Producer Letter XLVIII (July 25, 2013)

[Molly_Millions]

Can you dump all your stats at level 50 into one stat, or was it like 1.0 where you could only put roughly 20~ points into one? I didn't test much in Phase 3, so I forgot to check this.

I'm pretty certain that you can. Last phase I went 20 VIT and 10 STR for PLD, but I think I dumped everything to STR for WAR if I remember correctly.

anyone else notice in the screeshots it shows lvl 50 but 14020/562000 towards next level

Let me just say oh-em-gee...

[Rane]

We are two weeks away from the most likely start date for Phase 4, and about a month away from official release. FFXIV: A Realm Reborn is just around the corner.

:melodrama:

But it is now, as we are so close to that hour spoken of in prophecy, that I find I am no longer able to endure this intense anticipation. Aye, I have been shackled to it for so long that I barely know myself. I reach out toward a hazy, moogle-shaped apparition, to pat its fluffy pom-pom--I can almost touch it! But alas, it is gone. In fact, it never was. My loins, how they throb with desire for Eorzea, for her lands, denizens, and beasts alike! Oh, what a cruel mistress she is--cruel, yet beautiful! Yet cruel.

For four long years I have dreamt of what Final Fantasy could be, filled with hope--then despair!--then hope. But now, at the hour of triumph, I find myself faltering in body and mind alike. That I should walk this long, punishing road, only to fall short with the end in plain view yet just beyond reach! I can feel the cool breeze of Eorzea reborn upon my cheek, smell her sweet bouquet, hear her soothing melodies. It...it is a fate most tragic, but it is mine.

Fellow adventurers, pray carry on without me. Leave me here, leave my body to wither upon the road, my scorched bones to serve as a reminder of those who walked in the dark times, of the burdens we bore over the course of our long journey. It is my destiny. For I am unfit....to set foot......upon the promised land. /swoon

I think the people thinking what they've seen in the beta as being too easy so far are going to be in for a treat in the higher levels.

I think the difficulty should gradually increase, which technically has happened as different mechanics get introduced into some fights, but people just have to remember that those that have been playing MMOs for a long time are able to pick up on things quicker than those newer to the genre.

Thank you, my friend. Thank you for saving this poor, humble soul. By your kindness I will know eternal bliss in the embrace of A Realm Reborn.

May the twelve be ever on your side!

And....curtain!

Good to know, thanks!
