Ishgardian Restoration: What Happens When It's Done?

[BambooRocket]

So uh... this may be a dumb question, but what happens when all 16 stages are complete? Can we still turn things in for scrips to get the rewards? Because I'm starting to fear I'm not going to be able to earn my rewards because my server is heavily populated and fast, and suddenly the ability to turn things in will be gone. (No turn ins = no scrips = no chance to earn all of the cool stuff other people got to). There's also the fact some of the newer folks that joined when ShB dropped aren't even there yet. But I also don't know what turning in the collectibles would even contribute anymore if the project's complete. Can anyone shed some insight onto this?

I doubt turnins will go away even when the restauration is finished. just look at domain reconstruction, you can still turn stuff in there.

[Jennah]

It's "done" for now on a number of servers, including mine. There are no more upcoming concerted works (FATEs) scheduled; presumably the next will be in 5.2, or possibly 5.1.5.
You can still turn in stuff for the same number of scrips, and the same rewards are available.

Craft 10 a day and turn in you’ll have more than enough in time. Trouble is if everyone keeps that for the rewards then willl they add new ones for the next phases? I can’t see it being as popular if reatorring ishgard is the only incentive once you have all the rewards currently.

Isn't it going to end with the opening of a new housing area in Ishgard?
For me, it was just about getting all my crafter jobs up to 80 in a week, instead of the months it would have taken.
Now, it's going to be crafting more stuff for tokens to buy materia to fully equip them.

That is the assumed ending yes, thanks to the original pictures of the Firmament showing what appears to be broken housing plots and some camera breaks allowing people to look at the entire zone from above and realise there are enough of these 'plot-like' formations for it to be a housing ward.

[Riardon]

I'm pretty sure Ishgard housing will open at the end of the series of Reconstruction.
Most prolly it's still far off on patch 5.3, 5.4 or smth.

[Avidria]

Well, even if (hopefully when) the place turns into a housing ward, they could easily keep the turn-ins open on the basis that the rest of Ishgard still needs work... and they're gonna keep needing stuff in the long run. Or something.

[Fredco191]

I think we might get Ishgard housing once every data center completes it fully.

I've been a bit curious myself about this but for the servers that are done with the current stage, are you still able to do turn-ins?
