Suggestions: Quality of Life Stuff and other suggestions

I mean holding down the buttons and using left and right to change books, you only have to press the button once to bring up macros and then use left/right to choose one. You have to hold the buttons down to flip pages in the same book using up and down, it'd be nice to be able to change books in the same fashion using left/right, although there may be an issue for people using keyboards and arrow keys for their macros...though not sure why you wouldn't just hit ctrl/alt + #

Edit: Thinking on it, to solve that problem they could make us hold ctrl+alt(or equivalent buttons) together then use left/right to change books, might be a work around keyboards having to hold ctrl/alt to choose a macro using arrows

Not sure if it's been brought up, but I'd love to see a means to store the Rem's Tales Chapters. Whether you are saving them up or have extras to spare, they're sure to take up a considerable amount of inventory space. Would it be possible to introduce the means to store them, perhaps with the NPC Monisette? Thanks!

use them right away or toss them =P

but if we're going to talk about storing things... how about a way to store REMEs? can't put them on a storage slip, NPC, nor mule them.

that's correct, it's not. you said a solution, you didn't put in the parameters of said solution that it had to involve storing.

it's not being obtuse, it's being playful. you are the one that is obtuse for you didn't even see that I put =P in my original reply.

Not sure if these have been said yet but gonna go ahead and post it anyways (I believe some have been stated before).

Increase what you can reclaim with AMAN Vouchers:
Guild Points
Nyzul Isle Tokens
Zeni
Ichor
Voidwatch Stones
Heavy Metal Plates
Dynamis Currency
Riftdross/Riftcinder (even if its 5:1 trade)

Home points in Beastmen Strongholds in the past by the BCNMs, in Halzam Testing Grounds

Decrease timer for Assault tags as your rank goes up

Show the decimal point for crafts and skills

Be able to warp to beastmen strongholds in the past from towns

Trading 3:1 limbus upgrade items for an item you want and/or buy the ones you want with ABCs

Make empyrean weapon upgrade items non-exclusive (can exclude souls because of demand and possible monopolizing)

Being able to be apart of multiple crafting guilds at once for points

WKR/Delve Gun (bullet from hurkan doesn't count and X-bow from Shark doesn't either)

Allow to get multiple stones from NPC for skirmish at once instead of one at a time

Unlock Relic WSes so that they can be used with or without the weapons

Please please please add ToAU, WotG and SoA jobs to relic weapons; I know its been asked before, but its only fair (would love to use Mandau on DNC!)

Change Gungnir's Aftermath, shock spikes is so hate'n

Change Einherjar's time limit to 30 minutes regardless if there is under 6 people, people are not gonna waste time being in there, its a get in and get out thing.

Make Reforges for Abjuration gear and Salvage.

Be able to go into beaten mission fights for fun. Also make it so on CoP mission fights can choose to have level cap on fight or not (the idea of doing "One to be Feared" with the level cap for the fun of it brings a challenge back that can be done again.)

Make ToAU Kings (Khimmy, Hydra and Cerby) pop NMs. You get the items from the ISNMs and then those Kings have a chance to drop a higher tier pop for even better items

Remove runic portal animation along with Magian moogle.

Remove tally wait for Ebisu Rod

Uncap the rest of merits; with Job Points becoming mandatory/necessary at this point, being able to merit everything shouldn't effect things drastically.

Decrease wait time for relic stages, totally unnecessary in this day and age; JP midnight is at the most acceptable

When getting Campaign tag ask automatically if you want in a Union

Make Campaign like Reives where you get performance evaluations instead of having to take off your tags

Add a guard stance on mnk where you get high guard rate and some PDT but can't counter while active

Adjust drop rate of Crystal Petrifacts so they drop less; having a chest that has 3+ in them is uncalled for

Make Magian Trial Weapons upgradable to Ilevel, only thing this system is really good for at the moment is for empyrean and relic armor and REM weapons

No, please no. If this were to happen, Morta/Bismark would be dead and how would us crafters get Belladonna Sap and Sealord Skins?

