Is it possible to add a 'dance' performance mode for Dancer with jete and other dance moves?

[Sancho_Nyanta]

Are you considering to add more customization options for hair/face for the Hrothgar in the future? I say hair/face because they seem to be linked and as a result, there are only 2 hair options per face.

Please give Scholar Energy drain back. The current playstyle of SCH i feel that I am forced to overheal just to spend aetherflow stacks so I can get the 10%mp refresh it's a waste to not use them and just refresh and seems pretty pointless. Are there any plans to change this at all?

Energy Drain doesnt function that way anymore. it does a little bit of damage and refils a summoners aetherflow

Are there any plans on improving housing or adding how players are able to obtain houses?

I would like to also give my deepest thanks and congratulations to the FFXIV team on this amazing expansion launch!

Can we look into getting the Crystal Towers first 2 levels adjusted in item level to be closer to what they where back in there prime?
The alliance roulette is not balanced in challenge. The crystal tower is not the same difficulty as the others in its first 2 levels.

Soken-sama has outdone himself on the Shadowbringers main theme! It is an amazing track. But will there be a track with the voice of Susan Calloway perhaps singing about Hydaelyn’s perspective given the new information in the MSQ? I love her voice and I want to know what Hydaelyn has to say given what Emet-Selch told us about the sundering and how Hydaelyn and Zodiark came to be.

Question about Glamour Storage:

So the current way that the glamour chest works is you are limited to 400 items stored with various other information like if they item was previously glamoured or dyed. Wouldn't it make more sense to just store the item number and if its presently there or not which could be a 1 or a 0 in the entry. With this you could store a tone more items and maybe even make it work similar to the WoW transmogrify library where the appearance of every item could be stored. With this you would still be able to take items out like you can now and would be limited to just 1. With this you would not need to expand the retainer inventory or player inventory for quite a while as 95% of inventory space is taken up by weapons, armor, and accessories. This would also eliminate the need for the armoire in the inn rooms and free up player memory.

Glamour for retainers of the opposite sex?


Having a retainer of the opposite gender from my char means that they can't use gender-locked gear my char has, neither can I buy such gear for equipping it to them. Can there be a way to glamour gender specific gear to my retainers of the opposite sex, and also to buy opposite gender gear to those purposes?

Is there plans to give SCH an Aetherflow dump again that isn't a heal? (Hint: Energy Drain 4.0)

What updates can you give us on additional Hairstyles/visible hats for Viera and Hrothgar?

[JasikOdinson]

Would you ever implement an in-game DPS meter?
