Ask Questions for Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XX! (Heavensward)

Are there any plans to allow players to use the Duty Finder with a companion out in 3.0?

[Vespar]

With the expansion, many players will be returning. I fear the servers may become unstable or crash due to the load. As it stands now, on weekends and free login weekends, many players are dropped from the server at random due to the load. Will we see new servers or a free server transfer happen to alleviate worlds with high populations?

A long time ago you guys promised that we would get an add on API for user created addons. Can we expect to see the add on API in Heavensward?

[Vespar]

Will we start the new jobs from level 1? I've heard conflicting reports on this in various interview's with Yoshi-P.
I would love to start from level 1 and enjoy the new job from the very beginning.

[Vespar]

With the expansion, will the 2.0 world get some upgrades? Such as extra aethryte crystals in certain places. (ie. Whitebrim, Hyrstmill, etc)

[Vespar]

What will happen to our gear's item levels?
Will it be adjusted, or will the new gear just continue on past the current item levels?

[Vespar]

Will you ease the materia melding process, so newer players can catch up on stat requirements especially for crafting and gathering?

[Telvorei]

It has been mentioned before that Summoner will receive Leviathan and Ramuh Egi's in the expansion. Any word if a Shiva Egi will be available during this expansion as well? Or will we have to wait until 60+ to receive Shiva?

Desynthesis questions (surprising from me, I know):

Will we be seeing any wearable gear (as opposed to food/potions) with the "Careful Desynthesis" stat in 3.x? The possibility was mentioned a while back.

Will we still be able to have three desynthesis classes at the maximum level in 3.x, or will we have to pick two? For instance, if the max desynthesis skill level raises to 150 but the maximum combined cap only raises to 400, we would only be able to have two skills maxed, rather than the three we can currently have.

Are there any plans to make it easier to switch between desynthesis classes on a single character? Currently, we have the ability to instantly wipe all of our progress in one class, but we can't get it back if we do so except by leveling it from scratch again.

And lastly, in 3.x, will there be items only obtainable by desynthesis that are required for endgame crafting, but only available to a couple desynth classes? That happened in 2.x with Mastercraft Demimateria, and it would be a real shame if we had to reset one of our maxed desynth classes just to be able to access a 3.x version of the item.

Can you show us what the new Summoner Egis will look like?
