Wishful Thinking stuff

[Jaelithe]

Can you imagine Dancers being the spectacle of performances, and BRD's using their instruments to make the music come to life with their dances?

UGGGHHH I NEEEEEED THISSSSSSSS IN MY LIIIIIIIIIFFFFFFFFEEEEEEEEEEEEEE PLEEEEEEEAAAAAASSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

That's my dream <3

I want actual, legit minigames/stuff to do along the lines of fishing..but...better implemented.

Something like chess, checkers. A multi person target shooting gallery. “Arcade” games (imagine a super simple fighting game), or games like space invaders. Multiplayer “chocobo dungeon crawl”. Hell, even a kind of “tactics” game vs others would be fun.

Point being, things I can derp around with my friends that are fun but don’t rely on levels, mechanics or “skill” at the core game. Something I could enjoy spending time with my friends who have different interests than I do in game.

I’ve a friend who does endgame raids, so we barely actually see each other in game outside of treasure hunting, would be fun to goof around for an hour or so before his raid meetup instead of staring off into space at the market board.

My wife is also super casual, but we all enjoy doing stuff as a FC..but...as is it kinda turns into “hey let’s play a different game entirely” like Minecraft or Animal Crossing. Problem there is not everyone in the FC has access to those games.

I guess you never played Star Wars Galaxies where this was a reality. Dancers had all kinds of different moves that you could put together with macros or control manually to make unique dances. Musicians had different instruments and flourishes to build musical pieces. Both had special visual effects like lighting and movement. Both jobs could sync up with bands and dance troupes playing together so everyone was in sync to do performances. Yeah, that MMO was ahead of its time in many ways.

• Phantom Dart as a PVE Role skill. I love the rainbow icon and think it would have some utility in dungeons and raids.
• The option to not have the cooldown show up on Macros. I use skill icons forms of macros, inc gearset ones and seeing them dulled out because they aren't in the "proper" Job or are pvp icons is an annoyance
• A Chartreuse dye. I want to use that Highlighter yellow color on other gear besides the Melee MNK gear, y'know
• 5 More Glamour plates for jobs
• i110/100 PVP gear for SB and beyond Jobs, and/or unlocking the existingones for all Jobs in their role (so that I can use the Swan one for SCH and the Hawk one for SAM)
• Lost allagan weapons for SHB and beyond jobs
• Some of the runner ups from the various gear design contests. Particularly that asymmetric one that the devs commented would fit RDM.
• Dyable gear thatismsolty back and has the dye be the accent colors.

You would be correct! I'd heard about it from friends, but since SW isn't really my thing, I didn't play it (let alone most SW games as they released over the years lol).

There were some really damn cool Rogue-ish gears in those contests that I would still love to see adapted into the game.

• Dyable gear that is mostly black and has the dye be the accent colors.

There are a couple of things like that already, but more would be nice.

The two I can think of right now are both from the Ghost Barque sets: the caster top (a recolour of the Wind Silk Coatee with a black shirt and dyeable shoulders/cape) and the tank pants (chainmail skirt with black leggings and dyeable highlights).

Kinda want like a "Limited job" version of brd and dnc where youre like pure/true support and got to find, learn, and perform songs and dances that do various buffs and debuffs for party.

My wish is that Bards could actually sing in battle again like they did with Requiem or the main songs before 4.0. Some actual support songs with cast times and mp costs that aren’t just ‘press me every 30 seconds then forget about me’.

As for a dancer performance emote, couldn’t they quite easily slap one together with the animations from steps or improvisations? It definitely seems possible in future, unlike my own wish. I imagine there’s a good chance we’ll see something like this, even if it may not be until a bit further down the late. I’m sure your wish will be granted at some point.

Last wishful thought but healers doing healing/support in battle instead of DPS. Please don’t burn me alive for saying that

I'd be happy to see all of what you suggested but really would want the last one.
