First-Annual "Why is This STILL Not a Thing"

[Keydah]

Should - Logging out via player owned beds to earn the Rested EXP. bonus

You earn rested exp while in any sanctuary, online or offline, so logging out via player owned beds is just to log out via player owned beds. It would still be nice, ofc.

Yeah, I read about that after I made that post. If anything it would make having a room actually worth it.

The funny thing is, that this was how the rested XP was implemented back in 1.x, with the introduction of Inn Rooms. It started off with building up Rested XP when you would have your character log out, by going back to the Inn room and sleeping in the bed. When you logged out of the game by sleeping in the bed, you would get a little animation of your character crawling onto the bed and falling asleep. When you would log back in again, you’d get a little animation of you getting out of bed with big smile on your face. (For instance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJCYingQty4)

During the development of 1.0, they expanded on that idea by giving you “nightmares” related to the story (for instance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07Tom0m6vSU). Next to that, they also added the chance of getting items if you checked underneath the bed when you logged back in. This is where the famous expression “Heck the bed” came from.

However, players mentioned on the forums that it was quite the hassle to go back to the Inn room and log out, just to build up Rested XP. Due to this, they enabled the means to generate Rested XP by standing in the major cities. This got expanded on in 2.x, where you would get Rested XP in camps as well.

This was all before the Housing system was introduced.

That's a pretty awesome little side event, too bad they removed it just because some people thought it was "inconvenient". Maybe we should request they bring it back for houses/rooms/apartments.

To OP, if you got the time, might be worth listing all the ideas on your first post. (Edit.) Be easier for devs to read all. :3

I have posted a couple of lists of the most popular ideas as we go along. But I suppose one last one won't be so bad.

[Joven]

Since the thread seems to be dying down I guess I'll post one final list of the most popular ideas:

Glamour Log

Being able to toggle FATE music on/off or different FATE music

Selectable mount music

Bait/tackle box

Ability to change audio devices in game

More character customization options

Gear with unique stats/abilities

Better combat macros

Improved netcode

More actions while mounted

More overworld content such as rare mob hunts, repeatable large team events, puzzles, etc

Account wide content sharing

Being able to craft from retainer's inventory

A way to avoid obtaining repeat unique gear

All currency in the proper window/higher currency caps

Back buttons in NPC menus

Better/more storage options

Higher companion ranks/more to do with companions

Stackable everything

Well, I think that's about it. I want to thank everyone for all their great ideas and I hope at some point the devs take the time to look through here and possibly implement some of these in the future

Different Glamours for the same piece of equipment that changes automatically based on which job is equipped.

I want my healers and my mages to all look different but all the BIS is the same.

[Fatch38]

better substats (and more clear with %)

more variety in gearing (more than 2 set sets worth it would be appreciated) + being able to gear more than one role at a time

FC content (FC have almost no purpose outside of chat + buffs)
