You are not one of us.
They're adding some in-game stuff to the real-money shop to commemorate FanFest.

There's a new 32-seater bike:

Just like the FF7 bike, it has the first stage of increased movement speed. Also, I really like where the second seat is.

A new emote that has you do the classic three-point-landing:

Three new versions of the Cheer emote, which are the same animations but with green, violet and white colors:

And finally, they're adding Orchestrion Rolls for Eorzean Symphony 3 and PULSE: FFXIV Remix.

There's also going to be a sale for the Moonfire Faire stuff, so heads up for that if you care.

I don't see that one ever happening because you'd have to switch jobs in a very limited time window which is already a hassle when you do that manually while you're waiting, making it a required part of queueing would just result in more dropped instances.

How so? It would be the same as now, just switch to the job the matchmaking tells you to. Or if they are worried about that they could make it an option you have to specifically enable in duty finder settings.

I still wonder if the non-English communities were as caught up about the Heart of Sabik as us. Because I feel like the main thing facilitating that whole mystery was that for several expansions, we didn't even know on a base level what the Heart of Sabik is, and it took so long for someone to say 'it's auracite' that we weren't ready to just leave it at that (not to mention the fact I think a lot of people missed the Werlyt story saying it).

...but in every other language it was always called 'Black Auracite Sabik'. They knew what it was from the jump, and had a whole lot less reason to question all of it.

It'd have to be called Physician or Chemist since we already have a craft job called Alchemist. But yeah, I'd love something like that, just collect monster parts and Mix them.

They've tried to do Chemist twice, and haven't been able to make it work. The first attempt became Machinist, the second attempt became Sage.

Which on one hand, means that we're unlikely to see them take a third attempt at it...

But on the other hand, it's the only 'referenced but not playable' job in the game that we know they've actually got interest in adding!

I'm glad that Alpha doesn't get replaced by another player in the sidecar, the player just has to hold onto the sidecar for their life instead.

I would do terrible things for tied-back male hair other than the manbun+shaved sides style that it feels like is on 85% of player Highlanders.

My real wish is that every long and loose hairstyle would have a corresponding tied-back version.

I don't know how well it'd work plausibly, but I do like the idea of a Chemist job basically having a combat version of the crafting system, where you lay down self-buffs to increase the power of the next major attack (or heal if it's a healer).

It might come out like a more centralized version of MCH's Automaton Queen meter, maybe with some notes taken from SAM's Meditate to allow for the Chemist to really make use of phase transitions.

speaking of Queen, I hope they don't just bolt more damage onto that button again. they should give MCH an AoE use for battery gauge though. maybe just a 30s cooldown that consumes some of the gauge to throw an EMP grenade or something

Yeah I've wanted this for a while now, battery is useless in dungeons except for bosses, simply because of how much time the Queen takes to retarget.

Have the queen turn into a wearable kamen rider suit for your lvl 100 burst phase. Yes I know that's basically Reaper's gimmick and I don't care.
