Great system to add to XIV that was in XI, Trial of the Magian Weapons and Armor

I think this would be an awesome system to add to XIV that is currently in XI. The atma weapons are similar though, this system allowed you to customize the weapon how you wanted and by your playstyle, those who played XI will know what I'm talking about, but if ya don't heres a link.

Here's an example of trials for just one of the weapons of many.

You're a little late. :p And I'll reiterate what I said there:

I never want to camp NMs again.

DON'T LET SQUARE HEAR HIM! Someone lock this person up!

OHDEARGAWDNO. THE FIRE WEATHER TRIALS.

Square's already said something about the Zodiac weapons eventually being personally customizable, I think?

This is why the OP's suggestion is a bad idea:

Being at the mercy of a sadistic moogle is not my idea of fun.

Trial of the Magians was f'ing awful.

How about a trail where you need to get 1 lalafell to part with his/her gil.

Why don't people realize a similar system is already in place?!
Our relic weapons are already working on this exact principle, especially now with the trial books in place.

I don't think people are missing out on that, exactly. In fact, I think that's the main reason a lot of people are upset with atma and animus. Doing tons of stuff for a negligible reward is painful and brings back harsh memories.
