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

With 4.0, we now have a number of classes that feature their weapon in distinct parts:

The rapier and crystal for Red Mage;
The katana and scabbard for Samurai;
The Globe and Deck for Astrologian;
The paired knives for Ninja;
The paired caestus for Monk;
The gun and pack for Machinist;
And the bow and quiver for Bard.

What I was wondering, since all these classes have an off-hand slot that is not being used, is if there was a feasible way to use the offhand slot to alter the appearance of the offhand piece of equipment used for these classes, like how Thancred pulls out that broadsword and dagger combo back in 3.X. Being able to use asymmetric glamours like that would be really cool!

Any chance we will see a major changes happen to the content we gets every patch or it's going to be the same as the last 4years !!!.

PLEASE make it so 4 Star cards are unlimited in Triple Triad.

Are there any plans to expand audio support in Stormblood? Right now players can't switch their PC audio output from headsets to speakers, for example, without quitting and re-launching the game, and we often get ugly DirectX errors and crashes if we unplug our headsets/microphones while the game is running. Robust audio support is something FFXIV could really use!

Any plans for making a patch for the endgame players only because it's been 4 years and we still have 1 content consider as an endgame content (savage) and we are getting it every 6-7 months plz make sure to support the people who plays your game

I don't have a summoner to 70 yet, but I noticed Bahamut always following their summoners and from my understanding, it looks rather difficult for them to see mechanics happening, especially if it's an extreme trial or savage raid. Can we have an option to place bahamut in a specific location like we do for regular pets or at least change bahamut's transparency a bit?

Specifically for Dark knight and Warrior, why didn't they allow for weapon changes i.e., have DRK use scythe and you can switch it to a DPS job and Warrior use dual hand axes as a DPS job? They could keep them as tanks with their designated weapons but they were/are a DPS job also.

I understand the adjustments that have to be made but what about adding cross job skillchains and magic bursts like as in FFXI? They were an integral part of the game and allowed for communication between jobs.

It's a bit early to ask, but do you plan on making the Foxy Lady fate boss part of a party instance (like a dungeon, trial, raid, or maybe a deep dungeon) similar to Odin and Proto Ultima?
