FC building airships has been mentioned quite a few months ago, iirc before even expansion stuff (new areas, beast tribes, jobs, ...) was ever mentioned.

However, we've not heard anything else after that.


I found this info online, about Patch 2.5 part B:

* FC Airship Building (??)
** FC DoH Workshop to be added.
** Players with a FC House will be able to set up this workshop within their basement. (MMORPG.com; 10/24/2014)
*** Classified as "large scale" content. (MMORPG.com; 08/23/2014)
*** Can build airships with FC.
*** Can build other "large" items with FC.
*** One of the first items you will be able to build with your FC will be the Aetherial Wheel. (MMORPG.com; 10/24/2014)
*** Process of building items will occur in a magically miniaturized machine, then magnify to it's full size once you bring it out into the field.
*** Will require lots of manpower and time to complete. (Secrets of Eorzea; 07/18/2014)
*** Boating and engine must be crafted. (Secrets of Eorzea; 07/18/2014)
*** Airship will have a captain, and other roles to steer the ship. (Secrets of Eorzea; 07/18/2014)
*** Airship experience will be different from flying around on map. (Secrets of Eorzea; 07/18/2014)
*** Some content will only be accessible by airships.
*** Airship content will be expanded upon with patches.

Is the FC airship crafting coming before expansion (2.5 part B) or only on expansion (3.0) or even after that (3.1+) ?

Any dev response with "Yes it's coming before Expansion" or "No it's not coming before" would be really appreciated.

Thank you!
