Long ago I thought about the fact that I would love to see quests that allow us to boost the elemental limits of each frame and head by 1 for each element. Maybe limiting the quest to 1 per Vana'diel week would be alright.

Also, in regards to frames, they need to make a way to gain a Repeating Crossbow outside of crafting. Make it in a BCNM or ISNM or something so it doesn't necessarily step on the toes of people who still want to craft it, but I've seen a few new PUPs trying to get that item for the Sharpshot frame but can't find a crafter for it.

Oh how right you are! I would already have Sharpshot on Korponi if it weren't for the need for the repeating crossbow. I'm actually really contemplating levelling the 88 ww, 59 sm, and 46 bc needed for the crap. I have the ingredients for it, but a crafter is nearly impossible to find.

I haven't given it any thought as to weaponskills for Flyingblade model.
Here's some attempts at weaponskills:
Knife Juggle
Maneuver: Wind
Hits: 3
Damage type: Slashing
Effect: Low damage ratio per hit, kind of useless unless all three strikes hit, or any strike is critical.

Detangling Spin
Maneuver: Thunder
Hits: 2
Damage Type: Slashing
Effect: High chance of critical with each hit. Low damage ratio otherwise, as Knife Juggle.

Poisoned Darts
Maneuver: Water
Hits: 3
Damage Type: Piercing
Effect: Poison effect doing 1, 2, or 3 damage/tick, depending on how many hits succeed in one use of the weaponskill. If reused while the poison is in effect, the new poison effect cannot overwrite the old one.

what about a version two of the frames/heads and additional heads for the valoredge and sharpshot going up in level increments of 10 like stormwaker heads did

I always thought that it'd be nice if they came up with a new head for all four bodies, at level 60, 70, 80, and 90, but had them interchangable which order to get them, as long as the ones up to 50 were done.

[Awezomeos]

The only reasonably body i can think of is a Valoredge frame II with two-handed like weapon Great axe.
Middle low delay, high damage, powerfull Weaponskill, good thunder and fire capacity.

Also some MNK style frame for Harlequin head would be sweets.

dont need any more frames IMO but better attachments and maybe a few more slots for attachments. OH, and make the current broken attachments work.

There's always a need for more content. New frames, new attachments, new new new. It's what keeps the game new and interesting. In these cases, it's things for PUP to keep PUP new and interesting. Saying there's no need for something, is more true to say that YOU are fine with no more of that content, but it doesn't make you less interested if they make new content in that category if you like PUP atall.

random thought, make an Onion Knight frame BraveFencer-X88~~ >.>;;
