Ask Questions for Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XIV! (General)

[MapleDeepDish]

Will you please implement countermeasures to discourage tanks and healers from fishing for In Progress runs by constantly withdrawing when a duty pops and its not In Progress. Maybe a stacking penalty where the more times you withdraw from a duty within a 24 hour period the bigger time penalty for re-entering the duty finder. Also along the same lines, can you make it so that people who zone into a duty roulette run before others and then drop still get the 30 minute penalty and/or lose their duty roulette bonus for that category for the day? This seems like a simple fix to something that can really negatively impact people's enjoyment and waste their limited playtime.

While I like our small lot I wish the house was a bit bigger. Though we now has a basement to put us on par with the large and medium houses. But how about a 2 story small house or adding a 3rd level to the medium and large house. Possibly adding a balcony for the large houses. It seems that aside from housing prices there is much that can still be done. I believe different story houses would add a nice dynamic to the housing wards

I would like to ask a question about Chocobos.

A while ago I heard that we would be able to reset our chocobo's Skill Points with an item similar to Keeper's Hymn. I was wondering if:

1. That was still in the process of being made and
2. When they were coming?

I know some of my friends (myself included) have gotten to Rank 10 (or close to) and either regret which tree they put their skills in, or didn't put skills into the same tree and want the special Rank 10 barding. Personally, I want to switch out my DPS Chocobo to a Healing one.

I have question I am not sure if anyone ask this. If they have I'm sorry for repeating the question. Just one question

1. Is there way you can change your mind about limiting what we can glamour? For an example since I'm a Paladin Job I would like to glamour my Tank Armor into an allagan Tunic of Healing.

[Joshy]

Will we be seeing a new class/job(s)?

Which job(s)?

Will you be announcing the next job(s) at E3 this year?

[SophiaParatus]

Hi! I would just like to know if/when we should start to see more chocobo stuff come out (breeding/raising, racing, etc.). Is this still going to come out? Is there any timeline on these features?

[Aldotsk]

1. When will the Musketeer actually come out? Will you be leaving the guild empty for a very long time?

2. Will you be lowering the restriction for glamour systems, where we can wear something different despite our classes?

[sonicnknuckels]

will Atma drop rates be changed so that people don't have to be lucky to get them? Can you add some type of defense to warriors that can rival a shield block for paladins. Ive noticed paladins have parry block and the several skills to mitigate damage as where warriors have slightly more hp and an occasional parry. the difference in hp doesn't make up for the amount of damage reduction the other class has. It discourages me from wanting to be a warrior. Also holmgang needs to be instantaneous. Ive hit the button for it and have still been killed even though it activates. And my biggest question is when are we finally going to get the directx 11 version?
I'm ready to set my PC to max and see the world of ff 14 ARR in more detail.

[Welsper59]

Any chance we'll see the ability to repair gear without having to switch to that specific crafting class? Assuming we meet the required craft level to do it, of course. It'd help a lot in dungeons/raids and just overall QoL.

[sonicnknuckels]

Now my question for this is...If we are giving our retainers classes and levels is there a chance we could make parties with our own npcs in future content. Honestly taking on titan ex with npcs might be better than playing it with other people ;p
