NPCs moving to Ishgard...

[EdwinLi]

So what do you think the moving of NPCs like Cid into Ishgard would involve?

Considering the Airship workshop is in Ishgard not surprise there since we saw it in the new trailer released not long ago and they did mention may be a lot more NPCs we know may move to Ishgard as well.

However, a interesting thing they mentioned is that Rowena (and maybe her tomestone operation) may move to Ishgard as well due to her monopoly expanding in 3.0 even more.

If they do move it will probably be mentioned at the end of 2.55 (which would give a good reason to make us complete the 2.xx storyline before being able to go into Ishgard). And what I mean is that they will end on a "Well we need to get ready to move into Ishgard as that is where the major threat is." kinda note.

I also think Rowena will pick up shop and move into ishgard. I mean it's GOING to be the new "hub" there's no way it won't be.

i dont know if rowena will cause unlike the npcs from waking sands rowena isnt instanced for everyone, so if they moved her ppl w/p expansion couldnt see her! Unless they made 2 of her! CLONES!

Wait.....

I kind of hope (honestly) they do away with Rowena and her slave labor force...I really dislike them...all female all ending in -na what gives Rowena? Her Better Business Bureau rating must be abysmal!

'F' for customer service (I mean I'm TRYING to save the world, and you want to charge me?!)
'F' for employee diversity (All female, all names ending in '-na'; she takes the cake on this)
'F' for product awareness (Come on, why wont you let me get more than one piece of armor a week?!)

I'm honestly more interested that Yoshi mentioned Cid moving to Ishgard, seeing as he's all but literally glued to Mor Dhona by a supposedly optional side quest chain. Maybe it's not going to be as unimportant as we thought? I can dream.

(Before people who have already done that quest chain rage about gating, there's no way they can make you do a story twice.)

Are you talking about the Crystal Tower sidequest? Because even if he moves, he could still come back to check on the progress of what's going on in St Coinach's. He doesn't have to be there constantly.

This sort of news along with some upcoming major change on the order of the end of 1.0 makes me wonder, is something going to happen to Revenant's Toll? They've spent a lot of time building it up, patch by patch. What's to say they won't knock it down? I doubt they would obliterate it completely, but perhaps it will end up less a safe haven than it's been up until now.

Considering the Scions have just been hit by the Ascians and that we have a traitor in the Crystal Brave, I won't be surprised if the Scion operations may be moved to Ishgard as a temporary hideout due to events of 2.55 or that the Scions go MIA due to the events of 2.55 and the WoL is forced to hide in Ishgard through a good part of 3.0 until the other Scions are found.
