    So join a different Unity. Why should SE create a tool if you refuse to use the one you have now?

    Also, doesn't Asura have some kind of chatbot character named "Whereisdi" that tells you exactly where DI is, on command?

    Use? It's unusable. Other than spamming the Active on and off in the attempt to try and get in it - not exactly the most productive way in the world.

    So, use a bot is what you are saying?

    What I'm saying is send a /tell to the character named "Whereisdi" and you will find out exactly where Domain Invasion is at that exact moment.

    The difference between Besieged and Domain Invasion is that Besieged happens occasionally, whereas Domain Invasion is constant. A KI that tells you when domain invasion is happening is going to spam messages constantly. No thanks. A useable item, similar to those magian trial glasses, would be better.

    Still, you have been given 3 existing options:

    * Different Unity and work out a different Trust strategy
    * Different Server (this probably wouldn't work though -- Unity chat capacity is pretty low and Yoran-Oran is pretty popular everywhere)
    * The player generated solution created specifically to address your exact problem.

    You are asking SE to fix a problem you seem to go out of your way to create.

    Campaign Battle messages happen pretty often as well, but there is a chat filter for them. I think that works pretty okay.

    They could also show them only in the Escha areas I guess, like Bastion (remember that!?), but it would still be nice to be able to filter them out.

    Perhaps an item would be okay too, but I wonder how much unnecessary server stress it would cause what with all the people querying for it (I suppose the majority might still go by the unity messages though).

    I'd like the Campaign Battle sort of option most, probably, or maybe an NPC that would talk about it (I think the Abyssea people in towns can tell about Bastion... or I remember crazy).

    It would be a nice change, though I personally can live with checking the areas, or flipping the chat switch for a time (tend to be in Sylvie's chat since no other alter ego quite does what she does, but I also tend to keep the chat off if it's being full to give a spot to someone else, unless I really want to see it (would be nice to know about Mireu in some way still though)).
