I've always wanted older Ultimate's to have the weapons from newer jobs retroactively added.
UWU/UCOB: Are missing, GNB, DNC, RPR, SGE, PCT, VPR, and as more jobs get added, it'll be missing more and more. I understand that these jobs aren't going to have Dreadwyrm equivalent weapon models, or ARR/HW Relic models to use as their base, but does that really matter? Use as close a model as would be appropriate, and slap the glow effect on them.
It's a small thing, but I think it incentivises revisiting those fights, even if you've already obtained all of the weapons for them already, and as each new expansion is released, it re-incentivises players to go grab the new ones. Same with TEA, and DSR.
And while on the topic of Ultimate rewards, something I've noticed FFXIV lacks, is glowing armour. It may be nice for us to exchange totems for glowing armour pieces as well as weapons? Perhaps it would look a little bit... Much, if your character is covered from head to toe in a garish set of golden glowing robes, but it would be nice to at least have that option. Again, retroactively adding this to older fights would give players another reason to do them again.
