    Give us the ability to set up camp in the wide open areas far away from cities

    The idea of being able to use a Tent item to make an instanced tent where you could go inside and take a break without having to worry about monsters attacking you has always sound attractive to me.

    What do you people think?

    This would be awesoe! The idea really reminds me breath of fire serie ^^

    Also, since this game is bringing the propoosal of a more realistic world, would be awesome the camping working like Baldur's Gate one.

    - At every 3~4 days you must sleep. If you don't your character may become so tired he would crash.
    - You cannot sleep at cities outside Inns. If you do you might end jailed or, at least, cheased by local patrols until you leave the city.
    - You can set camp outside. It often would work as well as sleeping in an Inn. But if you're camping outside a city some things can happen (rare):
    a) your camp being attacked by wild beasts
    b) your camp being attacked by robbers, which would end in missing items/gil when you wake up. Of course no armor/weapon would be stolen...only common loot. This would also give you the option of tracking the robbers in order to recover the items.
    c) your camp being attacked by slavers, factions and similar stuff, where you guys would need to fight for life and, if you lose, you would be taken prisioner/slave. This would be a nice way to unlock certain areas like hideouts, way of joining factions, many quests regarding escaping or rescuing players.

    I believe adding a camp system would be very interesting for the game! ^^

    Well I certainly like it o.o

    At the very least, were that too complex, you might simply go the Mabinogi route and add a campfire ability lets players set a fire they can sit around and heal faster and get enhanced food effects at .. but indeed a tent would be all the moreso.

    I quite like that idea. I'd love to set up camp out in Coerthas to just craft for a while!

    Also, we can point multiple campfire scattered around all over eorzea...we could just have an interaction option to set camp when we get close of a campfire.

    That would be good, but then everyone would be crowded in the same areas. How about being able to camp nearly anywhere for a cost, while you can camp for free (or reduced cost) by the campfires?

    Mmmm maybe if the camp starts n instance then there wouldnt be an issue.

    Party leader interacts with camp, party members get the icon on top indicating there is an action to be performed like a teleport and done! everyone is in an instance.

    I actually think this is a smart and creative idea. I'm uncomfortable with the thought regarding being completely invulnerable though. There should be some disadvantage, such as Lienn mentioned.
