    The live letter has started. Interesting thing, they are going to have channels/instances of some of the 3.0 zones to spread the congestion on servers. I presume it's a temporary measure.

    Good on them, these temporary measures should be well received.

    (its 3am for me, ill do my best to add a few notes)
    (I'll have to find Abriel and link the SSs I am sure he is taking here lol)


    Peridot and Helidor Carbucle Minions shown off by Yoshida (OMG It's sooooo cute)

    Workshops for FC houses look VERY nice and are completely built upon purchase for 1mill gil, there is some familiar BGM

    Fabrication (crafting station) looks amazing and gives Large previews of Parts for airships and houses.

    Fabrication takes some time to create rather then being instantly complete (It's an automatic craft though). Yoshida Crafted a Hull and it took about 1 minute.

    A party of crafters will be needed to Fabricate (some) items rather then just 1 crafter.

    ----------------Exploratory voyages (Flight Control Panel)----------------- - Get that treasure!

    You can have up to 4 FC airships registered.

    All FC get 4 - no matter is the land is S, M or L.

    See a preview of the airship you will deploy, choose its route, you can see what areas are unlocked for you on the display map.

    The airship can go to multiple destinations (Time away will be lengthened) eg. 3 destinations at once takes 24 hours

    Voyages will be expanded on throughout 3.X

    You can change the parts (How it looks and its stats such as speed) of your airships. So each piece is not permanent.

    Parts and the Airships have different Ranks. Going on voyages gives you EXP up on the airship.

    Your airship can discover new islands.

    Your airship can bring back recipes for new parts (i might have misheard it but same diff)

    Airships could even be away for a whole week! You should plan your voyages.

    There will be a flight log that tells you where it went and what items were discovered.

    FCs can use information exchange to find out where certain items are.

    You might hit a mother-load and get many items! Or a single very rare item.

    ---------------New recruit a friend campaign----------------

    Fist Bump emote, Twintania mount, Red Chocobo seem to be exclusive to the new friend recruitment campaign in which you earn ''Chocobo feathers'' and trade them in for the prizes. 8 for chocobo and 15 for Twin.

    Twintania mount does a 'divebomb barrel roll'

    You get 5 feathers + fist bump emote for just inviting a friend (invite 3 friends = 15) (I think)

    You also get bonus feathers if they buy subscription time
    150 days, 210 days and 270 days all receive 5 gold chocobo feathers each tier

    Previous recruitment friends and their subscription times do count towards this since they are INVITER rewards

    Invitee rewards now include fist bump emote, 99 aether tickers and 10 silver chocobo feathers

    Silvers are used to buy some gear that makes LOW level adventuring easier.


    ----------------------New Loot System-----------------------------


    This infos been released int he patch notes.

    Duty finder must use the 'normal' Need, Greed, Pass.

    So exercise common sense and only join Pre-made parties in which you agree with the loot rules.

    Alexander (Normal)

    Trade tokens from coffers in for gear. (A number of them will be in a coffer, might be adjusted in future)

    One token can be obtained/person a week.

    1 Token A can be turned in for an accessory.
    4 Token B's can be turned in for a body piece.

    You can play the same turn/level as many times as you like in the week. It's like CT/ST/WoD.

    Update Schedule

    Alex in 2 weeks after offical launch. 4 weeks bring Savage, Esoterics, new frontline, Red DoL/DoH Scrips open

    Live Letter XXIII will be aired on July 10th

    Before the Fall: OST on sale Aug 26 and includes the exclusive 'The Primogs minion' (5 moogles playing various instruments. harp, trumpet and that bloody horn from the wedding ceremony)

    Welcome back campaign.
    Gives people coming back an item to get iLvL120 gear (They don't say its pretty or exclusive so its probably just the rowena 120 gear???)

    I'm so tired. Why wont the stream stop pausing *shakes fist at it* Someone please get me Carbuncle plushies, I am so poor.

    Vet reward (840 days)
    Wild Rose Set from FFII 5 x piece set. (No weapon)

    OMG he is touching the carbuncle plushies they are so cute!! They will be on sale soon ;_;

    There is a wire in the tail for posing. Of course Japan gets them first at 'Japan Expo' you lucky folks.
    Then in EU store, then in NA (Comicon).
    The rest of us need to barter our souls or at least our first borns.
    The lovely in game minions of course come with the lovely plushies...
