Alright. Let's talk Airship explorations.

I doubt there will be a new set of Airship Explorations in 3.3. We're talking about brand new maps and they are very hard to design. In dungeons, you direct the players where to go, in maps, the players go where ever they want. A lot more detail needs to go into them. Think of all the nice details on the 3.0 maps, I feel it took a lot of time and effort to get it all right, something which will be very hard to find the time for in the middle of the content rush of the big patches.

SE can also just increase the ilevel range of the equips that can drop there ("up to ilevel 240" instead of "up to ilevel 210") and add a new difficulty level, like expert or extreme (making the enemies as strong as primals ^^).
It don't need to be a complete new designed map.

Wasn't there talk about letting FCs beat open world primals and gain the ability to summon it once for a week? I think that was in closed or open beta.

Yes, and i wonder what happened to that plan. Was the idea scrapped maybe?
That is a shame.

Also maybe i did not see that portion but gear will actually be dropped?
Very silly if that be true, how much different gear options is there needed.. sheesh

pink gear get dropped, with random ilevel (up to 210) and random 2nd stats.
You can keep them, spiritbind them or trade them for points.
With the points you can buy the exploration sets (ilevel ??)
