speed to match stuttering and such.
• More in game voices for the more important NPCs, etc.

Or will it be like Arcanist where one can level a 50 Scholar and the Summoner with no practical experience is also max level?

If they are going to do that then maybe they need to make the new jobs separate... Another words add a beginning class and have their final job class finished... For example... Swordsman ---> Dark Knight... Bandit ----> Thief.... So there always way to get around ppl just being 50 without the experience. Of course this will mean they might need to add a couple npc's for the story quest.. but, should take that long... But, yes before anymore new armors I think I rather see some new jobs introduced...

Will we be seeing any dresses for the Glamour system this patch? I'm really hoping for some kind of Chinese dress!

I really enjoy the in depth crafting system in ffxiv and I am hoping that the cap for the crafted items will continue to raise with the cap of the rest of the gear. will there be end game crafted weapons added in patch 2.3?

thanks for your time

Are you going to change the extra Retainer to a pay once.. or keep them as a monthly charge.. which is kind of lame.

Will minions be able to give effects during world map battles or will they just be something to show off?

Need Mac version.
