"Would Like to See"

Okay, i know many of the players will more or less hate this post mostly because
it somewhat related to another mmo-game out there, im no huge fan of that game but
it did have some awesome "Addons" & features.

Addons were mostly "User" creations in the first place so not an actual part of
the original game itself.

Call this an "Would like to see list" that me & my LS members put together.
Just posting this as "Suggestions", becasue we put this list together for fun.

note. Some ideas are based upon already announced upcoming features.

( Updated with "Blue" text as being confirmed for 2.0 release. )

◇ Florist - Gather Class. (Gather floral, Seeds, etc to Grow in flower pots wich yields items) Much like in FFXI. (So ya we could use Mooghouse for that, or storage facility)
◇ Treasure Hunter - Gatherer Class (Main Tool: Key & Offhand: Shovel.)
- Instead of using chocobo for digging, why not give a class a Shovel to dog for treasures, and maybe use key's to unlock chest (like FFXI treasure chests that spawns randomly in caves etc)
- Now, i used to be "THF" in FFXI & loved it so im no big fan of this last idea thou.

- Sorry for any typos.
¤ oh ya....im a huge FFXI fan since several years back.

Update / 2012.07.10: Updated & fixed a few things since it's one hell of an old thread of mine.

Think it would have been better for you to split all this up so that other people can add to it without clustering everything into one thread. They may end up just closing this one too.

hm good point, shame cuz it would one hell of a mess.
Oh well, my bad ; ;

[Rokien]

I would like to see those mog house company stuff.

[Raldo]

Edit: This was a necro-bump and I didn't notice

On-topic: Lots of good stuff in there I would like to see. I really don't want to see Treasure Hunter again though. You shouldn't be punished for not bringing a certain job to a fight, and I don't want THF to get the short end of the combat stick again because "we just want them for Treasure Hunter".

[Laughlyn]

holy crap....lol where you find this old dried up topic?

I totally agree with the "Treasure Hunter" thing, it was abit overrated in FFXI.
But i would like SE to somewhat reinvent it somehow, maybe overall boost the actuall droprate of things
just by having the Thief in the party. (Maybe even make it more clearly visible to the class)

Or give the thief the possiblity of Stealing real items, like in the older FF games.
Being able to steal a badass sword from Atma Weapon or something was so cool. (example.)

Maybe even give the thief the possibilty of disabling monster body parts. (more often than the usual way)

[Raldo]

Oh poop, I fell for the old necro-bump trick.

[Laughlyn]

Damn, rokien...you liked 1 thing?
A whole 1 thing? lol amazing

Oh poop, I fell for the old necro-bump trick.

Is cool, new players should bloody well read this thread. ^-^
