Ask Questions for Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XXIII!

With airships being new content going forward, many free companies now desire a workshop, especially those who have been created or have became active with the new expansion.

Unfortunately, this is not feasible for many guilds due to a workshop requiring a free company house with no land available on a multitude of servers, how will you address the lack of available housing plots?

Will the devs ever put persistent facial expressions on characters.
For Example: my characater could have a /annoyed look on her face without having to spam the /annoyed emote button, or have the /alert emote facial expression look stay on your face until you type /alert again or /straight face? Or keep a /straightface while in combat stance?
I've been asking myself this questions ever since patch 2.4, but didn't care enough. haha

Are there any plans in the future to perhaps add more songs to the Bard Job? Would be nice to see something similar to songs implemented in Final Fantasy XI such as "Knights Minne", "Valor Minuet" or "Army's Paeon". I believe songs such as these that increase atk, def or HP regen of the party members would add more appeal to the Bards support role to a group. I would really like to see this.

1. Will you guys be adding new faces, make up, eyebrows, and facial hair (and clan specific faces respectively available) to each race? (For example, Sea Wolf faces available with Hellsguard faces and vice versa.)
2. Will you implement a persistent emote/action for Roegadyn to carry smaller characters onto his or her shoulder? (I've always wanted to carry two Lalafellin on my shoulders.)
3. Will you guys rework some animations for each race, and perhaps add some new ones?
4. I remember hearing something somewhere on here about 'personal limit breaks' separate from the party limit break?

This brings up an interesting question: When will Lalafell get a Roegadyn mount?

Will there be the addition of more floors of Alexander in the future? At the current time, we have 4 floors and they seem to be only a certain part of Alexander raid.

Will there be any attemps at fixing the EXP-Gain from completing weekly Challenge Log Entries?
They used to be a percentage of your currently needed EXP to Level up, but now they are fixed to the EXP you need from Level 50 to 51.
Seeing that you need 864.000 EXP from 50 to 51 and 3.888.000 from 59 to 60 (thats more then 4-times as much) the EXP gain from Challenge Logs is currently not really worth the effort in the later Levels.

On the same note the EXP Gain from Battlecraft-Levequests and Fates hardly compare to what is needed to Level up, and the new 10-Leve-Levequests are useless if you are not farming for the Encased Vilekin (wich is useless by itself).
You said that the reward for completing them would be better wich they currently aren't.

Do you think the tome bonus message displayed for first time completion of a duty is being abused by the community?

In North America, it is common for players who have already cleared content to create 'no law bonus' parties and intentionally not help others. I think a feature which was designed to encourage players to help others is having an inverse effect, making it more difficult for people who are otherwise capable from finding a party.

Should the tome bonus message be removed?

Will we be seeing the children of the Au Ra, Lalafel, and Roegadyn soon?

And will there be more interracial offspring like Hilda?
Edit: What races can have interracial offspring other than Elezen/hyur?

[Shadow1xd]

What can we expect from the new relic weapon and how will it affect players who are/have worked on the old one?
