Kinda sad the patch will be delayed, but I guess it's inevitable since they're also working on 2.0.

I didn't see this in the patch notes, but will we be able to decorate our residences?

Not til we get our own personal housing.

[MyKotoShi]

Fuck, yes!

This is the news every player has been drooling for since XIV released.

Shut the fuck up already haters~

Wish there was more detail on: Implementation of level 30-50 job quests for (add in job). Now I could be wrong or I could be right but dose this mean when we unlock the new jobs that we will be down leveled to lvl 30 and have to level back up to 50?

Im not saying being down leveled to 30 is a bad thing but its the fact that having to level back to 50 (after doing it once) would make the game even more tedious. Now 1 thing that bothers me is if they do down level us to level 30 and than having to quest all the way to 50 is not my idea of fun. As with most if quests SE gives they tend to be long and boring with lots of running here there and everywhere. Depending on how this is done it will either be fun or again annoying.

they've been saying for months you can unlock the jobs at level 30 but your class level is your job level

The way I understand it is that you won't access all the abilities of the Job if your Class is level 30.

At 30 you will be able to unlock the Job and maybe some abilities. Then from 30 to 50 you will be able to unlock other abilities and at 50 your Artefact gear and maybe most powerful ability.

That's how I understand it.

If you unlock Paladin and your Gladiator is 30, the Paladin would be 30, too. If your Gladiator is 45 your Paladin would be 45.
But you don't learn the Job skills with exp and level ups, but with quests.
First quest with level 30 (to unlock the job) then all 5 levels 1 quest.

Special supply & provisioning ops -NEW-
Addition of unique and untradable item categories

Big U/U equip farming for company seals coming with 1.21 ^^

I would like to say to all those people calling me out when I predicted March release, "Why do you whiteknight so hard?"

Not til we get our own personal housing.

yep im thinking the same, this are in my op. temporary until we get our houses

I'm not so sure it is temporary, actually. Remember, 'our houses' will be on company estates - spaces owned by the free companies.

As such, my money is on the Private Room system being for characters that aren't in a company with an Estate. It seems to me a pretty nice solution too, so I hope I'm right.

I'm pretty confident that by 2.0 / the release of the full housing system, private rooms will be decorable and perhaps be able to grant any bonuses you can get from different furnishings and so forth. Meanwhile, free companies that go to the effort of having an estate will give their members access to the gardens, basements, and customisable exteriors that Yoshida mentioned along with everything they permit (like say, chocobo rearing), as well as the indoor stuff private room-users get access to.

In 1.22 or one of the following they are adding more recipes. Possibly furnishings could be among these, but agreed that's probably wishful thinking on my part. I won't expect player made furnishings with 1.21 though.
