As an upcoming Ninja fan, I would like to know the following. Will Ninja share Monk gear in the same manner BLM shares gear with SMN?

Will we ever get to board the airship/boat to experience the traveling, scenery, and fishing en route to the destination like in ffxi and ffxiv 1.0? Maybe a 5 minute ride? please..

In the intro of FF14 ARR, specifically towards the end portion of it, we see characters yielding "Battle Standards".

Many MMOs have adopted some form of the Battle Standard and have used it to provide buffs at times or just for looks.

Although the "Battle Standard" was in the intro, do you have any intentions of implementing them in to FF14 ARR?

For Behemoth there is Behemoth 's dominion, for Odin there is a crystal in Urth's Gift. For Thanalan there are NPCs talking of a mystery train, tracks are spread out in Western Thanalan, and even Phantom Train qorks for the Garleans. Is there a possibility of A Doomtrain/Phantom Train FATE in Western Thanalan? Mind you there is such high demand there are characters named Doomtrain Thanalan.

Is it possible to make it so that a crafter's stats can affect the success rate of melding?

Hello again!

- When will the FC house Basement where we are supposed to craft our Airship be coming?

- is that something that we could do into our own personal houses?

- Will we be able to have our separate room (bedroom like an INN) in our personal house and basement?

- Will personal houses get in the way of FC houses? Will there still be a point to them?

Thank you for your time.

Classes

Are there plans to added second Jobs to those classes that don't have them yet, like a tank Job for lancer or DD Job for conjurer?

Hello!

I guess you will talk about Hunts in your Live letter, since the feedback from you was very limited after the playerbase discontent, which is still up-to-date as I type.

1a - How will you adjust it to balance the game again?
1b - or will you let it slide until the next content, thinking that players will get bored once they are all fully geared, and they will go back into Dungeons/Trials?

2- Since Yugiri and Ninja were linked: Are you keeping that surprise or can you tell us if for 2.4, the new race will be available?

Since I plan to purchase another account because mainly of the friends referral bonuses (Circlet) and the duo-chocobo until the wedding system (no other friends wants to play the game as it is now) - It would be nice to start fresh with a new race, new class, and new storyline!

Thank you for your consideration.

Hi hi ^^

Last one for me today.

With the boredness lvl of players increasing, and to see 3.0 being too far away:

- Will you be showing us the roadmap you have with the timeframe set for 2.35 up to 3.0? (we understand there can be some complication that could postpone some of them)

- Will you be opening one new map with higher-lvl monsters and new Fates, and new secrets? Like, not only in 3.0, but.. in 2.4?

- Hope you can tease us with other classes/jobs other than Rogue/Ninja. My Fun comes from leveling classes, so only one seems.. not much.

So far, still a great game.

Keep up the good work, and: don't neglect the players demand, unless very silly. Long live SE!
