I have ranted and raved about it for a year almost. DOL is 'THE' red headed step child of this game as far as content and updates go. Which is sad because of all the things XIV got wrong, gathering is really fun, which is rarity in MMOs. They need to implement some party fishing content, there is a thread here with ideas for such things.

The whole SPing at higher grades was something that should not have gone on as long as it did, especially with Botany and Miners being left out of having something similar. What should have been done was adding in G6 nodes for all and just giving them temporary items from all previous grades. Then when it came time they could just swap the item trees out.
