Skill tree. Could it branch out?

I think everyone would gravitate towards the "best" build, so everyone would still be wearing and using the same stuff and materia would still be just as expensive.

The closest you're going to get for customization is the class system and even that is limited.

Don't get me wrong, I would love more customization. I loved the idea of specialized elemental mages from launch, it just never seems to pan out. Individuality is thrown to the wayside because people don't want options.

Well, in RO you have DEX based assassins, LUCK based assassins, pillar of fire mages, fighting priests, vs undead priests, etc

It was designed in such way that all the builds were pretty much even

That won't cut it. MMO's are about min maxing.
