Guildleves from Players for Players

[Junnichi]

My idea for SquareEnix about Guildleves from players to players:


In old FF14 (and probably new FF14) there are Guildleves for DoH and DoL classes where players have to gather or produce items.

My idea is some kind of place or NPC where players can create such Guildleves/Orders for other players. The player who creates such a guildleve has to pay a fee (a fixed one or one based on payment amount) for the system and can set a payment and optional some materials. He has to give the payment and materials to the NPC.
(e.g. "I need 5 chairs. I pay 2,500 Gil for crafting them and I'll give you 10x lumber for materials.")
Then the guildleve will be shown in a list for other players who want to do such guildleves. The player who has created it can't accept it himself. The guildleve will stay in that list until someone fulfills it or until a set period of time went by (maybe 3 earth days).

If a player wants to do such guildleve he/she has to use a warrant (not sure about English name) like with normal guildleves, too. Therefore he will get an exp bonus when fulfilling the guildleve which should be slightly higher than from normal Guildleves.
When he accepts the Guildleve it will vanish from the list and he has then a set time to fulfill the Guildleve - maybe 3 hours. If the creator has provided materials then they will be used while producing. Produced and gathered items will be taken by the system for the Guildleve. If he doesn't manage to fulfill the Guildleve in that time then it will be called a failure and go back into the list for other players until the time limit for that list is over.

When a player manages to fulfill the Guildleve then he will get the payment and the exp bonus. And the player who has created the Guildleve will get his wanted item(s) via Mogry post.

If no one fulfills the Guildleve after those 3 days then the creator will get payment and materials back via Mogry post. But the fee is lost.

As Guildleve creators have to pay a fee and those who want to fulfill it have to use their warrants but get exp and payment, this system would help everyone, but there wouldn't be a large risk for leveling-abuse. Fee and exp have to be adjusted well of course.

What do other players think about that idea?

I remember i posted this idea way back in early 2012, but it seems my post disappear :P

Yeah it was posted way back then, a few people I met ingame also came up with this idea themselves while they were doing leves. It's a cool idea.

I believe I remember Yoshi-P commenting on how Free-companies could put out requests on boards similar to what the OP is saying.

[Seraphe]

yes, please!

I like the idea too and that there is a time limit between each being able to cast a new warrant. The time limit will help prevent abuse of this system for exp. I also think they should make it so we would need to actually go to the caster of to warrant and press a complete the leve button or something if they are logged in or send it to them via moogle if they are logged off to make it like any other delivery mission. It would also be fun if he was in a lvl 50 and I needed to go into a bit of an adventure in order to find him.
