Or at least allow us to see her name tag while in combat.
Yeah not being able to see when Eos/Selene are summoned makes it kind of difficult to see when they are out.
I'm no stranger to placing eos somewhere specific and then forgetting to hit heel. This just makes it so it's even harder for me to tell I forgot to call her.
Not surprised I'm not the only one to have this cross my mind.
Yeah. I'm visually impaired, and making her out against the background of everything else is near impossible now. I've been maining sch since 2.3ish, but honestly I think this just made the class unplayable for me. I don't understand why we can't even have the option to show names still.
You can turn on pet names during combat, that's still there in the options. But definitely sometimes the pets can get lost in the heat of things and you aren't sure where they are or what they are doing.
Edit: for the above, just tested it. The name shows outside of combat but not during, even though the options has a "only during battle" option.
Not sure about adding it to the party list again.... but it would be nice to have a buff showing in the statuses to representative if you have a pet summoned, kind of like how AST has their sects showing etc.
They're going to have to add some updates if they are not going to have Eos/Selene in the party list. That said, now that we can no longer deploy off of Lily and pets take no damage, I honestly don't need to see her in my party list, but I do need to clearly see when she's out especially with the change to Dissipation and the addition of Seraph. The party list was what I previously looked at to make sure Lily was out if I was not certain, but the fairy gauge used to be an indicator as well. Unfortunately, unlike in SB the fairy gauge is present full-time now, even when Lily is not on the battle field.
TBH, I can't really recall pets taking damage being something that was complained about. Lily hardly took damage in most scenarios I was in. She would get her but kicked in PoTD and certain raids though, but I liked that. Eating her when she's was nearly a goner felt like a sacrificial act that empowers the SCH. A bit morbid I know, but I watch a lot of anime.
I never had an issue with having to resummon Lily after a Dissipation because I always considered her a part of the party. It was so underutilized that I considered it akin to a rezz and would swiftcast it.
While we're at it... what's up with the weird showing of MP in the party frame? the last 3 0's are on another line for some reason
It just looks off, i hope they change that back
As mentioned elsewhere, I wonder if simply having her teleport to you and then auto /heeling when you run out of range would be the simple fix for this. I always remember WoW and EQ handling this issue in a similar manner and it just makes a bit more sense imho.
