    [Suggestion] Guild Marks, Class Specific Gear and Guildleve/Dungeon rewards

    Guildleves

    To combat the issue of players receiving guild marks they don't want, SE should make battleleves reward guild marks based on the class a player completes the leve as.

    Example:-
    I pick up a battleleve and it says on completion I will gain 2000 gild marks, if I choose to complete this leve as an Archer I am awarded 2000 archer guild marks, if I choose to complete it as a Conjurer I am awarded 2000 Conjurer guild marks.

    This way players can choose the guild mark reward they want.

    Dungeon rewards

    Dungeons should provide guild marks when a boss is killed, guild marks should be awarded based on the class a player kills the monster as.

    Class Specfic Gear & Artifact Gear

    By exchanging your class guild marks to the respective guild NPC you are able to buy new untradable class specific gear (possibly AF gear), make the items fairly expense so players have something to work towards.

    DoL and DoH can also buy class specific gear in the same manner, although an alternative way in which they gain guildmarks would need to be addressed, such as rank 20 and above guild tasks awarding guild marks.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Edit:- Further thinking about this I think that it would stop loot wars happening and ninja looting also occuring.

    Everyone could participate in raids and dungeons and walk away with something even if its some extra guildmarks to later spend on new gear and weapons.

    There would be no need for end game DKP points because the guildmarks are basically taking the place of them, you turn up you do your think and you go away with your guildmarks, everyones happy.

    Would like to hear feedback on these suggestions.

    Thanks for posting yours ideas Jinko!

    I love and totally share what you're saying.
    I would prefer buying the runic pieces for 100000 guild marks than waiting them to drop <_<"

    I hope this will make his way to Ysohida san's Ears =)

    I fully support dungeon bosses, rewards from said bosses, and guildmarks being used to buy special class specific gear. Guildmarks are a form of currency after all, so it only makes sense that we are able to exchange them for more than just training in one or two extra skills (side-note on that matter, I think some of the skills are still missing for other classes, like steal for pugilist).

    Also im definitely up for anything that encourages more teamwork and dungeon exploration.

    I would like to see the GuildMark Leves issued from the various Guilds instead of the "General Adventurer Counter". Keep the general EXP/GIL Leves at the General Counter but have the Archers Guild assign "Guild Marks Leves", Maurader from Marauder Guild, etc.

    I agree they should enhance what you can "buy" with the Guild Marks, esp. Class Specific Gear.

    I like the idea of Raids/Dungeons granting Guild Marks also.

    I am an Archer and that is what I plan to be most of the time, so anything that enhances rewards for my chosen Class (for anyone's chosen class), I am in favor of.

    I like where this idea is going. They should definitely place more emphasis on individual guilds, and this is one good way to do that.

    That's a pretty neat idea, it would certainly make Gridania and Limsa more popular.

    That and give us a better reason to visit the various guilds more often.

    I love this idea. Being able to buy untradeable class-specific gear with guildmarks sounds great, and I like the idea of guilds being more useful places to visit! Random rare drops can be nice sometimes I guess but a more slow 'n steady progression towards a gear-goal would be welcome.

    I'd imagine this would really help stave off potential drama too, and make grouping up with people you don't know really well be less risky. Of course it makes sense to want to group with people you trust and who also play well, but there are a lot of players that I know play well but that I don't know well enough to trust with big things, y'know? xD
