Ask Questions for the Letter from the Producer LIVE: NA Fan Fest (iLv/New Tomestone)

Will the addition of the new Tomestone mean you are removing the weekly cap on Soldiery tomes?

Have you entertained any thoughts of providing a system by which players can covert higher-lvl Tomestone to lower-lvl ones?

Are crafting/gathering gear included in the ilvl increase?

We see in terms of gear for classes shared between types (Tanks, meele, casters, healers share gear, and bards are alone) for Soldery. With new ilvl and new tomestones coming, my real big questions would be what kind of theme will the new armor have? We had the Darklight set, esentually seemingly basic armor, AF2 as reskins of the artifact armor (which I hope we'll be able to get for ninja from the hunting rewards!), and then several different themes which remind me of older time outfits, like in time of gladiators, jesters, and priests big in government. Can we get any hints or a peek at the new armor sets you'll be releasing in this patch, will we get a new armor set from the new Tomestones and will it follow the same armory chest space saving idea as the last gear set? (put together since it is all essentially the same question)

Will we be able to purchase perishable items with Soldiery Tomes in 2.4 much like Myth can buy Gear, Mats and other items? I have a lot of Soldiery Tomes laying dormant and it'd be nice to be able to purchase other stuff with them apart from just Gear.

If I'm confused, perhaps SE will be as well.

iLvl70 AF1
iLvl90 AF2

Did you meant AF3?

Thanks for clarifying.

sorry i put this in the wrong area

Well i was wonderin if we would ever see large final fantasy characters etched into final fantasy 14 in dungeons or a raids as a mini story or besides characters but a tribute to each final fantasy? As for pvp as seen frontlines handles 72 players, could we increase the numbers to 100 or 120 with different game modes and maps in frontlines? And can we get team death match in wolves den? And any new pvp gear will be added the game seems to lack pvp modes and pvp gear like most mmorpgs. As for companions and pets will we ever see a thing were we all can get a monster in eorzea or enemy as a pet that we can raise and have fight for us besides a chocobo, bosses i think we need a mode like st or ct but with about 100 players fighting bosses as strong as Odin will that be possible?

i actually loved the design for smn/blm weathered sol gear

i saw alot of people posting quick replys when the first thread said post reply to thread please so wasnt sure if that would mean questions would be ignored if they were in quick reply so just incase heres the questions i wanted to be heard

Are we going to see slower ilvl progression past ilvl 110?
i.e Typically gear tend to progress by 10 ilvl, but High Allagan weapons are better than most weapons by 5 ilvl. Will we see more of this in the future?
