    [Suggestion] Constellations and moon

    Some little ideas.
    I'd really love to see actual constellations on the night sky (with the possibility to get maps about it with special quests). Some could represent mighty creatures (bahamuth, leviathan, gilgamesh, etc.), others should represent the Twelve.
    And depend on the area you are, you see different ones in the sky. Devs could put some benefits when you are under a constellation that shows your deity (you choose in the character creation). When the weather is cloudy, the benefits could decrease a bit.

    For the moon, i think it has already an actual influence with its phases but dunno which sincerely (for crafting?). It should have influence on fishing for sure. Maybe some seaside areas could be affected by the moon, with low and high tide (some paths could be open or close). Some normal monters or NM could appear with full moon.. and so on.

    Love the idea! Always been an avid stargazer. Would be really neat to see what kind of night sky they could dream up.

    I also request telescopes!

    Imagine the lines! Would be harder to get a turn then a DRG in a Hamlet! would be fun though. I'm sure Limsa would be a great place for star and sky related goodies, as they are seafarers.

    (Even though i'm a Gridanian tried and true, Limsa needs some love too)

    constellations would be nice and can base some of the lore from the game into the constellations like them representing the gods or heros of old. As they do in the greek mythos (Orion, Taurus, Pleides and such)

    I have a secret to tell. From my electrical well. It's a simple message and I'm leaving out the whistles and bells. So the room must listen to me Filibuster vigilantly. My name is blue canary one note* spelled l-i-t-e. My story's infinite Like the Longines Symphonette it doesn't rest- TMBG Birdhouse in your Soul
    A huge THANK YOU!!!! For FINALLY selling the Meteor Survivor Polo on the store. AND a huge thanks to my friend who bought it for me while he was at Fan Fest!!! YES I finally have my POLO!!!

    Would be nice, I remember stargazing in FFXI and it was always nice seeing a (fairly) well done skybox. Finding the avatar stars and constellations were pretty cool the first time on the boat ride to selbina.

    The stars were a large basis for the fan developed elemental crafting compass too.

    I would definitly welcome this idea as well. There would be a lot to do with the lore about the Twelves and the Primals.

    On a side note, I already thought that the sky at night seemed beautiful.

    Small buff reliant on the zodiac perhaps?
