for the love of everything good and holy can we get block/parry actions to light up

yea, so there's a bunch of skills that are dependent on blocks parrying, and evasion. can we get these skills to light up like the combos do. This has been brought up 1,000,000 times in the past year and through all the class reform its still as broken as ever. No one likes randomly hitting these sills to see if they are rdy to use.

do you mean like text pop ups? like miss, ability, and damage display? It does help so much to see these displays pop up over the monsters and our heads. Block and parry would definitely add much.

I think he means the action bar, which is def the way to go. when theres 8+mobs swarming around I can barely even see myself or my target, much less sift through the dense cascade of text-pops. Light that sh*t up SE! You KNOW if this was a console FF title it would have this. A sound effect wouldn't hurt either. Just sayin'. My only solution is to put all my reactive abilities on the first few slots and just keep hitting them while I wait for combo skills to recharge. Every so often one takes and I get to sneak in a haymaker. Only afterwards will I go, "Oh! i guess i dodged something...hooray!"

I would "like" this more than once if I could. I've been wanting to see a distinction between "ready" and "not ready" with reactive abilities ever since I started using them.

This would be nice.

I logged in from work just to say "Please god make these abilities flash when the requirement to use them is met!"

Thanks!

I would agree with this and would lump in actions triggered by misses. But please don't phrase your thread title like a demand. It sounds whiny.

I was going to male this post but you beat me to it op! I really hope they implement this.

I agree.

I wish we could get a circle outline similar to the one from combos. If it lit up after successful evades, blocks, parries, then it would be so much easier to trigger moves like Haymaker.
