Personal Gathering Points
Wanted to provide you all a quick update regarding gathering when it comes to FFXIV: ARR.
In A Realm Reborn once you have exhausted your current gathering target, that location will disappear and a different point will appear elsewhere. Since gathering points are specific to each adventurer, you won't have to worry about another player gathering from the same point, as was the case in version 1.0.
I have mixed feelings about this but after taking mining and fishing to 50 on my own it was annoying to get to a point and have it disappear but it was also nice to "fight" for them; so I really don't know.

I have a small update regarding retainer levels to share with you.
Based on the feedback we collected in the past, the dev. team is looking to implement different features for your retainer as they level up. For example, we are looking into allowing retainers to perform chores, such as gathering.
As soon as we receive detailed information on leveling up your friendly caretakers and the tasks that they will be able to perform at certain levels, we will be sure to let you know!

Taking from SWTOR, interesting and if done right I think it will be a nice feature :)
