Perhaps with the new effects being added to SMN, some more gear with Summoning skill on it before level 50. All there is right now is the earring I think.
More +enspell damage gear [lol] I'm honestly suprised SE didn't try to pawn that shit off on us with our AF.
MNKs should have black belt taken away if they want JSE.
Some low level capes with melee stats on them. Evasion+ is nothing compared to a Mist Silk cape, and a Nomad's mantle is put to shame by a black, white, or red cape, as far as effectiveness. Mages get alot more STAT'd gear early on than melee.
Harps that are worth a damn.
I agree with Jamal, some usefull melee pants before 70 would be nice. There aren't enough options out there.
Some more Elemental+ gear thats usable by non-BLMs. BLM can get upwards of +50 Enfeebling Skill, which is more than RDMs get on their gear, and the BLMs can buy it. So I think a little more Elemental skill on purchasable gear would be nice. I mean, I've only got Teir 3 nukes, so it's not like I am gonna be good competition or anything, but BLMs get Sleepga 2 and all the RDM specific debuffs from subbing it, so I'd like a little Elemental Skill gear to make up for it.
Perhaps a few more peices with "Refresh" on them that have usefull stats, like noble's tunic or yingyang robe, but for other jobs. BLM's get Demon cloak, but it's not their best option, by any means. [Just a pipe dream, but I've always felt RDM should get Auto-Refresh, since I am oozing so much MP that I can give it to others...]
Goggles should be added to the game, and have blindness resistance with some other mixed stats. I want some eyewear I can wear to a PT without being totally gimp.
