Tavers/Social hang out, Armoury chest changes and end game armour with materia slots.

1.Armoury Chest

i think it would be a great feature to turn the armoury chest into a collectible chest for all unique gear. A box with the picture of the item and a tick down in one corner to say you've collected that unique item. collected sets of items such as all bards darklight armour could reward you with gil and tomes. single sets could reward you with gil and company seals.
i think this would encourage people to replay old dungeons in order to try and collect all the gear available as well and cause people to roll on drops. nowadays I'll be in a dungeon and about 1/3rd of the time the item will be passed on by every player. it would certainly encourage me to go back and do old dungeons in order to get all items ticked off and collected.

2. be allowed to Add Materia into end game Armour

This would enable people to personalise there stats and play their class in a more unique manor, it would also help the economy by preventing materia from being worth next to no gil (with a few exceptions) as it serves no current purpose for level 50 battle classes.

3. Taverns/social hangouts/card games

In the game its pretty hard to connect with people outside of joining an fc, and even when you have made friends theres few reasons to get your characters to meet up and do something aside from a dungeon.
I'm simply proposing interesting places where you can play card games with your friends, maybe theres drinks there that causes the stagger emote to randomly start, and a wolf pup you can actually interact with (stroke, throw a ball). perhaps a music hall where at certain times in an eorzean day different singer/acts will be on. bards could get up and play songs especially designed for listening with no stat buffs. where you can race little ladybugs and whoever wins gets the gil.
I feel theres a desperate need for social interaction in this game outside your own fc or even within it. And i hope something like this could be possible.

#3 is a major need. A lot of people in my company have quit playing all together because endgame is nothing but unforgiving boss battles and running the same dungeons over and over for tomes. I've been tome running since November and honestly the whole tome gathering has gotten really boring.

I agree with making more end game gear with materia slots.

Give Materia Slots to dungeon armor would be sweet yes... except for crafters, if they did implemented this feature it will only encourage people to never care about crafted armor (worse the trouble more than already it is) and while still need a crafter to attach materia to a certain armor piece, kills the porpouse of have crafters, if they did implement this next we we will have is people askin to remove crafter classes and just make an unique class called "Materia melder".

It do be neat if instead just attach materia to dungeon armor, you could upgrade it (and maybe modify its apearance) with physical attachments wich be crafted unlike materia (as materia can be transformed from any class), this way give a plus to crafters to sell attachments wich can be obtained and attached only by a crafter class.

This also would help to reutilize old weapons/armors if they did allowed us to dismantle old dungeon armor/weapons into parts and reutilize these parts as some kind of upgrade pieces for future armor/weapons of higuer level maybe this encouraging people to play old dungeons for such upgrades, the mayor diference betwen this and the concept of materia conversion be that this allow you to transform one weapon into something completelly diferent (maybe even with diferent functions than the base materials had).

The idea be just give a reason to crafters to exist rather than just have them there to materia melding.

I'd so love #3. Gimme some nice songs I can play in a looping animation.

I really love the tavern ideal. I think people would join up with friends alot more if they had a tavern hangout like that.
