Ask Questions for Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XIII! (Ventures)

[Blindheart]

Can we get a 3rd retainer? Or will using this system unlock additional ones? Between crafting, gathering, and saving dungeon dropped gear for glamor or hopefully displaying in personal housing, (on all classes/jobs) I'm almost out of space.

[EveK]

The addition of more retainer-related content sounds great, but it also highlights and magnifies a current problem with retainers: there's basically no way to change their appearance. In theory, we can completely empty a retainer's inventory to do so, but that would be tedious even if we could find a place to put everything they're holding. Please comment on plans to allow a retainer to be replaced with a new one automatically inheriting the old one's inventory, for Fantasia and the aesthetitician to be extended to retainers, etc. Thanks! =)

Will we be able to hire additional retainers using real money on the mog station? If yes, how much will these retainers cost?

[Tannlore]

Exactly what specific services will the retainers used in venture offer?

[Antanias]

If Ventures will increase retainer levels, what will the retainer level cap be to start us off?

[Sasha]

Will ventures involve sending our retainers to attack other retainers to stop them from selling for a while?

(You could include leveling them up, getting different abilities and group battles)

[DavidMotherbrain]

Will we be able to raise the "level" of the retainer in specific ventures/jobs? Also, will there be obtainable abilities/perks?

[Beetle]

Will we be able to set our Retainer to tend on our Fields in Housing..?
Will Venture have a leveling up progress in someway to improve them as we use Venture feature more often?

[Veritas-Ancora]

Please give us another retainer, this could make inventory space even worse. :-(

- The economy is unstable because half the people are trying to make profit, the other just want to remove items as cheaply as possible for more bag space.
- Economy prices (especially on Gilgamesh) fluctuate as far as 1000 gil per item within an hour. This could be stabilized if we could hold more items so less people undercut the economy.
- I still can't store my holiday items from December into the armoire, so I'm forced to delete them to make more bag space.

Will we be able to use the Aesthetician on our Retainers yet? I want to be able to change my retainer's hairstyle to one of the recently added ones. Also, I really would like to be able to dress my retainers up in... well, anything is better than the handmaid/maiden gear they wear now.
