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

[Scox]

Will we be able to increase the item level of our Primal weapons or our existing Relic Zeniths?

[Warrlordd]

will the BCoB gear be 20 ilvls higher than the currently farmable gear?
Also, is the plan for CT such that it will do what 2.1 did, fill in that gap? or will the two now begin to be more challenging than the last one released? ill be honest i liked mechanics of CT, but it was really easy. and now boring. a challenge will be welcomed!

[Cons]

Can you consider implementing a way for us to socket our own high tier gear so we can fully utilise materia

[Lazypete]

Can we expect to see further improvements to the relic weapons, so that they're one of the best weapons in the game?

If you adjust the relic so it's still a good weapon, will you change the way to get it?
I mean it would be stupid to have Titan HM to fight to get a weapon that is wayyy more powerful than the fight to get it.

If the item level requirement is only 55 for the three new dungeons, does that mean the monsters inside will only hit about as hard as the monsters in Copperbell (Hard), etc.? Please make these dungeons a challenge for players who have been level 50 for more than a couple of weeks.

The note says ilvl55 or better! hey haven't specified YET the item level of dungeon, they still could be ilvl70 or ilvl80 (got goose bumps thinking about it)

Will there be in increase in the Meldable Crafting Gear and the removal of this ridiculous limitation on what can be melded to it?

Meldable Crafting Gear should keep up with the Major Dungeon and Mob Drops. Looking at the progression of gear introduction, this has not been the case. Level 90 Dungeon/Notorious Mob drops should require level 90 crafting gear be available. Additionally, if someone wants to gear up as the Rock of Gibraltar with 5 level 5 Vitality Materia in every gear slot, so be it as there is always a trade off to the various stats. Maybe they could solo a Titan Extreme Solo Mob but it may take them 10 hours to do it. Who cares, it is what provides the bragging right. Right now, everything is essentially cookie cutter, i.e.. booorrrriiinnngggggggg.

Will the I80 gears be moved to other locations for players to be able to attain so we don't have to deal with the behaviors in labrynth of the ancients?

[Lemon8or]

Can you show us the rest of the new weapons/armors?

[HeavenlyArmed]

How will the Gerolt gear mentioned on the 2.2 website be obtained and what will its ilvl be?
Can we expect AF2 to be in 2.2 and if so, what will its ilvl be?

i love relics and how you have to do the quest to get them , and by the looks of it there be more quest to makes them stronger, do you plan on keeping the relics that we have and just upgrading them thru quests or do you plan on making it so later on we'll just throw these away and swap them up for new ones. i honestly have to say i wouldn't like to just throw them away, but then again the option of new weapons is interesting. that being said if plan are to keep relics by upgrading do you plan on doing limit breaks for each class specific for each weapon provided they have the upgraded relic, down the road, for example monk - pummel, black mage - ultima, etc. thank you for your time.


p.s. anything new on companions?
