SE, Please do somthing about the boring gear stats.. Please just read first...

[Marcux]

Seriously, more variety? Every piece of gear has basically a little more of the same stat from the last. You have nothing you work hard for gear wise.

Where are the gear stats? Make gear worth it, every other MMO has this?
+ Poison Resist
+ Elemental Resist
+ TP refresh bonus
+ Mp refresh bonus
+ Bonus to mp on sunny days?
1% of autoattack damage is converted to hp!

Seriously, do somthing, make a Little horizontal gear progression, people like to actually work for gear that isn't replaced in a day. I160 gear? gone in less than a day...

Yoship's reasoning is this would make some people or jobs desirable over others.

really? you can choose who you want in duty finder? Your going to kick someout out of party finder because they don't have tp bonus?
Sounds like an excuse.

What about those games that square are known for, almost all final fantasy's have some type of job combined ability's.. Skill chains, triple attacks.. be unique, give people a reason to chain ability's together. make being in a party fun..

after the 3.0 story, ffxiv feels like another repeat of endgame 2.0.. weekly kill, get vertical loot, wait a week... repeat. Give us a 100 floor randomly generated dungeon to explore.. somthing to do in the meantime. I believe you did that with a few other final fantasy games.

I know what people are going to say, If you don't like it, leave.. etc.. etc.. Yeah, I know. I get it. I don't want to leave, I just want them to make the game more enjoyable. Right now it feels like your on a boring vertical gear grind. Fates are terrible.. terrible..
Why can't we make Exp parties where we set up camp and pull monsters again? It feels like monster placement in the overworld is just there to slow you down from running to quest points. Can we give the mob placement an actual reason to be there, maybe XPing on them?
