FFXIV Live Letter #5 General Discussion

A big thank you to Magnesium02 and Niqote for taking and sharing the screenshots during the broadcast!

It seems so. I think they said that all pvp gear is animal/beast themed in some way?

Oh, I didn't catch that bit of info. Then perhaps this is one of the lower tier armours.

From Reinhart's live translation:
y this is pvp reward
y; it’s different from regular FF style
y this is job gear for pvp
y theme is beast looking ones
y there are more

According to this, beast themed gear might only be pvp or it could just mean the ones they were showing atm were all beast themed. My memory of what they specifically said in Japanese is fuzzy but I thought they meant all the beast themed gear would only be attainable via pvp.

Thanks! It could well be that the one in the video is part of the pvp rewards then :3 Not sure how I personally feel about beast themed armour, never was a fan of that in any game but they do have a neat design!
