Translations (JP to English)

Caravan Security has same feature as Behest, in one Caravan Security up to 4 players can participate, and each Caravan Security starts every 15 minutes.

I'm curious if this will be instanced with a 15 minute timer, or if it's open world and everyone between 25 and 50 have to fight over four spots every cycle.

I hope it's open world, but JP thread is also talking about this saying if its just like behest then you would probably have to fight for the spot.

If it has 15min timer it probably will comes with 30min/1hour cooldown.
1hour makes more sense if it only limited to 4 players per entry.

This. Just to make sure you are not just doing this event every 15 minutes all day and getting a lot of seals for it. Also, not fair if the same 4 people happen to find a way to hit the NPC before everyone else, it wouldn't end well.

Will be packed for a week or so then popularity will die down and make the 15 min timer and 4 people limit less restricting. So yeah if you really want to do it at the systems launch get ready to form a line!

I wonder if we will see epic lines like when the NPC companion launched on XI lol.

Since it is company based, do you think it will reward players in seals? A repeatable seals event would be in high demand.... Hello Personal Chocobo

Yes, you get seals

The caravan will come under attack en route to its destination. Players must fend off the hostile creatures and see the caravan safely to the hamlet within the allotted time limit. Those who complete the task will earn company seals based on the amount of cargo delivered intact.

YoshiP just posted on JP thread, don't think this applies to US locale but anyways... result of naming change for Aichakudo - Spirit Bond JP locale name. 2nd part has some info on why they didn't want to go by AP so that part might interest some.

プロデューサ/ディレクターの吉田です。
遅くなってすみません。
Producer/Director Yoshida here,
Sorry for the delay

「愛着度」の名称変更ですが
「錬精度（れんせいど）」となりました。
Regarding the naming "Aichakudo" we decided to use the name "Renseido"

想いや精神、マテリアの結晶化など、複数のイメージを重ねた上で、
皆さんのご意見も参考にさせて頂きつつ確定でございます
Combining everyone's suggestions/ideas having your feeling, or spiritual bond, or materializing we decided on this one

APは非常に迷ったのですが、将来的に"Ability Point"など
他のシステムでの使用が予測されたことと、
今回の錬精度がゲージ表示であることから、ポイントという単語は、
イメージが合わなくなるなどから、今回は見送りました。
As for AP we really thought about it but for later we may plan to use AP for other systems for such as "Ability Point", and this times "renseido" will be displayed in a guage so it wouldn't match with the word "point" therefore we didn't use it this time around.

Thank you all for this 1 year playing and love/supporting since FFXIV CE edition!

We have lots of areas the dev/management team and including myself needs to work on.
We really apologize regarding the MAP and server as well.
(Regarding this one after 1.19 patch release, I should be able to talk about it)

これからも、開発/運営一同、2周年、3周年とその先まで、全力で走り続けますので、
引き続きのプレイ、叱咤激励と、ご愛顧のほど、宜しくお願い致します
Dev/Management team will continue to working hard the 2nd, 3rd year, and on so please continue to play, encourage, love/support. thank you

P.S.
Reinheartさんの企画ヒドイｗ　却下ｗ
P.S.
Reinheart your idea is bad w Rejected w

lol I guess I'll translate what I posted for the 1 year anniversary idea... lol

よしP　の夏のイベントの壁紙に出てきた・・・あのキャラ＋顔でNMとしてポップ（サイズは普通のキャ ラの2倍ぐらいかな）、　目から閃光が出てくる、コーヒーを投げてくる、煙で煙幕を張るなどしながら逃げ回るよしPのを捕まえないといけない　なんてのは どうだ？ｗ
Why not have YoshiP come out as an NM, YoshiP will look just like the summer even poster with that custom face. (For size make it double the usual character size).
It shoots out beam from the eyes, throw you coffee, and uses smoke (like smoke bomb to blind you) and he runs around so you have to catch him. w

スリプルはレジストするらしい、掛かっても2－3秒で解けてしまう、食べ物を与えると速度が少しだけ落ちるとか？？　食べ物はだめか、美味いコーヒーかタバコはだめだからなんか変わりになる物を与えるかだな。
It seems as he resists sleep spell a lot, even if it works it goes away in 2-3 seconds, maybe give him some food and he'll slow down? Mmm I guess no food, maybe give him good tasting coffee or since we can't do cigarette's in-game maybe something to replace that.

捕まえたとしても、意味不明なポエムを言われるだけで、謎を解かないといけない！　
（そろそろ1.19で謎解けるらしいけど、ポエム知ってる人なら忘れられないだろうｗ）　
Even if you catch him, he's going to just tell you some weird/mysterious poem and you have to solve the puzzle behind the poem.
(Seems like the poem mystery will finally be revealed in 1.19, but pretty sure those that know/remember the "POEM" will not forget it w)

謎が解けたら貰える物：　あのよしPの夏イベント壁紙のあの顔のお面
Reward if you solve the puzzle: Mask with the face from YoshiP's summer event poster

HAHA. Rein, you so funny. Isn't it crazy that the producer of FFXIV addressed your idea personally? Boy SE has come a long way!
