Sprout video of the week: 

This week it’s not a video but rather the website FFXIV Guild

This site is mostly about Class & Job guides.

You can simply choose what type of guide you want from the respective drop down menu.

Bought an apartment in the Mist ward in La Noscea.

I’m working on furnishing the apartment.

I want to go with a theme, the Riviera (red) items you can craft and put in a building is what I go with.

Working on Summoning Bell and Moogle if possible.

Hello Aprillian, Constraxx and Grand Nagus,


I was just listening to your latest podcast, and a huge congrats to Aprillian for 15 years of Control Alt Wow !!!!!!


I love listening to all three of you. Grand Nagus for his in-depth information about what's coming up in World of Warcraft, and his segments about Final Fantasy.  It always makes me want to play Final Fantasy but I just don't have the time for two MMO's! 


Constraxx is also a wealth of information, especially with his auction house stories, oh and a big congrats to you and Aprillian on getting that camel last week !!!!


And Aprillian, I had the pleasure of watching your latest Twitch stream while you were on VR in Derail Valley.  I have to admit I'm a bit of a railway nerd, as me and my hubby are both Train Controllers (I think you call it Train Despatchers in the USA).  


Anyway keep up the awesome work, and Happy Holidays to all three of you and your loved ones, and stay safe.

My question to you: Why don’t we have this feature, timewalking, permanently?

Make the dungeons' difficulty selection have an additional setting: Timewalking, or scaled, or whatever you want to call it. 

And do away with the minimum level 50 restriction. 

Let people level and gear in Timewalking too.

FFXIV can do it, why can’t WoW? Granted, the gear doesn’t scale in FFXIV, but there are other sources to get gear too.