Will never happen, RUN and GEO got their own special superweapons that no other job gets instead. New jobs were not added to the mythic or empyrean weapons either so there is therefore no precedent for a chance.

Unrestricting merits will also never happen, the system was deisgned to require you to make choices; merit points are much easier to get than job points as a tradeoff.

90% of the stuff on that list however is very much YES PLEASE, though. :)

Please make it so you can store Relic/Empyrean/Mythic Weapons and Shields. Or at least mule them to same account.

Yes, Please! {Agreed!!}

Edited-In: I'm more on the idea of storing then sending them to your second\another character on the same account but then again both being active or having the ability to send them to either character and store them would be cool too. :cool:

well since we are sort of on the topic, i'd like to see them up-gradable to higher versions and maybe even reforged versions of there weapons. well maybe only on certain types!? :D

:confused: So i have been noticing that /itemsearch fails quite a bit. Specially after it failed to find any instances of the item you searched for and then manually finding it, then doing the same search again while looking right at the item with everything spelled correctly on the items name and it still fails to verify the items existence in in any of you mog spaces/inventory.

:confused: The other thing I've noticed is that my 2nd character to becoming a main characters trusts icons in front don't show up like they should and only show blob-balls of glue as an icon. Any Ideas as to why they show up on one character like they should but not on the other character on the same account?? Maybe the final fantasy team has ideas as to why as well??

Display combined total of job points applied per job

Display gifts: both currently active, perhaps in bold, and gifts not yet active, along with the required points needed

You already get both.

Go to Job Points > Job, then press left or right. At the top it says: "Combo Total" which is the # you have used on that job. Gifts activated are bolded, those yet to be activated are grey. Doesn't say remaining points needed, but it does tell you total required. So just subtract that # from the # at the top.

There's two spell menu icon sets, the original where every spell has the same icon in the same magic type, except for the elemental color, and one where spells have more unique icons. It's in your config menu. The new Trust icons are only for the new icon set, they don't affect the original icon set. Your 2nd character is set to use the old icons, and your 1st character is set to use the new ones

??Can you be more specific on the details since i'm not finding anything that remotely says trusts or trust icons in the configs menu!

Was at work, couldn't check the game. Config > Misc. > Icon Type > 2. Type 1 is the old icons, type 2 is the new ones where every icon is unique.

It's not just for Trust icons, it's for all spells and JAs. Of course it's not going to be labeled for Trusts.

that's not QoL. That's a quest/content reduction.

edit: o, my bad. i suppose that would fall under "other suggestions"

Several of us have corrupted mission states and cannot progress. An option to reset the current mission, or to clear all mission progress in a chain would be useful. I've been stuck on my San d'Oria mission since November 2013 without being able to complete it, and trying all the steps multiple times over the past year.

which mission, and what part of it are you stuck on?

Okay according to ffxi's wiki new years guide your supposed to trade stacks of certain foods until the little sheep are full enough in certain area's to get cait sith to spawn or pop up and join the group but i've traded 3 days strait between stacks of napa and La Theine Cabbage with only me seemingly to be in the xarcabard but no cait sith-{mythical cat}? I also wonder if the mythical cat can only appear in one area out of vana'dieal at a time and no where else at the same time?

now my other question is, isn't there supposed to be goblins running around in xarcabard on leviathan server for the goblins vs moogle's event like last years event? please let me know since i have given up any hope thus far to get the mythical cat to pop at all in xarcabard on the leviathan server, Thanks!! :confused:

I would like to see this feature as well. I feel like I'm stuck on Mission 9-1 and haven't been able to contact a GM about fixing it.

from your link it looks like you are attempting 8-2 Lightbringer. Can you first check your Profile and Mission log to see that you are indeed on that Mission.

Next can you list the steps (in detail) that you are taking to complete the mission. Please do so as you are doing it, not off memory nor copying from wiki.

I also posted in that thread as I'm having the same problem with Bastok 6-2. I posted a bug about it back in 2013 and have yet to see anything done about it. Yes I have attempted every single step (following Multiple wikis), Multiple times, over a span of a year+ now.

