Hello, may we have elemental and status effect arrows for BRD as a second hand item?
Level 10s (20, 30, 40...) could have elemental damage like fire and ice, useful for primals and
Level 5s (15, 25, 35...) could have various damage per second attacks or status effects attached to them.

Will we be able to use the lodestone ingame in the future ? Would be nice to post stuff on it while ingame.

Currently there is little true two-player content, but partying as a duo is a fun way to casually spend time with a friend when you don't want to organize a larger party for dungeons or other content. Levequests and fates are available in duos, but is there intent to make other content available for duos?

Will we be seeing what Lady Yugiri's face looks like in 2.3?

Will you please consider modifying the participation requirements for The Second Binding Coil of Bahamut and any subsequent Raids? This is becoming an increasing problem for some Coils static groups who find it hard to make progression with members of different skill levels and classes coming and going.

It would make things much easier for some statics if people who had cleared later turns of SCoB had the ability to go back and fill in member slots for fragmented groups that are trying to clear it.

I know there is concern that this may open a gateway for people to exploit this by potentially allowing them to get loot from Coils quicker. But why not simply solve this by doing what was done with Crystal Tower by making the weekly lockout apply only to treasure drops instead of "being able to enter only once a week without being able to visit previous turns"?

Please understand that this is becoming an ongoing problem for many Coils Groups who--in spite of having the skill to clear SCoB--aren't able to progress simply for not having enough people readily available to go.

Group based open world content

SWTOR has area in the open world called Heroic area. It's a more difficult area where players form groups to complete daily group quest.

Are there any plans to add something like these to Eorzea? I think it would be a neat idea to not only add the current dungeons to open world but perhaps add new beast tribe dailies in them.

Rare FATES

Are there plans to add rare FATEs similar to older MMO's rare monsters, that would randomly drop a rare item similar to Atma drop system?

[Silversuit]

Can we have more Monsters and NPCs that are affected by the world around us?

The same way Foes "escape" when a FATE ends, could we have Beasts and NPCs that preform different actions dependent of varying situations? That way we get to see more of the lesser characters react to the changing world; as well as chances for rarer monsters to appear under certain conditions.
E.G.;

• Certain Thanalan Desert beasts burrow underground when Night falls, and a different set of Monsters appear in their place until sunrise.
• During hotter days at La Noscea, Tiny Mandragoras may travel in groups. If you Wave at one in the group it may Emote the player in return.
• Certain Black Shroud beasts sleep in the nearby cave-like pathways upon stormy weather, whilst others may become slightly debuffed due to the fear of Odin lurking around.
• If a blizzard is passing through Coerthas and Behemoth falls, some Snow Wolf Pups may occasionally howl, etc.

When are we going to get our own player housing for solely our characters?
