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

[MsKirsten]

SUPPORT JOBS

Will there be a leaning towards FF11 battle system with more flexibility on party setup that includes support jobs like Bard/Corsair for the expansion? Is that why these new jobs won't have a base class?

Also will you introduce a 4th new job atlater patch like Ninja was?

Can we get heavensward patch notes out early like a month before it releases?

[Aoxaviar]

I am currently working on getting my Chocobo to lvl 20 (hopefully) before the 3.0 release.

With 3.0 being heavy on flying and flying mounts, what is the plan moving forward for our existing Chocobo companions. I know Yoshi-P has mentioned they will be used in game and so far all we are hearing about is new mounts that fly and allow us to soar over the areas coming in Heavensward.

Please give us some information on how we will utilize our existing companions in Heavensward and if they will be seeing any extensions to the existing skill tree or new skill trees added.

Personally I would like to see the attacker separated into Melee and Ranged attacker so our Chocobo can act like a 2nd player when we run the open map.

I don't remember if this was answered or mentioned in the PAX 2015, but what are the current restrictions for using flying mounts in Heavensward?

[Airget]

At this point in time would it be possible to give us an idea of how much it will cost to build 1 airship for the FC?

Will the cost of airships increase the more you have or will they all be the same price?

Will the personal airships have the same kind of utility as FC airships and will there be anything unique/different when using a FC airship and a personal airship?

Will a fresh 60 DOH be capable of building an airship with the gear from 2.5 or will we have to obtain the new gear in order to build the parts of the airships?

Are you able to give us an idea of how FC crafting will work, how many people it will involve and how "success" is achieved through the process?

[Dererk]

Will we need to level every craft to 50 if we want to repair the new level 60 gear?

[ToppeHatte]

Is there any chance we'll be able to use the sword from the Hildibrand quests as a flying mount? When Hildy blasted off in the finale my VERY FIRST reaction was "I WANT TO DO THAT."

[ToppeHatte]

I think it's a common assumption that a lot of players will want to experience Ishgard using one of the three new jobs. How long do you think it'd take to get a "fresh" drk/mch/ast to be content-ready?

[ToppeHatte]

Will Heavensward on Steam be packaged as DLC or an all-new game?

[papichulo123]

Will heavensward introduce new stances? Change pose please?
