Thread: Ask Questions for Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XXXVII! (Exploring Patch 4.0)

Are you really serious with the ability Crutch? Can we have a non-wasted slot ability please?

Will it be possible to be able to craft by having the materials stored on your retainers as opposed to needing to have them in your own inventory?

At some point not long ago a comment about Ishgard housing coming after the zone warms up was made. Was this a hint that the zone might change at some point in the coming story, or a round about way of saying Ishgard housing will never happen?

Hello!! So this is a question of housing, and server/worlds. When the housing is released (hopefully in 4.1 as it was stated earlier this year), there will be the people camping for server maintenance to end. As soon as it is up, there are going to be massive log ins, and an extremely large number of people rushing to Shirogane or logging into Shirogane. (not to mention that every person I have spoken to has stated they are after a medium or a large, because they desire more room to decorate)... It is going to be a madhouse. What is going to be done to protect the servers and the worlds from crashing, due to this high number of people all hitting one spot?

Do you plan on making que timers for solo instances that works in a similar manner as DF/RF in the future so what happened in Early Access doesn't happen again?

Will we be receiving a healer class in the future or nother tank class to balance things?

For Omega Savage, will the weekly system work the same way as Alexander Savage and Bahamut, or have you made some new adjustments to it?

We all know Paladin needed some love going into 4.0. However, PLD now has the best physical mitigation, self mitigation, group mitigation, physical dps, magical dps, burst dps, self healing, and the best array of defensive cooldowns. If not for the Limit Break Bar penalty for running two Paladins most all groups would be planning on double PLD for Savage content. If Limit Break isn't necessary (like A12S ultimate) you may see it. During the last 2 years we were told you were not going to introduce a new tank so you could "focus on balancing" the existing ones. According to the current, "balance", this was a complete failure. How do you plan to truly balance the tanks over the next few months, when it appears it was unable to be done in the last two years? WAR feels clunky, DRK has significantly lower dps than both other tanks. How will this be adjusted?

Are there plans to provide an option for continuous playback of cutscenes on the Endless Journey?
