The Sphere Scroll states that there's a maximum of 75 slots that you can infuse. Unofficial sources also state that you can only increase 2 stats. Does that mean that if I choose to upgrade Piety and Determination on my WHM I would be giving up 11 extra stats?

You can increase 3 stats too... or 4 stats... or even 5...

With what the community has figured out so far regarding the Relic Novus quest, I think it's quite clear that even casuals will eventually score enough Alexandrites to perform the Sphere Scroll infusions. A much bigger problem is the necessary materia.
Materia III and IV were already expensive before, and with the amount of materia that will be needed for reasonable stat distribution, I feel that we need more ways of obtaining such materia.
Do you have any plans to make them purchasable with GC seals? (different ranks required for different materia ranks)

Doing that would also solve a lot of perceived griefing in dungeons and raids where people go full spiritbond setups forcing the others to work much harder to clear the content.
It would also have a sideeffect of more people running dungeons for gear that can be turned in for seals, and of more people running FATEs, keeping dungeons and FATEs more relevant than they are today.

Why isn't there any support but only "punishments" for the multi-jobs gameplay style?

[KerenRhys]

Why creating new classes/jobs when the multi-jobs system is currently under-used?

Have you considered changing the relic weapon animus/novus system to one with a higher degree of player control, such as daily quests?

Example:
- 5 dailies available for novus each day
- each daily rewards an alexandrite
- each daily incorporates a variety of content (dungeon/leve/hunting/complete x number of fates in a zone)
- each daily takes 1-2 hours to complete
- a hardcore player may be able to finish all quests each day, while a casual player may finish one or two per day

Such a system would completely remove RNG(Fate) and Brayflox spamming (myth) both of which frustrate and tire players.

Will we have at least one job added per role (DPS/HEAL/TANK), and will they all be in the same patch?

With crafted gear only i90, any chance of using i90 gear in crafts to make i100 gears, needing drops from Crystal Tower?

The FFXIV: ARR OST is out of supply for it's 1st run in NA region but not EU or JP regions. Is there going to be a redistibution of 1st run soundtracks or is it no longer capapble for NA consumers to get the Bahamut minion without going to 3rd party vendors at inflated prices while the other 2 regions are not selling as well as forecasted and still can for initial market value?

There is no localization, all regions are just redistribution of originating from the JP market, so why not redistribute as long as the total supply is there?

Will we ever see Final Fantasy XIV:A Realm Reborn coming to 360 and Xbox One?

short answer: no.

Long answer: unless Microsoft gets convinced to not force a usage of their own servers, no.

OT, the rebalancing that is coming in 2.3 to adjust blm stdps and any other adjustments, what all will be part of that?

Is there any chance of creating a "namingway" item purchasable via mog station in the future?

Confess! What's up with Shatotto in FFXIV and Shantotto in FFXI. Are these two mysteriously related in some way?
