I've never understood why the most iconic item in the final fantasy franchise, isn't used in either of the 2 MMO games.

I understand people say there are balance issues, but I'm positive there are ways around this. Rarity of the item, difficulty of the craft which causes expense economically, cool-down timers upon usage( just like we see with deadilus wings in ffxi), and more other factors that can play in to help it settle with the balance of the game.

I just feel this is one item that makes final fantasy unique, not because of it's usage, but because of the ever lasting name and the impression it has left in final fantasy history. PLEASE BRING BACK PHOENIX DOWN!
