from our friends at novacrystallis.com

Patch 2.16 is set to include:

Summoning Bell in Revenant’s Toll
New Features for the Market Boards (Wish List feature, and adjustments on the filters)
Ability to summon minions and mounts at random
Dhorme Chimera and Hydra being added to the Duty Finder
Gear sets will automatically substitute main arm when item is not available
Cooldown timer for timeworn maps to be displayed or adjusted (not clarified)
Crafting stats will affect quick synthesis success rate
Gear dying preview feature
Notification feature for Party Finder
Mog Letter history
New achievement rewards
New feature to reselect focus targets (i.e. Primals after they disappear for certain attacks)
Map marker feature
More action icons for macros
New command to have character look towards the Camera
Characters will appear wet during rainy weather
Potential targets will have a glowing outline when hovering the mouse over them

From our friends i stated before:

Currently, the content set for Patch 2.2 (March) is as follows:

Leviathan Primal Battle (Hard and Extreme Modes)
The Amdapor Township Dungeon
The Binding Coil of Bahamut Extension
Thornmarch Extreme Mode
Brayflox’s Longstop Hard Mode
Halatali Hard Mode
New Daily Beast Tribe Quests (Kobold and Sahagin)
New Hildibrand storyline
New Allagan Tomestone types
Glamours Vanity System named Mirage Prism
New advanced crafting recipes
New fishing challenges
New Aesthetician hairstyles

They could do a patch that was just the addition of musketeer and thief and I would be content to log out for eight hours.

As someone who is returning to FFXIV (after a long time), I'm kind of disappointed they won't have the vanity system until 2.2, but if it's set for March, I guess I can be patient, and maybe actually play the game to get enough cosmetics to make use of the vanity system. I'm only slightly pissed that I just paid for a 90 day subscription and found out I couldn't log in because of a maintenance, and they're probably taking time off my sub.

Why don't you try doing some research before spending money? Too much effort?

Summoning Bell in Revenant’s Toll

I'd like to see summoning bells at all the camps, personally.

New Features for the Market Boards (Wish List feature, and adjustments on the filters)

anyone know what this means?

New command to have character look towards the Camera

Are these visual enhancements just for the PC crowd or will PS3 users be getting them too?

You're not the only one.

Well, I guess SE is fond of doppelgangers, heck they even made an event about it. LOL!

Has a plan ever been discussed, to make the weather condition affect combat and actions? Besides looking soaking wet and wanting to just sit by the hearth in Buscarron's Druthers, it would be interesting if fighting in the rain had consequences (for heroes AND enemies); ARC/BRD have wet-bowstring problems; THM/BLM toss soggy fire spells; Paladins rust...

Also... are we ever going to be able to climb ladders? Like the ladders to the watch towers around Camp Tranquil?
