Small QoL FFXIV Improvements

Submitted by ffxivfans on Thu, 07/28/2016 - 22:17

Just a few small QoL improvements:

Try On Multiple Armors It would be fantastic if we had the ability to try on multiple pieces of armor at a time.

Separate UI Elements HP, MP, TP, Buffs, Debuffs, Target Status, Focus Castbar, and Target Castbar should all have separate UI elements that can be manipulated independently.

Inventory Search Let us search items in our inventory windows with a search box.
Tab Target Have the target icons dictate tab target order, or give us the option to choose tab target priority method. Would also be great if icons set enemy list order!
Item Macros Give us some means to use Potions and the like in macros, please!
Enemy List Targets As a tank, knowing who's pulled a certain mob off me would be incredibly helpful.

The UI is already leagues ahead of other out-of-the-box MMO UIs I've seen, but these would just push it a little further. 

They could model it after a try-on feature like Final Fantasy XIV Gil LOTRO has. It lets you try on multiple pieces of gear together and it combines a dye preview into the feature as well. It's nice getting to check how various items would look together if dyed different ways, and all before you decide whether to buy any of them.

They actually said they're going to be adding the multi try-on feature in 3.1 in the latest Dev Letter, though I agree that it would also be nice to see how the pieces would look with dye.

In the latest Letter from the Producer LIVE, Yoshi-P discussed plans for a feature that will allow you to save parts of the gear for trying on. You will be able to use this feature to try on a full set of gear, or mix different types of gear. As for dyeing in gear preview, we're still looking into this, so we ask for your patience a bit longer!

Please add a quantity option to the GC seal turn in. (itting there trying to get below cap buy buying coke 200 seals per piece and one at a time is tedious.) 

- Add mini aetheryte location names to the map in Ishgard and other places. (Opening the map and hovering over an aethryte should show corresponding aetheryte name from the list) I can't tell you how many times I've had to play aetheryte roulette trying to teleport to a desired location in Ishgard. 

- respawn dead characters at the last aetheryte used as opposed to "home". 

- option to disable "not yet ready" message/noise FFXIV Gil indefinitely or while in combat. 

- 2 customizable UI sets for "in battle" and "out of battle" to free up screen real estate when free roaming or doing other activities. (Could be triggered by unsheathing weapon)
