Then what happens if you get into a group with no crafters? No thank you keep crafting/gathering out of dungeons.

Traps and ballista combat for disciples of the hand.
Bow fishing for Fishermen and battle combat usage.
You misunderstand me somehow baby> what i mean to day is that the parties in the dungeon or duty finder could benefit from having additional hands, like Alchemist throwing or healing with potions or crafters with ballista creations and device making skills, please read deeply before you say something like that. But, you inspired me so thankyou.Quote:

This might seem harsh, but most of your ideas have already been mentioned in the past by the development team as to why they will not be introduced, and some are just common sense as to the potential problems they would cause if they were. As a start:
SE already tried introducing group content with Disciples of the Hand and Land with Diadem and.. that did not go down too well with the player community. Thus I doubt SE will bother with this experiment again (although to be honest your idea sounds like Hamlet Defense from 1.0... which has long since been scrapped).Quote:

Removing changeable belt appearance allowed more variety in body armour which we are already seeing in ARR. It's one of those situations where you can't have your cake and eat it too.Quote:

Uh, I'm not sure I understand what you asking for here - do you mean rewards for just doing battles? You already get lore tomes and stuff for running dungeons/trials which you can get more powerful gear for.Quote:

Reading is thus considered pretty much a requirement to play them (I remember it was a common complaint made against FFVII back when that was first released in 1997, that those unfamiliar with JRPGs at the time did not like having to read to play it). If you're expecting a game which is mindless button mashing and beating things up for no reason, then sadly you will be disappointed as this game will always be story-centric.Quote:

Of course improvements can always be made (and SE welcomes ideas), but a little reality check is needed here. -

I like the direction they are going right now.

Torches: The game is not very dark. Just raise your gamma if you are having issues (not sure if you can in case you are on PS)
DoL/DoH: If you were to refer to SEPARATED content that only these classes can access I say yes. Mixed doesn't work as some DoM/DoW will ALWAYS discriminate DoL/DoH as lazy etc. That being said, we have the game relying too much on DF already, let's not make it any worse. DoL/DoH are easy enough to lvl. I can't imagine any content for them that can't be done with Leves or quests.
As for "Less reading more action", I politely disagree. I would say "MORE READING (what your community wants) and then action based on that."
This game needs content that doesn't force people to group up all the time. Playing an MMO does not mean you get forced to be with people that you don't know, for a dungeon you don't like just to never see them again (as if you would want to anyway....)
