Looking to the future, will armor in Final Fantasy XIV feature capes or cloaks? This is a feature that is greatly desired by the game's community.

What is the likelihood of the retainer's basic outfit being made into a costume for players?

Are there any plans to add more AoE enmity abilities to Paladin? At present it's far more difficult to hold hate on multiple mobs with Paladin compared to Warrior. Warrior has Overpower, Steel Cyclone and access to Flash. All Paladin has is Flash...

First of all thank you!
I just wanted to say I love that your adding more hairstyles in to the game, the more the better, This is really specific but I'd love the original design for Squall's hair,


Thanks

[Meier]

Can we get a more vibrant red for hair? Like fire engine red? And longer hair styles for all races/genders please!

Looking at the White Mage's AF robe, it appears to be a dress with a small cloak/hood over it. Would you consider creating separate versions of the two to equip? I'd love to pair the signature WHM hood with the new Spring Skirt for a cuter WHM look!

Hi, do you guys plan to add lightnings/Snows hair style and outfit gear accessible to all eventually as I have been asked a lot of times about her gear and hair style and I know it is something a lot of players who missed out on the events can get them or even re-adding the event as a permanent feature or even adding it in as a veteran reward??

The materia system as it is now makes NO sense at all.. we cannot macro real time skill speed... so its broken there.. we also cannot boost main stats.. WHICH IS THE WHOLE POINT OF MATERIA.. you also cannot link materia to end game raid equip... which makes the system seem very very dull and pointless. I keep hearing game balance this.. and game balance that.. but honestly.. it wont effect the game balance AT ALL.. everyone would have the option to be equipped how they see fit. If it makes game content easier.. THATS WHAT IT IS SUPPOSED TO DO. Right now the gear is just blah... the ability to make real time macros and meld ALL gear would be greatly appreciated.. maybe expand materia give traits as well as stats or something.. like counter attack or mug.. for example.

As a player of final fantasy from the original nes version... I love rpgs.. and mmorpg was just an instant love for me... but with that being the case... I and ALOT of other people who play this have most if not all jobs to 50.. weekly lock outs do not make sense anymore.. I need an open way to gear all of my jobs.. if it is just the ilv100 pieces .. fine.. but having all of them 20 levels below cap because of the lock out is just frustrating.. I can only gear one job even though the whole model was made to play all of them on one character? I know it will make content outdated and no one will do it.. but you can implement all of it into daily roulette and the newer people will have an even BETTER chance at gearing to new levels and keeping up with content..

In 1.0 some of the endgame armour completely covered the tail on Miqo'te.
The same armour set carried over does not feature this, nor does any other armour set in the game.

My tail is exposed and is vulnerable! Will we ever have tail-covering plate armour back in the game, much like the (currently broken) Evenstar outfit?
