This suggestion comes from a place of wanting a way to transmog gear. Right now my character’s fashion sense is so subpar that people in Sacrament keep making comments on how curious my outfit is.
It would be cool if Mira and Meri had a reputation system where we can drop off gear we don’t want/won’t ever use, so that they can deconstruct it and basically learn to make gear better. That way I can carry over item stats to an item I like the looks of and maybe they can even improve it by like ~2-5% based on Mira and Meri’s research rep. It would also be cool if there was an option to recolor items so that they match better but also so I can distinguish myself from the enemies (as sometimes when my character gets thrown around by the enemy I lose track of who’s who)
