When we got Heavensward, players who had a completed relic from ARR could use it to "skip" one of the steps at the start of the Anima Weapon quest. It was a nice reward since it gave players this feeling that all the hard work in the previous weapon was still able to help a little bit with this new one in the expansion. Such thing however is not available with the current Anemos weapon/armor. Is this something that might be changed in the future steps?

Hi, I was wondering if the devs would consider making the Falcon Porter lannier available as a personal mount? As it is, the mount us currently restricted to only being rideable via the Falcon Porter in Othard.

If I could be so bold as to submit a second question, would the devs also consider allowing retainers to be customized with hairstyles that players have unlocked through the Mogstation or the Gold Saucer?

Thanks and fantastic job on patch 4.3? The new trial is one of my favorites to date!

The DRG job NPC Estinien was really important during the MSQ in Heavensward (due to obvious reasons) and it made DRG players resonate a bit more with the plot. When Stormblood came out some of us thought that the MNK job NPC Widargelt would be playing a significant role as well, however it never really came to be. Same thing happened with the NIN job NPC Oboro. Were there any plans to have them more involved at one point? Or are there any plans to do something smilar with other jobs in the future?

When you guys will do something against bots?

They degrade the player experiece, turn the connection to the servers slower and make S-E earn less money from the players.

Will you add jump potions for crafting/gathering? Returning or new players find it hard to level up crafting mainly due to needing to level other crafting/gathering classes in order to get items you need to craft and turn in for either leve quests or job quests. The games doesn't do a good job explaining that you need to level other crafting/gathering classes in order to continue... most feel locked into buying items they need off Marketboard due to it being faster to continue on the craft you want to work on then spending hours leveling another class you don't care about.

The current “original” character models in the game are a big aged in comparison to newer such as highlanders and auri. Are their any plans to update a bit?

Hello, thanks to taking the time to answer our questions!

Can we get more information on feast pvp teams, tournaments, and rewards?

Will there be incentives for casual teams to participate?

The feast weapons don’t seem rewarding enough to participate each season, is any chance more wolf collar rewards could be added?

Will we ever be able to go shoeless?

I adored the most recent story content in patch 4.3, especially the preview section towards the end! "Shadowhunter" looks very cool, and I look forwards to seeing more of him and his allies. I had a great time in the last instanced duty in the 4.3 MSQ, so I would love to know if there have been any considerations about the ability to replay old instances, the same way you can rewatch old cutscenes. There are several duties that I would love to revisit!

Additionally, are there any considerations about unlocking animations from different genders/races, such as the /changepose stances for various jobs? I would love to, as a female Roegadyn, throw my greatsword over my shoulder in a heroic pose!