I went through the entire quest with an LS member, and we talked ot all the NPCs at the same time. The part I am stuck at is getting the Broken Key Fragment KIs needed to spawn the Nio NMs. Everything worked up until that point. My LS member got the KIs, I didn't, and we travelled through the entire mission together. He got the CS after killing them, I couldn't. The NPCs afterward back in San d'Oria's Chateau responded to both of us as if Lightbringer had been found, but I can't complete the mission because I'm missing two cutscenes, the one in the temple and the one with the king. It's been a little while since I went through it, but I've done so about 5 times, the last after clearing out every active quest in my log that used the Temple or the Chateau, and it still wouldn't give me the KIs. It says "this looks like a place for an offering" or something to that effect when I check the ???s. My main time to play is on Saturdays, for a block of about 4 hours, so I'm not sure when I'm going to try again. I've told at least 2 GMs exactly the steps I have tried, and they are in my post history for threads I have created on being stuck. The threads always get closed and filed into the hidden Resolved Issues forum in Technical Support.

we should be able to /shout, /yell, /say and access the menu while we are dead just as you can in FFXIV

also we should be able to see a list of EVERYONE in the linkshell and who joined and who left, just as we can do so in FFXIV.

also shorten the recast time on summoning your wyvern for Dragoon, every other pet job can summon their pet instantly, if drg dies they have to wait 20 minutes, the timer needs to be shortened.

please allow Guild Point items to be put on a slip or muled to same account. I have almost all of the furniture and skill + gear for all crafts (yes i went and got veteran/expert in all crafts).... it's taking up a lot of room, lol.

ooh, i remembered another option that would help that someone else mentioned. allow an inventory space for mog house furniture only. wouldn't cover the skill + worn items, but better than nothing.

Can you actually get higher than level 70 in sub crafts? I thought the rule was that you could get to 70, then you had basically 40 "extra" points to divide up among all your crafts (excluding Fishing and Synergy). So that you could get up to 110 in a chosen craft, and 70 in every other craft (which is what I did).

you only get 40 extra points to take crafts above 70. what you can do is take a craft to 98, get expert, then level another craft above 70. the one at 98 will lower at the same time once the one at 70 gets to 82, but you retain the title of expert. which is what i did. and so that is why i have all the stalls, and almost all of the other furniture and worn skill + items as well.

Yeah! it's just the one of the things that I really despise about leveling crafts into the higher levels by raising yet another craft into the higher tiers, you can actually loose all that time consuming hard work on another craft as it drops in levels just because you decided to do yet another craft to benefit you or some one who looks forward to seeing you craft stuff and you would love to do it in all crafts as well. It's like it's punishing you for pursuing into going further with another craft in a way as well!!

I also don't agree with the guilds being at a type war at least in somewhat mini story line of what I recall on how you they don't allow you to have the ability to purchase all KI's & crafting wardrobe gears from all crafting guilds at the same time instead of one puny locked to it guild at a very slow paced gain at a time! "guessing" this type of thing may be never changed our fixed since the creators or workers, just seem to be so busy with everything else that they are there adding into the game atm. <{at the moment.} <-Who knows for sure though of course!!

{[what I'm attempting to say is that I'd like to be able to point purchase or purchase all crafting wardrobe armors, crafting KI's from all guilds and not just one guild's item's at a time upon only after switching then it becomes available to you to do.]}

Any-1 else feel it, feel the same way about being restricted to only put 7 items up on the AH out of 7 of the 80 slots type of storage's + inventory we carry around which is about 560 total!, minus the 80 on wardrobe storage = 640. I guess in way 7 slots on the ah would of been alright in the very long ago, very old days when it was one or two storage + inventory but now that we have much more we carry and wishing a lot more then the unlogical/illogical 7 slotted items on the auction house when versed with so much storage, putting 7 items only seems to small of an amount, like smaller the end tip of a threading needle, puny.

I had a few ideas to include that could solve an issue on the AH such as this and one of has been suggested in another way or with more then one type of name of the same thing previously on another thread.

