what Quality of life improvements do you want?

[Packetdancer]

I want to be able to accept my dungeon regardless my current job and auto swap to the correct job I queued with.

As nice as that would be -- believe me, I'd like it too -- I suspect the reason they can't is that we don't inherently have "this is the gear I am wearing for a job" data; we have gearsets, yes, but you can have no gearset for a job and just equip the weapon and job stone (and I know people who do this!) and then put on whatever gear you have. You can also have more than one gearset for a job; I have a Bozja healer gearset (to put on my gear with Bozjan bonus stats) and a Eureka RDM gearset (to put on Eureka-bonus gear), in addition to my normal gearsets.

What it would need to do is store your equipped gear at the moment you queued in (instead of just "job, at this level, with this ilevel"), and forcibly equip that gear when pulling you into the instance.

The two problems with this are how you handle things if someone has gotten better gear in the meantime and gotten rid of the old gear... and the fact that while a gearset doesn't take up a lot of memory, it does take up a non-zero amount. And this game seems have enough issues with hitting computing resource caps that I fear what would happen if the roulette system needed to take up, like, 4x more active memory than it currently does, just in order to store everyone's gearset data at the moment they queued in.

The alternative I see would be that it would just do the "equip recommended gear" for a given job to calculate your ilevel, and then when you queued in it would do the 'equip recommended gear' again.

This would have the benefit that gear-cheesing roulettes would no longer be a thing -- you can't switch down to a low ilevel to ensure you get Crystal Tower without stuffing all your level 90 Asphodelos stuff into a retainer or something! -- but it would also really mess with low-level roulettes; in the Realm Reborn level range, frequently it will (incorrectly) recommend equipping higher-level DPS gear onto a tank and so on, because of how things in the ARR level range are set up to be equipped just by "Disciple of War" or "Disciple of Magic" as opposed to Fending/Maiming/Striking/Aiming/Scouting/Casting/Healing.

But yeah, I agree; the implementation issues I see in it notwithstanding, if there was a good way to make it work it would be really nice. Especially for anyone queuing as one job and then heading out to, say, farm FATEs on another...

Seamless DoH / DoL. Be able to go into a craft menu and craft the item, having it auto-magically change you into the required job and then change you back into the job you were. Similarly be your DoW / DoM in nature, find and see a node and be able to just gather from it without any sort of awkward pause. This might even include the option to ignore gear switching, such that it is pure butter transition (hyper smooth, just whip out a pickaxe or your crafting tool). You can still turn into that job at will and wander around as that job if you want.

Smart auto-translate / text in as many places as possible. Like map names translated if interacted with open that place on the map. All recipes in quest text can be selected to open to that recipe.

There are a few QOL that i can thing of that will make life easer

1) for gathering. make it so you can see the items that you will unlock with the folklore. so you can see if you want to go after that book. and in which order you might want to get it..

2) make it so you can see what you need to do to unlock said book from the gathering log menu

3) make it so when your in the gathering log you can do a spot check to see if you have a item


do you have any QOL you like to see in game?

"DiD YoU WaTcH A ViDeO?" - Appeal to ban

ANY third party tools - Appeal to ban

[vetch]

The ability to suppress HQ items while quick-synthesizing.

I've seen a lot of big asks that are not so much QoL, so just thought to add onto that wagon-

I'd really love to see an improvement to movement in this game. At the suggestion of a fellow here in the forums I tried GW2 some more, and there are a lot of things I love about FFXIV but the movement feels so much better over there that it makes me feel like goofy ice skating on my mount here. The jumping where you can move in the air, that's fine.. I'm okay with FFXIV having it more locked. But like the mount movement is chef kiss good and I feel that it would make the world a lot more fun to explore if we had improvements akin to that.

Let me sit on ledges and whatever else I wanna sit on without a certain portion of the community crying about it.

I'll always remember the day someone messaged me to tell them I was standing too close to 'their' bench. Surprisingly this happened in Ul'dah and not Limsa...

[Teteiyusu]

PvP sprint available in cities.

Oh... and one more HUGE important QoL...

BRING BACK 6.0 Sam! BRING BACK KAITEN, and fix the skills that they changed back to normal!

That is all. Thanks! XD
