Water Pools

[Ath192]

Can we put some water pools in some prominent places in this game? With all the swim wear it has and the developers baking swimming in after stormblood it’s such a waste that all the water pools are completely out of the way.

There is historical precedent for this as well. Roman baths were often a big part of their cities so it’s strange no city has a structure resembling this.

I am a simple person. I just teleport to the beach.

Some places to try out:

1) Costa del Sol - lots of beaches, including the main Moonfire Faire beach properties. The Warrior job area also has a bonfire for small parties in that part of Bloodshore

2) The beaches of the Mist. Anyone can enjoy them, even if you don't have housing.

3) The beaches of Shirogane. Housing area, but the beaches are available to everyone. There is even a 'hidden' hot springs further up the beach

4) The Ruby Sea ... there are beaches nearly everywhere

5) The lakefront in Il Mheg is perfect for swimming, although the wildlife can be a bit daunting.

There are pools/ponds/baths if you know where to look - the Hermit's Hovel in Outer La Noscea for example has an open hot spring, and then there's the nearby Camp Bronzelake which is a literal mineral bath for recuperating Maelstrom troops. Kugane also has an onsen, and there are plenty of hotsprings found in nearby Shirogane as well (to say nothing of it's beach). Forgotten Springs in Southern Thanalan also has a natural spring for bathing, as are the various rivers and ponds in the Black Shroud.

And in the First, there is also a bathhouse in Lakeland north of Laxan Loft similar to Camp Bronzelake on the Source.

Soi there are definetely ponds, pools and springs around for bathing in, you just have to take notice of the map.

Even Ultima Thule has pools.

One of the mainfeatures in The Goblet is a fountain/swimming pool area in the middle - there are even NPCs in bathing suits hanging around.

Same goes for Ishgards housing district (which you can even enter without seeing any player housing if thats bothering you) - they have a swimming pool with sauna and even a little quest to tell you about it (the quest even warns you to put on swimwear for the cutscenes if you dont want your character to feel out of place).

If we count the housing areas as part of the cities both Ishgard and Ul'dah have some kind of bath (in addition to all those that have been mentioned before).

The Goblet has something similar to a pool. You can see also NPCs swimming.
