Focus Target Quality of Life fix?

So I've been playing SMN alot lately and on my run of expert this afternoon, I noticed something odd...

You know how SE made it where you can toggle on/off for your debuffs on the target to appear first in the debuff list? Well, apparently, Focus Target doesn't do that!

I have no idea how I've never noticed this up until now, but why is it like this?

If I'm missing something here and there IS a way to do this, let me know.

Didn't they say they were going to fix this in a previous live letter? I have a feeling I heard this issue and them responding to it fairly recently (March/April live letter?)

I had forgotten about this. I think it's just a conflict with having only so many debuffs displayed on one target while so many are being applied

Ditto. I'm actually leveling a BLM for 24 person content because of these SMN issues. Not being able to see dot durations is kinda crippling for a summoner.

Last I checked it was 30 debuffs shown, and 60 debuffs applicable total. If you're between 30-60 and you refresh your dot or debuff you'll see, quite literally, the same icon refreshed. That is to say, your invisible icon is renewed. The effect is still there, debuffing or causing damage or whatever, but the only way to let the icon be shown is to let your duration fall all and put it back on where there is visible space.

If you're landing your effect in slots 61+ you simply won't have any effect.

Not sure if they've made any changes to this yet or not, I don't really play SMN. At best SCH but not in 24 man content.

Yep :c I usually manage to get bio II,miasma and bio off in 24 man raids, but aero gets sent to the shadow realm. :c
