1: Raid Loot Token System
2: Tempest Spine Style Raids
3. Paladin's Mounts for Explorer Zones
4: Guild Housing
5: More Mid-lvl Quests
6: Familiers
7: Natural Armor Bonus items to drop in regular loot table
8: Class Base Epic Quests Chains(Non-Favor and can only do them solo req 12 lvls in class) for Class base Item... I.E. Paladin's: +5 Holy Avenger, Rogue's: Master Gloves, +15 Disable Device, +15 open lock +6 Dex........The quest chains would be highly difficult to complete.
9: Prestige Classes
10: Lvl 1-4 Raid: A group of 12 adventures go in search of Kargon to reclaim their tastey hams after Kargon claimed them for himself.

after monk and druid.

1)slings
2)prestige classes
3)crafting(PnP, not MMO crafting)
4)Animal companions(if we dont get these with Druids)
5)better RAID docents

ill add more later


Regarding torches, devs said they wont do it, since light sources are a premium and they wont deal with adding movable sources.

[Ashet]

1. Prestige Classes
2. Gnomes
3. Monks/Druids
4. Housing
5. Crafting

[Vinos]

1. Crafting(good crafting not some boring grind that will get you inferior items)
2. I would like for Turbine to add more content instead of altering old content
3. New races
4. New classes
5. A few non instanced outdoor areas(Not a PvP area)
6. Put in 2 raid bosses in future raids(would make the final fight more interesting)
7. Token raid loot system
8. A lower level TS-type raid
9. A High level TS-type raid
10. Work still stinks

[Shadow_Flayer]

1. More Tempest-style raids.
2. A few incredibly challenging quests that can not be three manned (and not due to switches, levers, etc -- due to overwhelming odds against you).
3. Varying warforged body sizes/types
4. Proper PnP attack progression (+10/+5/+0, not +10/+15/+20).
5. Monks
6. More content at all levels
7. Gnomes
8. Sharn
9. Druids
10. Even more content

Having played and beta tested a few other MMOs either recently out or coming out, I believe DDO still has the best combat system hands down. There just isn't enough content, or other distractions, to keep people interested. Blow us away with things to do, and the population will grow.

[Valzoric]

1.) Monks/Druids
2.) Prestige classes
3.) Double maces
4.) Pole Arms
5.) The ability for wizards to create scrolls
6.) Gods/Deities (Specifically for clerics)
7.) Slings
8.) Bags of holding
9.) Trade Skills (Armor smithing, Weapon making, Jewelry crafting, etc.)
10.) More Races (Half Orc's, GNOMES!!!!!!, etc.)

OK i like to see the little kids using a sling instead of rocks to take down them giants. However i want to see no raid docents at all

Lots of people are mentioning PnP magic item crafting. These rules require 8 hours of crafting per 1000 gp of the item's value. Even brewing a single potion takes a full day.

Are you proposing requiring your character to sit at a crafting table for several days?

I wouldn't mind leaving my wizard sitting in the crafting shop for a few days, as long as I could play my other characters at the same time.

Would work for me. Is just about how it works in PnP. Your crafter works for a few days on something while the rest of your party (could be represented by your other characters) go off and get into trouble or another adventure.

Maybe X hours not being able to log in with that character for every 1K gold of the item. I could go for that.

Actually there have been several suggestions for how this could work. One was that items took an Incubation Period before they became ready and during that time no other items could be crafted. This period was days in length based on cost of the item (though probably not as heavy as PnP). During this time the character could adventure but could not make any other Items.

1. More traps that are deadlier, sneakier, more interesting, and that make you laugh when you see them in action.
2. Quests that are like Tempest Spine that when completed can affect the playing of all others. Example would be that in a zone that has said quest once completed successfully people maybe get a bonus to hit for a period of time, and if they lose take a minus to hit. Better example, when the Reaver fails people take explosion damage throughout the zones due to the bomb going off, while if they pass maybe Giants throughout the mission have a chance of being stunned due to the mind effect being deflected from them.
3. Guild Halls with a guild sharing banking system so we can park items that someone could use instead of storing them on our toons.
4. Add a couple shops to Gianthold such as Potions, Reagants, and weapons/armor repair.
5. Add another zone similar to Gianthold that deals with a brand new story line. Gianthold was done pretty good IMO.
6. Create a 6 player and a 12 player Quest of the Elite that can be for all group ranges that basically gives credit to the group that does it in the best time, disarms the mosts traps, etc etc and then these teams are posted somewhere so that everyone can see who the best are. By adding more than one type of winner then it wont be just a zerg contest.
7. Add more spells to wands thought it may exist I have not seen a wand of jump. Maybe add them for sale somewhere too.
8. Add one more level of heal potion cure serious is not enough, and if I missed where they sell a cure critical tell me where it is.
9. Add cursed items into the game, that would always make things interesting.
10. Make rogues a necessity in some instances.

[n10cd1]

1. Artificer
2. Druid
3. Monk
4. Gnome
5. Chain weapons (Flail) and Reach weapons (Halberd/Longspear)
6. True trips mechanics (would be needed for above two weapon sets)
7. Grappling
8. WEAPON SIZES!
9. Crafting
10. Friendly Fire

- All of the above are core rules (Artificer being an Eberron core (there are awesome races in Eberron besides the warforged that are ignored as well)).

Why are there no weapon sizes? That is a main drawback of small races (only halflings atm). They get +1 TH and +1 AC, but they should be using less damaging weapons. Also Enlarged weapons and weapons from Ogres/Giants loot should randomly be larger and harder to wield.

- And a word about friendly fire - One of the fun things of PnP DnD is being cautious, slow, and tactical. Being worried about the placement of a fireball or getting an arrow in the back would slow the game down from a click-fest and being more fun. People would think about combat more tactically and enjoy the combat more. This would have to be on a 'new rules' server by itself though. (this would affect monster atacks as well - so it would be tough writing the AI).

Best suggestion so far

10. Friendly Fire

Second Best

[hannika]

1. crafting pnp style
2. monks/druids
3. familiars
4. harder raids, not due to puzzles, due to the **** load of damage they deal back
5. quivers (that will actually help not take up all of my inventory)
6. token raid system
7. a decent raid range item (not a crossbow :|)
8. prestige classes
9. more high lvl content
10. stop changing existing content, add new content

[Gandalfs_Ghost]

1. Guild member list with toons grouped/listed by player (so you can tell whos on and whos on alts)
2. Guild grouping - like a raid group but with a higher limit, like say 30, for meetings and such, not questing.
3. Yeah, more tempest spine style raids would be nice.
4. Yet more weapon sets.
5. Underwater combat/encounters
6. More teleport locations (or a more customizable system similar to the actual spell)

All I got atm w/o repeating what others have said (more than I have already)
