Q50: Can you obtain Allagan tomestones from hard-mode dungeons?

A50: Yes, you can.

[Bayohne]

Q51: Will there be any rare crafting materials that you can only obtain through the hard-mode dungeons?

A51: Crafting materials are tied more with the treasure hunt content that will be introducing in the next Letter from the Producer Live. However, please note that there are certain housing-related items that you can only obtain through these dungeons.

Q52: What benefits are there for doing hard-mode dungeons?

A52: Hard-mode dungeons will expand your options for obtaining Allagan tomestones.

Q53: What’s the item level requirement for the extreme primal fights?

A53: We are thinking around item level 70. Basically it will be the next step of the main story after defeating Titan hard mode, so the item level required to beat him.

Q54: How hard will the extreme primal battles be? Is it going to be content where if you make just one mistake you'll completely wipe?

A54: It will be quite severe. I think it depends on the situation, but I don’t think it will be the case where you can’t recover during battle.

Q55: What kind of mechanics will we see in the extreme primal battles?

A55: (Shown in stream)

Q57: You can obtain weapons for the hard mode primal battles, but what kind of rewards will there be for the extreme-modes?

A57: When you clear extreme-modes for Ifrit, Garuda, and Titan, you'll be able to obtain an item level 90 weapon as a reward. We've prepared weapons for each job.
