4th list of suggestions

[Con_Carne]

(First, sorry if my english is bad). Hello again, I'm here with a forth list of suggestions. (Here my another lists: "1", "2", "3")

1. "New" Lalafell hairstyle: For Lalafells, include a shorter hair (like the default Midlander Hyur's).

2. The Unending Journey: There are some cutscenes that are not included there. Why? (also, include the "Duty Failed" cutscenes like "The Steps of Faith" and "The Limitless Blue" ones).

3. Allagan Tomestones of Poetics: For many Heavensward players, Poetics has become obsolete. Maybe a way to exchange them for Tomestones of Law?


4. Wind-up Aymeric: Instead of making a minion of him, include him in the Wind-up Leader minion (obviously, when you allow players to join in the Ishgard's Grand Company).


5. Artifact Gear iL 210: This is the most unfair thing. Remember 2.5 (or previous patches)? For example: in 2.5, the highest iL gear was 130. How to obtain it? Well, there were two types of iL130 gear:

1. First type: Play the Final Coil of Bahamut and obtain it from there.

2. But... what happens with those players who aren't so good? The second type: obtain Poetics, buy the iL120 gear, obtain Carbontwine or Carboncoat, and exchange it for iL130.

It has been always like this, a maximum gear to obtain buying it (the easy way), and the maximum gear to obtain via Raids (the hard way).

What now? There are another two iL210 gear types, but both requires Gordian Manifesto (so, Alexander Savage...). Why? The expert ones play Alexander Savage to obtain the Gordian Manifesto gear, but why the non-so expert players have to play it too to obtain the Repaired Artifact gear? Please, make another way to obtain the iL210 Repaired Artifact gear, like you did in the previous patches.

6. Not another floating place...: Okay, you did the Sea of Clouds, the Churning Mists and Azys Lla. But please, don't do another place like those again. I find them boring, "incomplete" (few land... I mean ISLANDS and many sky... You have to fly or you won't do much there... The only thing you do there is... fly, no one walks).

7. Camera mode: Similar to the Lightning Returns one. To take better screenshots, with the possibility to delete our character from the screen in that mode.

...Again, sorry if my english is bad... maybe there's something wrong...

In regards to the iLv 210 Gordian Gear upgrades. You must not have heard that the upgrade materials will be dropped in the NEW Void Ark 24 man Raid coming out in 3.1 in the first 10 days of November. They have always made it faster to get the highest level gear through running the toughest content in the game and that is never going to change. YOu are in luck though it is coming just about 6 weeks away. If not doing savage that item level of gear is not needed for any content anyway so all you are really missing is the ability to dye the gear a different color.

Mmm... I didn't heard that. It's good, but it doesn't change anything. You still need to do a raid to obtain those Artifact item upgrades (at least is an easier raid I think, 24-player raid (Crystal Tower) are easier than 8-player's (Bahamut Coils).). What I ask is a (harder) way to obtain the upgrade item, like hunts did in 2.x: Hunts "gives" an Unstained Mark Log, which you can exchange in Mor Dhona for the upgrade item, without doing a raid.

And yes, I'm not doing Savage (especially because people won't let me enter there. Coils, Savages and Extremes are forbidden places for newbies/noobs. If I'm lucky, they'll kick me without insulting). But I want to have the maximum iL possible (like i did in 2.5... WITHOUT DOING BAHAMUT COILS!), and yes, for dyeing gear.

1) Well, they're always adding new hairstyles in content patches so this at least would be very likely in the future. So, keep watching the skies I guess?
2) Although I agree that it's disappointing a lot of great cutscenes are missing from the Unending Journey, I suspect the reason why is similar to why the player's inventory cannot be expanded beyond 100 slots, and that is for database reasons. Presumedly the database that handles the Unending Journey cutscenes probably was programmed to be limited in scope in order to save development time, but unfortunately that means it prevents or restricts the amount of new cutscenes that can be implemented. Hopefully like the inventory space issue which SE have said they're working on increasing, the Unending Journey will get it's missing cutscenes for players to enjoy as well.
3) Well, given that since ARR's launch there has been a cycle of earlier equipment currency being phased out as obsolete, and eventually completely removed, to be replaced by a new currency, sometime after 3.1 I see Tomestones of Poetics going this way too.
4) I disagree! Hauchy needs his own minion! And Ishgard will never have a Grand Company, as they have no physical need for one (the other nations formed the Grand Companies in response to Dalamud's summoning in order to pool their resources and to make it easier to call on sellswords and adventurers to fill manpower gaps, as they all lacked professional armies, unlike Ishgard, whose society is militaristic and has a full time standing army already).
5) Really, is it that important to be fussing over 'BiS' slot gear - I fully admit I'm a casual character and I have interest at all in needing to keep up with the highest ilevel gear, as crafted gear is sufficient to get past story quests and dungeons. Isn't this whole thing just more a case of "I want what they have?"
6) Uh, this is a Final Fantasy game - floating islands are practically a FF trope. Besides, players actually asked for floating lands like Tu'lia (aka 'Sky') from FFXI, so SE delivered (also bear in mind the central theme of Heavensward is flight so having floating lands to fly through makes perfect sense.).

Hopefully that didn't appear too nasty or patronizing.

In regards to the gear, its always the patch after the gear is introduced that the upgrade items are opened up to non-raid content (like when the items were introduced in CT quest). This is whats most likely happing in 3.1 and is like all previous gear upgrade item implementation in this game.
