Combat Text ! Plz Help and SE CHANGE THAT!

He's saying he only wants to see his numbers/buffs/debuffs. There is no way to filter it, you either see everyone's
numbers and actions, or you see nothing. I've also been wanting this since launch. I have had my scrolling text turned
off since day 1 because I don't want all that clutter on my screen.

I don't care if the healer heals for 678. I don't care if the tank takes 1398 damage. I want to see only my actions/numbers
specifically. That's what he's talking about. The different colors has nothing to do with it.

I've never seen a more legitimate request worded and expressed so horribly. Having only personal flying text display would be preferred, and I actually agree with you, but asking it like OP has is the most asinine way to go about it.

When you were a child (you might still be), did you ever want a toy from the toy store? Did you throw a fit about it? If so, you probably didn't get said toy (or shouldn't have). I seriously read your post imagining spit flying out of your character's mouth and some drool following it.

The different colors help you focus on only your flying text. That is what I do. Sometimes I like to look at other people's numbers as well.

Why is the fact that people want more options so hard to grasp for you? Did you forget about 1.0's ui? I can argue using your logic that KB players dont need more than 1 bar displayed at a time. They can just scroll up and down on the 1 hotbar to pick a hotbar I want! It worked for me! (No, it didn't). Now we have multiple bars and scrollable main bar.

Yes, I'm not saying the different colors are bad or that they should eliminate the option to see everyone's. I'm just saying it would be nice to
be able to toggle your text to only see tank, healer, dps, or any variation of. Some people like seeing their own text, but not everyone else's.

Or maybe a healer only wants to see the tanks text to help them heal, or whatever the case may be. Perhaps adding a toggle for each individual
in a party would be good. Or even specific text if they could do that. Options are never a bad thing.

You just made my day.

LMAO.

Wow, calm down . .

In complete agreement, but unfortunately, when the kid grows up, s/he is the one that gets the free meals or store credit (despite being well beyond a days' limit). They make a huge fuss at the store counter, in the restaurant, scream and shout.. the manager to appease this person just offers something for free. I have always hated this kind of thing.

Post is meant as a general observation and not aimed at OP specifically

Fun to see the 3k Flare crits from a BLM
