i was wondering the rules for the forum are kind of confusing and no one wants to have there question ignored because they mis interpreted the rules so i was wondering when you say several replies are allowed does that mean theres a limit or no limit because several is a very vague term

also can you please make it clear if quick replys will be ignored or not because i see lots of people posting as quick reply instead of reply to thread and would hate to see there questions ignored because they made a mistake

Hearing Yoshi P talk at Fan Fest about maybe creating a whole new "Story Mode" for The Binding Coil of Bahamut, it feels like this might take a lot of Development Time and resources away from creating newer content. Instead of that:

* When it's time to introduce "Echo Buff" (Help System), have you considered simply changing "Instant Death" Attacks in Coil to be "Heavy Damage" instead? (e.g., instead of "99999" change it to "-75% HP" (or whatever is needed).)

Even though I've completed First and Second Coil without the need for Echo, it feels like a change like this would go a long way to helping the casual players clear it, and save the Development Team time, so they can focus on making more New Content for everyone.

Thanks.

Will they be implementing more wallpapers?

I would love it if there were primal themed wallpapers and flooring that could be crafted from their drops. For example, the Akh Afah Aphitheatre arena is gorgeous and I would love if my room could look like that! Another idea would be to purchase various wallpapers and flooring from the Gold Saucer.

With more new jobs coming in the expansion, the loot tables for endgame raids are likely to become even more full than they are currently. At the Fan Fest, mention was made of a token system to help combat this issue. Can you give us any details on how this system will work?

When will the Art of Eorzea artbook be available for purchase in the SE store?

I've seen many Warriors complain about how endgame gear for "tanks" fits far better with the Paladin aesthetically than it does with Warrior. In future raids will all tanks (and by extension all healers) continue to use the same gearset, or will you be able to have different sets for each job to better match the aesthetic of each job?

You mentioned at Fan Fest that making larger raid tiers with more bosses would require extra dev time. Exactly how much extra time would be required for just an extra one or two bosses?

[Akamu_Aniketos]

Are you planning on re-vamping other classes the same way you did for war?

[Argonar]

During Chocobo Racings in Gold Saucer, we'll be able to controle our chocobo like a "Chocobo Circuit" game or it will be automatic?
