At least this isn't something like Alexander.

Anyway, all that pushed aside; I noticed in the dungeon preview on the site today that Snowcloak doesn't have a prerequisite listed, while the other two are the usual "beat the main story" - which seems to suggest Snowcloak will actually be part of 2.4's story?

In the german text, the prerequisite is „Häretischer Hinterhalt“. Translated it is something like "Heretical ambush"

hmmm, so you automatically get the arm tattoo for wearing that rogue outfit?

Sure hope so, that would be great!

I just need a release date so I know what day to stay up camping the servers so I can get a personal house. :/

I wish they had done this, because I think just releasing one new job by itself is a bit problematic. Everyone's going to be doing Ninja at the patch release, and DPS is the one role that's *not*currently underplayed.

3 more dung ppl will do now and forget bout the rest
Players will finish story - lv up the new class (if they like it) and leave again
Endgame its soooooo broken since hunts
FFXIV its stuck in the worst gear treadmill i have ever see/ changing every 2 months

Sugestions:
STOP the gear treadmill and focus into a more horizontal progressión . Balance the Dungs and their drop (ilv 60-80 have not reason to be if u can get ilv 90 in few days hunting)
FIX crafting... affter 1 star the crafintg system became TOO expensive and anything but rewarding
FIX game mechanic: Titan Ex an Coil T5 have a LOT of players STUCK since months, game mechanics requires more internet speed an hardware than the rest of the game and allows not even a minimal mistake (really hard for a duty finder party). Also raid lock force players to cordinates agendas, something REALLY hard for adults with a family and job. Low lv dung and old ones represent more challege than new ones and gives less drop

Lets just wait till it's out before we form opinions, okay?

read the rest of the post, okay?

i'm really tired of this community, always ready to jump to attack the others if they don't have the same opinion of the majority.
