Categorize Trusts

[Economizer]

Currently Trust Magic all shares the same white symbol. Please consider separating them into rough categories for convenience. Perhaps seven categories like tank, melee, ranged, magic, healing, support, and "special". Even if you have not made any solid plans yet, please tell us if you're considering this for future version updates.

At the very least, apply additional help text, such as the intended role or job of the trust. Being away from the game for a while and acquiring new trusts, there are a few names I am not familiar with. Minor inconvenience as I know I can simply look up the trust information here (http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/guide/trust/) but in game it would be helpful to display their role. Thanks!

The development team is actually looking into doing just this; however, I don't have an exact implementation time to share just yet. I'll be sure to keep you posted!

I like the Idea Eco and I agree.

I think just a Tank, Healer, and DD Icon would suffice. Having 7 different icons would be as annoying/confusing as having just 1. Perhaps Tank, Healer, Support, DD... but the others seems nonsensical and redundant... Ranged/Mages are still DD, and Special isn't helping anyone figure out what they do.

Special would be for the moogle ect that act like Geos that boost something or is regen/refresh and it's a constant effect. Though I guess they could be slapped under support.

[Aeron]

Is there anyway the devs would consider allowing us to set distance commands on some of the trusts? Its really a pain when the whm trusts stay right next to you when you're a melee dd in battle.

What? You have no plans? Oh wait. OMG, you said there ARE plans?!

the world is ending! Cats and dogs living together, mass hysteria!

I see what you mean but.. yah, I'd categorize GEO-Buff NPCs as Support as well

In the same vein, why not just add a description to a Trust's description in the Trust menu? Even something like "Summons Sakura to fight by your side. Gives a regen effect and combat skill ups are increased." would be helpful. Or even if there was mention of certain Trusts gaining power when others were summoned (such as Lion and Aldo) could go in the description.

Anything that adds information is a step forward. While players know what certain Trusts do via testing or because SE tells us, in the future, it would centralize that information within FFXI.

That's why Camate replied instead of Grek. Grek never has plans!

[Antanias]

Why not change the colors of the names of the Trust spells to Red for DPS, Blue for Tank, and Green for Healer?

Can you please look into BST pet Jug. Some of them are confusing to know what kind of pet we are calling because you give them weird name. For example Rhyming Shizuna what kind of pet is it no label or nothing? Can you please label every pet jug as sheep, lizard, beetle etc as for the weird name you don't have to change it but we need to know what kind of pet it is by label.

He may not have plans, but he does look into things occasionally. (http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/44367-Please-consider-adding-armor-to-the-sparks-vendors.?p=525579#post525579)

They've actually removed some color palettes from the chatlog last update, I'm pretty sure they won't be adding any colors to other things.
I could be wrong, though.

Just an update on the above! The team will be implementing this in the December version update. :)

I wish you send an attack command so that you as say a mage didnt have to and melee them to get the action started its a real pai.
