    The unwillingness to crack down on Fight Club strats is a major contributor to the current in-game housing crisis. The developers should decimate the value of Salvaged Accessories in order to make the 'Fight Club' strat unprofitable.

    Current Summoner, whilst a big improvement on pre-Endwalker Summoner, is still arguably too simple. I should not be able to play the job to a Savage level within an hour on a striking dummy.

    To extrapolate on the above, I would like to see an Oracle-esque job added to the game that focuses on a DoT playstyle, perhaps with abilities that scale in potency based on the number of personal DoT effects applied onto an enemy.

    The current patch cadence could be improved by adding a 'pre-farm' inspired by the Bozja Memories step to the relic weapon series, in the .05, .1, and .15 patches. You could have the base relic be an upgraded version of our free Capstone weapon.

    The currently available Glamour Plate limit is still too low, and should ideally be increased to at least 25, if not 30.

    The developers should consider a 'loadout' system for glamour plates with an initial limit of, say, 50 plates. This allows for more creative flexibility when it comes to glamour, and could even incentivise cash shop purchases of things like outfits and dyes.

    Am I doing it right?
    We might have disagreed about BLM and jobs in general, but... damn, you're on point here. I gave you a like cause I agree with pretty much everything you posted here. Espeically the Savage lockout stuff, I always thought that was stupid and arbitrary. It was partly the reason I fell off raiding, not being incentivized to help my friends clear. It sucks to spend all that time trying to help and you get literally nothing out of it, other than good feelings bout helping folks.

    MrHappy has long said that Glamour system is a ticking time bomb, and the timer gets shorter by the patch. The fact that you can't even have one plate for at least every battle job is straight unacceptable. Never mind if you're like me and want like, 5 different looks for your main. I like to be a goth mage, and a technomage, and a maid-mage, and a classic pointy hat mage.... and that's not even including the damn DOH/DOL.

    I also reaaaaally like the idea of a prefarm, and the first relic step being an upgrade of the previous capstone. I mean, it would at least be SOMETHING to do, other than turn in tomestones for poverty relics.

    Can you explain "Fight Club" strat though? I'm not familiar with that term. I'm assuming it has something to do with gobbling up houses, like the entire ward in Gilgamesh that's clearly owned by two people.
