Remembered a few more things, just quickly while I'm at work. I'll have a bigger post later.

1) Newer areas I am noticing has multiple "types" of mobs for people to rank on. An example is the Balator fields where there are like 5-10 different mobs that you can rank on. People like doing "murder orphan", it's bad enough in tediousness already. When you have to change a macro or type something new for each room to rank, people get bored real real fast. Give them a common name, makes it a lot easier - I know a lot of areas have this, just saying I've noticied it a few places.

2) Make sphere more important - really just feels useless besides empowerment. Never seen it have any use unless it's the famous luck stat or a similiar affect that we don't know about. Make effects more effective with certain spheres or less effective or more effective against, etc. That or just toss it - it only really deals with empowerment/tattoes from what we all see and that could just be handled in your role. A neat idea would let people pick their sphere by a quest, not just by the 11 warning. Another idea would let people NOT pick a sphere if they don't want to - if I pick Fire, I'd rather not be stuck with it forever if I wanted to talk to another Immortal and have to explain "why you don't fit what you picked 40 ranks ago".

3) Full looting - yes, it blows. Yes, it's fair and everyone can do it, etc. Getting full looted is becoming a popular thing and is very rare to get anything back these days - especially when it involves multiple people. Why not put lag on it, or they have to grab items individiually, or put a bad effect to some stat while looting, or require you to have your hands empty (how people full loot with 2 swords equipped is beyond me), or make a looting skill which different classes do better than others and have it effected by spells (a hasted thief is going to loot better than a slowed healer). If you're going to make it painful, make it painful by the correct classes and not by others. Also, looting while fighting? Come on, you should get an ANNIHILATE for turning around and grabbing stuff on the ground. This seriously should be looked into.

Alright, I'll post more later.

Despite the fact that my weapons and armor are in desperate need of repair, I blow the entire king's reward on Ale and Whores!
