Thread: What do we know about 2.2 so far?

I don't think creating your own alliance is coming in 2.2 but probably 2.3 with the next release of the dungeon

Problem with this method is that this only works if we are stuck with only the current classes we have now.

Also most MMO does the long tedious leveling grind because the character the player has only has 1 Job and 1 role compared to FF14 having 1 character and access to all classes/jobs.

However, we will not remain with only the current classes but will have more classes to choose from as the game progresses adding another 50 levels or more with release of new classes to deal with per character.

So far we know 1 new classes will be released before 1st expansion (a 2nd new class if we are lucky and Yoshi-P has time for it) which will add another 50 levels to go through if you spend time to level that class. Then comes the factor that their may be 1, 2, 3 or more new classes added in the 1st expansion due to having access to Ishgard and Ala Mhigo. With level cap increase as well, we are looking at may be 60 or higher additional levels depending on the level cap increase and new classes post 1st expansion. which then will a person have to level through...

80 or more new levels (10 levels or more per current class) + 60 or more from 1 new class introduced pre-1st expansion + 60 or more levels from post-expansion = 200 or more levels to level post expansion pack for 1 character.

Then there is also the factor that Yoshi-P has stated we will be having Level Cap increase as part of Major Updates, if it is necessary, so we may be seeing a level cap raise sometime in 2.4 or 2.5 depending how far the ilevel requirement for normal Main Story Scenario centent becomes. (assuming per Major Update we see Main Story Scenario content increase by ilvl 5 per Major update)

GE- With ARR we’ll see Arcanist added with Summoner shortly after the game launches. Are there any other classes or jobs you’d like to see added? And will these be added in patches or expansions?

Yoshida- What I would like to see right?

First of all, we are planning a new race for an expansion pack. For the classes and jobs, we will introduce them through patches because all of the Legacy players have level 50 jobs anyway. When we introduce new classes and jobs we will probably increase the level cap at the same time.
.

So before 1st expansion is released we may have our level cap raised to lvl 55 or 60 but there is still a chance Yoshi-P may raise the Level cap past lvl 60 before the first expansion.

What is free company alliance system?

I believe we'll also get two new HM dungeons. Not sure which ones though.
