What job gauge in this entire game tells you what positional you are on? That's what your hotbar icons are for. The green ones flank and the red ones are rear.

Also the gauge does a good job telling you what part of the combo you are in once you understand it. With just a glance it tells you if you are on the first, second, or finisher step in the combo with is useful for knowing when to weave the oGCD proc and when to do the positional. The dotted lines don't tell you this. There is also not a color blindness problem here since if you can't see the colors you can still see that both segments of the blade are glowing.

"The use of colors in the Vipersight gauge is rather superfluous; the colors do not convey any information other than what step of the combo you are in."

"It doesn't convey any information besides this one very important piece of information" ?????


"The sides lit up on the Vipersight gauge should clearly indicate whether you should be pushing your Steel Fangs or Dread Fangs (or ae equivalent) hotbar button. Right now it's just "left/right" which correlates to those actions and what they change to."


The left/right isn't enough? Your hotbar proc lines already indicate which GCD to press next. It's kind of wild to me that Viper of all jobs, one that is getting meme'd on for being super easy to follow the glowing lines, has people saying it doesn't hand hold you enough
