Thread: Ask Questions for Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XIX! (Patch 2.5 Preview)

3) Duty Finder vs. Party Configuration

Currently, changing party configuration, regardless of whether you join a party (which frequently happens to get credit for a Hunt mob A class or S class), or when summoning your chocobo, causes you to leave your Duty Finder. As stated above, this could mean that an hour of wait time or more is forfeited by a player. Would it be possible to remove this restriction, such as have a chocobo companion out at the same time as being enrolled in duty finder or join a party while still searching in duty finder? (understood: a player would have to disband the party before accepting the Duty Finder, but at the least their wait time would not have been forfeited)

4) Glamour: 3-Slot Armors

Mention was given in previous dev interview: that the especially Herklaedi (Odin's Body armor), but then by default the Snowman outfit, and Chocobo outfit might be adjusted so that they are useable with the glamour system. Is development still being given as to how to add this item in the glamour system on an outfit that does not match the 3-slot configuration?

5) Multiple Glamours for one Item

With the introduction of the Forager's Crafting and Gathering Gear, and also with the sharing of gear between WAR and PLD or with the sharing of gear between MNK and NIN or else SMN with BLM or else WHM with SCH, many glamour combinations are not feasible. It is not feasible to have 8 different foragers crafting pieces, especially all melded out, just to have proper Disciple of the Hand glamours. It is not even possible to have multiple pieces for Disciples of War or Disciples of Magic which share equipment pieces for glamour purposes. Has any thought been given to the option of having one item with different glamours depending on the job/class, or else gear set, it is equipped upon? i.e. Would it be possible to glamour the gear set plus item, not just the item itself?

6) Dyeing i90 Gear

Will the Hero's Gear (i90 Disciple of War and Disciple of Magic) Armors be made dyeable at any point?

----------

7) Expansion of Armory Chest

With the introduction of more jobs, the space has become very limited in the Armory Chest for equipments, especially if a player with all of the classes leveled has multiple gear sets (for example, a PvE set and a PvP set of gear. for example, a main tank set and an off-tank set. ) Are there any plans to increase the size of the Armory Chest? Has the option of a "Tackle Box" for Fisherman been considered?

---------

8) Odin and Behemoth Desynth

Currently, the items obtained with Behemoth Horns and Odin Mantles can not be stored or sold and are not effective (have been greatly surpassed) in terms of effectiveness. Have any plans been considered to make the Odin Items or Behemoth Items desynthable? If so, have any plans been considered with special crafted Odin or Behemoth Items (similar to the Garuda/Titan/Ifrit crafted equipments)?

----------

9) Black Chocobo

Direct mention of Black (flying) chocobo has been mentioned "coming soon". Can any information be provided on whether this mount will be a mount added to our Mount List or will be it a special-occasion-use-only mount. Also, does "Black Chocobo" refer to the 'color' of the chocobo or the 'breed' of chocobo? (is black the only color the flying chocobo will be?)

11) Preview of Linked Items

Has any thought been given into being able to add a preview ("Try On") option to the text log, to Try On items linked into the chat log?
