    Question about the 2.0 zones in Endwalker

    Considering the trailer recently has this been addressed? Are the 2.0 areas going to have copies of these zones, but more like chaotic battlefields?

    Or is the 2.0 areas going to have new extensions like a new La Noscea zone?

    I was curious how Yoshi. P is going to go about this considering the threat level.

    Trailer suggested the 2.0 zones are going to hell in a handbasket, I was wondering if there is going to be a major change to reflect that?

    Probably not, at least, nothing substantial, and what there is will almost definetely be instanced. As the existing zones have to remain as they are for new players just joining (this is why the Foundation of Ishgard has remained in ruins permenantly and was completely ignored by the Reconstruction effort - it needs to be so for the benefit of players just arrived that from their perspective have just arrived after the Horde ransacked the place).

    Basically, never trust a trailer, they usually stylized at the very least.

    I highly doubt they went through the trouble of adding flying to the zones in 5.3 if they were planning on substnatially changing anything in those zones in 6.0. So don't expect a Cataclysm style shakeup. Or even much content in them.

    It'll more likely be that lore wise bad stuff is happening but the grand companies etc hold their ground while we're off stopping the end of the world. Kind of like in WoW how Legion was a big world invasion but you didn't really see changes to old world zones and the focus was on the new zones and putting an end to said invasion.

    ^This. It's pretty telling all you see in the trailer is the Eorzea Map on fire, with the only actual areas shown being devestated - as an entirelly new zone in Thavnair, and... the Floating City of Nym, which is a ruin in a far off part of the La Noscea map anyway and thus could easily be instanced as battle content (And Garlemald, which we've never even been to and only seen brief snippets of during the game so they can afford to obliterate it and replace it with Zenos's crazy tower of evil anyway).

    I'm pretty confident to say that those hoping or expecting something like the 'Seventh Umbral Era' events in FFXIV 1.0 in EW... will most likely end up disappointed.

    If the event from the trailer happens it will either be in a new area that resembles La Noscea, in an instance like how it was done when Rhalgr's Reach was on fire, or just some phasing that only you can see.

    This seems most likely to me.

    In a way they've already done with adding the towers after a certain point in the MSQ. If anything I agree with you it will be solo duties, just like in HW when we went through Halatali too. For Nym, well we already have a map they could use in the Leap of Faith map.
