SE, when will we get personal housing in Ishgard?

When will we get personal housing in Ishgard? I really like the environment in Ishgard as far as I can tell.

Half past never.

Most likely not before the end of 3.x before the next expansion

Look forward to it

You like grey smashed rubble and charred wood? :P

Alright, I know the new housing ward wouldn't be located in Brume, but it's still the first thing I think of when I picture Ishgardian housing.

The city of Ishgard seems too cramped to have luxurious space for adventurer homes, so I honestly can't picture us receiving that style of housing. Maybe if they added new construction projects near Western Coethas, I could see it happening. I'm mostly curious as to the lore explanation they will provide, since it seems like every speck of Coethan soil was either ravaged by the weather shift of the calamity, war with dragons, or both.

But, I guess if Ul'dah can dish out housing while they have tons of Ala Mhigan refuges living on the streets, than maybe the Holy See can give us housing while orphans starve to death in the burned out shells of their former homes.

Hopefully not until they fix the problems with the Housing structure as it is right now.

There are already a number of Ishgardians with out a roof over their heads and you want a house of your own there? Shame on you.

The moogles in Churning Mists had a meeting with the elezen from the Heavenly Knight to talk about teaching them architecture and such to restore the place.. Maybe it's an hint?

Wonder how that would work for new players who join an FC with a house in ishgard, since they're so dead set on no one going to ishgard who hasn't finished the 2.0 story...

I want a house in Sea of Clouds please ^^

Actually, when do we get personal housing, period question mark. That's what I'd like to know. Been waiting since 1.0 here.

The only thing I can think of is allow players to teleport to their FC house, but not let them leave the residential area into Ishgard/Western Coerthas/wherever they'd actually be. That or maybe they'll change requirements when it's implemented. I thought in a live letter they said it'd be around a year before we saw it? x-x (can someone confirm/deny?)

Western Coerthas looks like the most probably place to me. The're rebuilding the area from rubble according to the story and it has the most wide open space. Plus Aurora viewing nights? :D

There is personal housing. It's the same houses that are available to FCs.

As for Ishgard housing, here ya go. Taken from Live Letter XXIII Q&A:

Q63. I really love the scenery in the new areas. Do you have plans to introduce a housing ward in Ishgard?

A63. We’re currently working to solve the inconvenience in the extended wards, so we believe it’ll be after this. This is because we think we first need to create a transfer system for players who wish to move to an Ishgard area.

There is? Funny, I still can't seem to access it. Never noticed, tbh.

Possibly by not allowing fcs to buy houses there, only personal houses.
