Ask Questions for Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XIV! (General)

[MaesterLunima]

Will there be anymore dungeons involving our megitech armors? A remix to devil's lab would be awesome to hear in it if we had such.

Are you going to add an area that explains more back story surrounding the Primals, like what was seen in Final Fantasy 6? That would be so awesome in Eorzea.

[MaesterLunima]

Do we not have any dwarfs in our online world that is seen quite often in the offline versions? Are you going to add a underworld like what is experienced in Final Fantasy 2? If so, whats the timeline for the release?

Are we ever going to see more epic evil villian outside of Coil or is the main story at a stand still until the next expansion?

Since you are adding the Golden Saucer, is there a chance that you may add Ruby Weapon as the next weapon challenger for Eorzea to face? (Since Ruby Weapon was pretty much surround The Gold Saucer in FF7).

Will there be any future cameos of past Final Fantasy heroes (like you did with Lightning)? Could you add villians from older games?

Hi, can we get a feature that allows crafting with material held by our retainers? It's very annoying to keep crafting material in my character inventory because I end up with very little available space. Ontop of that, some materials look the same and I have to check each and every one to for the material I need to create something. When I have almost 100 items in my inventory things become very tedious. Is it possible to program the ability to craft things and use the material our retainers are holding?

I'm probably going to repeat a ton of things other's mentioned, but if we don't suggest enough, well you know..

Our Relic's need a Weapon Skill for our class/job.

We need new job/classes.
Dark Knight (Please keep this job as DPS)
Thief (call it what ever you want rouge, assassin. proper Sub Job (Ninja ))
Samurai (You already gave us Helmets, Ronin sounds nice, why not?)
Our Beast Masters want their Beast Master!

I agree that our class armors should look different from the rest of the classes/jobs.
The Artifacts are perfect, but the rest of the gear could use a little more effort to make the gear stand out from the rest, for example PLD and WAR use the exact same Armor.(Excluding AF). Glamour work's but it's really nothing to special.

My main job and only job is Paladin here on XIV, i'm more of a DPS. On XI i was Dark Night, actually i liked just about every job on XI but maily DPS. Ninja was great for mission, quests... anyways... great game.

A few questions
1) We got ilvl 90 crafted gear, and yet no tier V materia? Because of this the Ilvl 90 crafted gear does not scale as high as the ilvl 70 did in comparison to its ilvl 90 counterpart. Besides this would breath a little more life into the economy, and more spiritbond parties.

2) BLM buffs? How about some ranged auto attack? The job doesn't feel like the classic glass cannon that it should. While I do enjoy many of the mechanics in the game, many of them work against BLM far more than any other class. For instance a whm can cast cure spells even if their target runs behind them, why cant blm? If you get caught running from Thorny Vines, while getting eaten its easy for astral fire to fall off and you loose way to much dps trying to get it back up.

3) For lead designer: While we all wait in anticipation for new hairstyles, I am wondering if we may soon get some new facial hair choices! I would love to give my miqote a proper beard, or at least some stubble. ^^

i know I'm probably too late in asking but is there any plans to add the option of toggling the error message and sound on/off as for me I like to both press buttons repetitively and use macros on my scholar and in both cases I get constant error messages and it has really became far too annoying so to be able to turn it off without turning off the rest of the sounds would be great.

thank you.

Can we please have the crafting materials that drop in expert dungeons moved from boss chests to side chests please? I am regularly running these dungeons as a tank and hoping to pick up dps class bits but, on average, 3 out of 4 chests contain crafting materials. I do not have a level 50 crafter and do not spend gil on anything other than repairs so these items are of no use to me. It is becoming increasingly disappointing to run an instance and not get any loot from it.

Hello! I would like to ask what the status on user created UI modifications is and if there's any chance we could get an (optional) toggle for audible notifications on procs (think bloodletter and firestarter) and possibly even cooldowns resetting =)

When can lalafells climb onto people and sit on their shoulders?

Hello! I would like to ask what the status on user created UI modifications...

Would just like to reiterate this. Any chance we'll be able to create UI addons in the future? If so, is there a timeline for implementation?
