What are you hopeful for in 3.2?

As the title says. The thinks that you hope we could get realistically, be it obvious or as a surprise.

1. New Grand Company Items/Ranks/Content

Basic request, no hint that it will happen but I can hope right?

2. The New Tome gear being based off of Role rather then Job.

I have only so many slots and generally glam everything to look like one set of items.

3. A change to tank's damage and arggo mechanics.

The way I would do it is during an attack the STR is used to calculate damage and VIT to calculate arggo. That way if you need to dps/OT you can use STR, and if you are strait tanking you can use VIT.

4. Well thought through re-balancing of the Paladin.

Using my idea above further I think what PLD could use is an overhaul of Sword Oath. Compared to the DPS stances of the other tanks it is a complete joke and only adds to the uselessness of the class. Maybe split the difference between the other stances and just give us a base 10% boost to damage and 10% reduction to mitigation. Better then the useless extra 50 auto-attack damage.

I would also be down for a "Cleric Stance" like "Guardian Stance" that swaps STR and VIT. And to be kind to the other tanks, make it a cross-class skill a la CS so the other tanks can use it too.

That is more of a list thread as to what we know is coming. This is more of a speculation/wishlist thread.

I'm sort of the opposite....need all my jobs to have different styles; sometimes even sharing one piece of prominent gear makes me upset.
But I think you're right; this was AF2 so it was supposed to be per job but I bet the next tome gear will be per type.

Actual content

A high challenge, high reward alternative for gathering relic weapon items, since doing 6+ month old chores again for a weapon that is better than SCH a4s weapon after I've already downed a4s 2 months ago (kick in the teeth much?), but will be outdated in a month isn't making me want to log in to do any of it.

Materia slots in raid gear is nice. I'm sick of wearing my ilvl150 melded jewelry for accuracy in savage (or even in experts). Somehow, I think they'll throw a wrench into my hopes again if diadem healer gear never having accuracy, and fixed relic weapon stats was any indication. Would be nice to not miss when I actually feel like doing damage, you know...

I wish for new unique dungeon progresion style, as of now current 3 bosses and stright line to finish is so boring, that frankly i completely dont care how graphicaly the new dungeons will be dressed or whateva ground aoe dodge circle bosses will have. Bosses need indungeon mechanics to defeet them like one in snowcloack with snowballs. any dungeon above lvl50 is borefest in terms of structural design.

I'm hopeful for:

• crafted gear to be meaningful again (they've told us the gear will be better but their definition of better is sometimes only marginally so);
• for a number of jobs to receive improvements (primarily PLD, BRD, MCH, and AST);
• for NINs to receive a moderate buff to their AoE damage capabilities, making them closer to DRG in strength (as the utility of Trick Attack is far less valuable in 4-man dungeons);
• for the new Primal battle to be meaningful in the longterm, not just as a "weapon catch up" mechanism;
• and for Lost City HM to be as awesomely atmospheric as the original version was.

I hope the Alexander story starts to become interesting.

For the Sharlayan pathmaker helm to be dyable and glamourable to tanks so my PLD can look awesome.

Hey, I can dream right?

I hope that the red scrip system becomes a little bit more lenient (because as it is right now drives me insane and is just discouraging), and I hope they make crafters more relevant in general again.

And, as I've been hoping since forever, I hope we get some kind of ballgown glamour set. >_>