#1. Make a 2nd Auction house and call it "Overstocked Auction House" or Add auction house npc's like in Norg & Tavnazian Safehold to "existing auction houses" and more ah npc's for such area's as Norg, Tavn. Safehold & Rabao for the 2nd auction house idea's that can handle the additional X-amount of items up on the ah.

#2. Create an AH Storage Vender or a huge Auction House Storage Vendor, I guess like a vending machine that will store items to be sold that you put up at the AH price you want it to sell at but of course you will get to see the ah price history before placing it up to be sold and it will be there waiting for one of the 7 items to sell and once it has open slot from an item sold out of the 7 items dropping it down to 6 etc. and it will automatically place the next item up on the ah! The only fickle problem with this is the ah sold items um..i'll call it the sold history list as it is now has to be cleared before more items can be put up on the ah, I guess it could sell it right directly from AH Storage Vendor in this case but items do take to long/a very time to sell as it is or don't sell at all as it is already which this expansion could help while waiting for those items to sell.

#3.Weeell.....Shoot forget the rest of the ideas I've had for this for everyone on all severs who've wanted the AH to increase it's slots in the amount of items it could hold into selling on the AH.
I have heard folks say that its due to the games mechanics that its reached the maxed out limit onto all it could hold all together which is the problem they have had with FFXIV and thus I'm kind of hoping the few ideas I've suggested could possibly be a thinking outside of the box work around type of suggestion, I Hope.

^ They tried to expand the AH to allow more slots (I believe at the time, 8), but they found that bogged the servers down too much.

"Increasing both the amount of items that can be listed on the Auction House and the length of time items are listed on the Auction House will directly increase server load.

With that said, there are no plans to implement these requests, but if the dev. team decides to do so, it will only be one of the suggested increases and not both.

The development team would like to look into these requests very carefully because each one would increase the server load, which would also cause an increase in the time required for the Auction House to load. "

http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Category:News/FFXI

July 9th 2002 was when they decreased the slots from 8 to 7, after the May 16th 2002 launch. They did it because the huge population that signed up at launch all hitting the AH servers made them unstable. I would wager we have fewer players now than at launch, and a more robust server.

But yes, when the game launched, you didn't even have furniture storage. You has a Mog Safe (50 items) and a Gobbiebag (30 items), and it took a while before you could increase either of those. As such, the number of AH slots versus your inventory slots was high, at almost 10% of your inventory capacity. Now it's a very small percentage, just over 1%. That's a pretty big decrease of relative capacity. The number of items for us to use has also exponentially grown since launch.

Thanks for all the feedback!

We plan on continuing to add more home points, and we'll take your suggestions into consideration when we plan out new locations.

Please continue to post your suggestions on any other areas where you would like to have a home point.

Not that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things, but I did get a Rank 4 prize on one of my mule characters during the 2015 Mog Bonanza. I chose the "Sheet of Adoulinian Tunes" as I thought it would be sendable to my main, as most of the items at that tier are sendable to same-account characters. However, I was sad to find out that the "Sheet of Adoulinian Tunes" (and likely the "Sheet of Promathian Tunes") are not sendable to another same-account character...

Right now I have an item that is essentially wasted as I don't have anything to play music in my mule character's Mog House, while my main has a Spinet and Orchestrion. I suppose I should have known it was a possibility that the item wouldn't be deliverable, but like I said, most of the other items at Rank 4 are - in addition to the fact that SquareEnix has been pretty good about telling us when items are not deliverable, such as items from the login campaigns. It would be awesome if those "Tunes" items could be sent to other characters...It's not like they impact gameplay in any way. :p

(Also, I collected my Mog Bonanza prizes on the 19th, which was 1 day before the undeliverable items list was updated. My fault for not waiting, I suppose.)

Edit:
Spoke with a GM and they recommended I post here the following suggestions:
-To implement some kind of replacement system if you choose the wrong prize. Or maybe give GMs the authority to swap prizes in situations like mine (wasn't exactly sure what they meant).
-To indicate on the Mog Bonanza page the items that are not transferable, much like what is done on the login campaign pages, before the prizes are able to be redeemed.
-To allow items like the tunes sheets, cosmetic gear, and non-gameplay affecting furniture to be transferable between same-account characters.
