QOL Adjustments this Game DESPERATELY NEEDS

[Roarey]

I am so glad that having another class/job suffer from the lack of visual display of the tp bar has brought attention back to this glaring oversight! Bards have suffered this limitation since the start, and unlike ninjas...our dps suffers while we use our mp/tp regen songs. Not enough people are aware of this and believe we should read minds, watch all their skill usage all while trying to guess when they want tp over mp or us to just focus on burning the mobs with our complete dps.
Between this oversight, the fact that sch and smr still share attributes and choco as party members, I continue to get more and more disillusioned with every patch that is released that do nothing for these.

Make it switchable for the PS3, real systems aka PS4 and PC version should be able to display both.

Another QoL update I would like BACK is the original Macro icons for all the various abilities. The macro icons we have now are far too few and often confuse me when I make a macro and then a few days later I can't remember what that Purple Crystal icon I used was supposed to tell me.

Please SE, give us back our macro icons.

If the reason we can't have them is PS3 limitations, well then give PS3 the set we have now and give PS4/PC back the old ones. I tire of hearing "PS3 limitations" as an excuse

/macroicon "insert skill name here"

Personally, I'm only interested in roughly how much TP my party members have more than exactly how much TP they have. Unless maximum TP amount changes, then a full bar is always 1000. And half a bar would be around 500. If nearly empty, I know they are very low on TP and probably need some more (Paeon or Goad would be very useful here, is what I'd be thinking). So even just having a bar without numbers would be sufficient for most players, I think.

Or better instead as a bar, show it as a percentage value. [100%] would need less space on the screen than [*****.....]

[Kiara1]

yes I agree 100%

Also, I am trying to keep my friend playing this game but it's hard cause he is always like "I feel like playing a ingle player game with others"
Why?

He can't do low level roulette with me and he thinks its stupid that to get the exp bonus he needs to play with 3 other ppl when he'd rather play with me and 2 randoms
We can't do levequests in a group, waiting for a PF to fill up and all you got left is 3 leves for your animus?
Nope nope can't do it you must leave the group or make everyone come to the zone
Same with treasure maps

First I tried to defend the game but now I actually feel like I AM playing a single player game with other people too

These are some fixes I would love to see happen

As there may be more actions that directly affect the TP of other players introduced in the future, the dev. team would like to work on adding in a display for party member TP. However, there is a limit to the number of items that can be displayed on the screen at the same time, so we have considered swapping the MP bar to instead show the TP bar.

In doing so, we would then be required to introduce a feature that will allow players to switch the display between TP and MP smoothly, even during battle. We would appreciate your patience while the development team continues to research if and how to efficiently display TP bars for all party members. We’ll be sure to share any updates we have on this in the future.

Please add this feature to PC version now(since PC has no memory limitations) and later, when you figure out how to do it on consoles, you can add it to consoles.

Because if a class appears to use both TP and MP in the future, they would have to find another solution again.

You don't need to wait for the future, Paladin already does this.

Paladin's mana is least of all concerns for a brd.

Unless your playstyle of a Paladin is "Spamming the Flash button until all mana burns and then push all buttons that are not on cd", Paladin uses TP, and the important aggro skills (flash apart) all uses TP.

He also can manage to get back mana on his own.

Which is irrelevant to my point.

Whether or not a Paladin can self replenish mana doesn't really have anything to do with the conversation. It's merely stating that we currently have jobs that use both TP and MP at the same time. I could have used Bard as the example and it would have made the same point as they use TP for damage and MP for songs, their efficiency at doing so doesn't suddenly devalue their statuses as jobs that use both types of resources which is what was raised.

Honestly there is no realistic reason (outside of Ps3 limitations) why we shouldn't have both TP and MP visible to us in the party list, more practical information is never a bad thing and doesn't impact anyone negatively, especially if it's done in a way that allows us to toggle it on/off if we don't wish to see it.

We can't do levequests in a group

You can
Of course only those who also have the started leve get their leve reward, but you can do leves with people in your group.

Exceptions are GC leves, they are solo leves

It shouldn't be that hard...
