Id be fine with the intermittant ability to do these things the OP said.  Its not pay2win as it simply makes it so that you dont have to check in so much.  None of it is gamebreaking, its just convenience.  Making research and/or speeding of training IS P2W. 

I would also like Reylges to learn what the "edit" button is for.

The attraction of NPCs is a completely gamechanging thing as far as im concerned.  Ive completely set up my alt to react to the current situation to get the best NPCs and such a spell would change the game so much.

Ive done the "treasure chest" suggestion before in the guise of superpowerful NPCs that drop rare loot.  Something like where there would be only one of the special NPC groups on the entire map at a time...leading to people searching the map for it and it being an actual rare event worth something.  The problem with Illy right now is that there is way too much of everything, the last equip rollout helped, but there really isnt much of anything thats worth a ton anymore because everything is so common.

  An alliance stash / inventory in hubs can be great. 
  Authorized member can send, take or trade to alliance stash. Leaders have more power.
  An 2001 web game had guild inventory.

Support random chest drops. Might work best if done rarely, advance notice to build up excitement, and in connection with a game event such as an anniversary, special tourney, seasonal change, or lunar event. Has there ever been an eclipse (except when the system went down for upgrades?)

Also, would be great to get something interesting from factions - especially rare gear, minerals, and herbs where they are mentioned in connection with a faction in game lore

Under this, treasure chest may be the wrong term, but instead something like faction shipment.

If/when faction AI fully is released, attacking these shipments could be worked into faction standings.

^^ This.

I'm spending much of this month on things Faction, and I think this is "totes amazeballs awesomesauce", as I believe the youth of today might have it.

This is the thread that never ends, yes it goes on and on my friend. Some person started it, not knowing what it was, and we'll continue posting on it forever just because...

This is something we looked at in some detail whilst fleshing out an [unimplemented] Animal Mastery/Summoning school of magic.

The biggest problem we had was marrying an Animal Summoning school with the existing Nature AI systems (which deal with habitats/biomes etc) - ie the problem of Snow Leopards in the Equatorial Jungle etc. 

We did look at 'reducing the summons time' or 'increasing the summoned expense' if animals were being summoned out-of-habitat, but in the end we felt it was all a bit too complicated to express in a UI, simply to assuage our collective love of the 1982 film The Beastmaster LOL

Treasure chests could work in one way or the other. I quite like that idea. We should discuss that one in a separate thread for treasure chests alone. My thoughts are this though: 
 How big should the guard be. How many treasure chests should be able to be on the map at the same time. What should the prizes be? Medals? Prestige scraps? T3 or T4 advanced crafted items? Shards? Essences? Etc.. imo it should be hard to defeat the guard and maybe then also find a key for the chest in surrounding terrain like Caves/Mines using thieves or one of the other diplo units sent to these locations to trigger the opening of the chest or gain access to fight the guard in the first place. Quite intriguing idea all in all :) 
I think this is a very interesting idea, and would love to get some further thoughts.

Best wishes,
