Add rare mats and recipes.

Not saying to do it by next patch but something in the future. A few examples of what I mean. In ffxi you could get the scorpion claw from a bcnm (boss) and then craft it into the GG tank armor. Or in 1.0 uhad NMs that dropped rare mats for crafts. This would take crafting and the economy to a whole nother level.

/like!

I think it's a good idea and from what i've understood, Yoshi and the team wants crafting to be important so it might happen.

Yeah in 1.0 getting a dodore Doublet for crafters was awesome you had to make a group to kill the mob that would only pop at certain weathers and hope he would drop the skin to craft it.

I was very disappointed that my dodore doublet was nerfed right out of the gates in 2.0 as I had HOPED to at least get a bit of use out of it instead of selling my 2,000,000g body piece for 20k (10% of original value if corrected for currency re-valuation)... Oh well. The crafting AF looks better anyway

Anyway, I'm sure that we can look forward to something like this in the future. They did say that they were going to be putting out new recipes in the near future, perhaps something like this will be among them!

This thread made me think of the Dodore Doublet myself. I saw sombody on the street in Ul'dah wearing one just yesterday.

Something like that would be awsome. Would be nice with something "tough" to get - a goal to work towards to get a small advantage.

I'd have to agree. I'd be happy even if the end reward was a rare vanity piece without any clear advantage as long as there are some more opportunities to build upon the current crafting system and add some more variety to the game. It's be cool to utilize such things with furniture and the distant housing patch too. I mean, making a "shell" table out of a rare Cancer fate drop or something would be interesting/fun.

^ Crafted couch that will apparently require Garuda's Feather (rare drop from hardmode Garuda).

Ifrit, Titan, ADS, etc have similar rare drops.

Sorry, I should of clarified. Certainly looking forward to the primal drop additions, but hoping for a lot more to be added to the crafting system as a whole.

Yeah I mentioned the dodore Doublet bcus it once was a million gil piece and now it's like 10k. Things like this can produce for the guild bank or let's say coil statics who need a central gil bank to be able to buy foods for runs. Just some ideas. Everyone's ideas would be appreciated.
