Are there any plans to make an (Extreme) Version of The Singularity Reactor, If not can you consider it?

[kari-chan]

Will you ever implement under-water exploration in the future?

[Yuki_Tokita]

Do you already have an idea for the next big expansion? Where do you think the story will lead us to in that expansion?

[Lathander81]

1. Because taking selfies(screenshots) beside them just isn't enough, can we expect to see the Warring Triad in action sometime soon? Those statues are too beautiful not to square off against later. I know, I'm a hopeless fanboy high on the nostalgia all over Ishgard, but I can dream!

[Kirhs]

Any plans to make better and more interesting side quests?

IE not always find the lost moogle or kill X amount of monsters.

Dark Knight damage mitigation

After levelling my Dark Knight to 50 and running low level and endgame content from ARR, I've noticed how I have more difficulty with mitigating damage on dark knight compared to paladin and warrior at level 50 at roughly the same item level (ilvl 125). I have also noticed similar issues with Dark Knights suffering from major damage spikes while performing in Heavensward content and even into Alexander, and although this is a new job, I still feel there is something else making the job feel rather squishy.

Is it possible to provide Dark Knight with some other means of damage mitigation other than through parry and evasion? I know those avoidance stats are supposed to be the focal points for dark knight tanking in addition to some self-healing, but parry/evasion tanks have been historically hard to balance as well as hard to heal, which is why I think I've been seeing this dilemma arise consistently throughout all content.

Is there an ETA for fixing the Directx11 crashes, as discussed in 164968-Consistent-Game-Crashing-Exception-code-0xc0000005 and 242433-dx11-crashing ?

edit: and also this thread 241177-DX11-Crashing

oh and please don't add a DPS meter or parsing for that matter, and if you do please do it only on/for Training Dummies, because i've seen it in WoW and it is really bad and will only be used for flaming others.
