Update Requests and Wishlists (All Inclusive)

[Lyniaer]

I'm gonna try to put together a list of things each person would like to see that would provide an overall improvement to the game for all players and separately a Wishlist for things of perhaps personal opinion. Some of these may be considered minor bugs.

1. Opening Cut Scene audio plays while game is minimized: stop it.
2. Option to refresh the Party Finder without having to close/reopen.
3. Place to unload unwanted or unused Dark Light equipment.
4. Paladin Shield Swipe removed from Global Cool Down.
5. Removal of overhead indicators for incoming attacks (eg, Twintania's Conflags), instead using an indicator on the ground under the feet.
6. Touch-up to Raised Invulnerability (can still die to certain AOE effects while being raised).
7. Focus Target option for controllers.
8. Player Trophies. Unlike Commendations, there's no arbitrary rule set that only people who solo-join duty finder can give them. Maybe limit to 1 per day or something, but they also include tags that show; What duty the player was in when they received the Trophy and Who gave it with a subcommand option to view that players' Free Company and Search Info. Players can then decide for themselves if that person received it legitimately. This goes a long way to helping good players find each other. Something similar to the Xbox Live player rep system. Commendations can be easily farmed, but Trophy's are hard-earned and provide no other reward but reputation within the community.
9. Crystal Tower Tokens. CT was fun at first, but now it's a mandatory grind for Philosophy and something-better-than-darklight gear. The "one piece a week" is shite and we've all seen more gear lost to the ether than is actually acquired. Some people have to run it many, many times a week just to get "that ONE piece" and it gets old fast. It's a terrible use of throwing hurdles at the player while the developers struggle to put out content for us Legacy people. How about a single Token upon clear of CT? Perhaps 5 tokens gets you a piece of your choosing. That way we don't have so many people neglecting to feed and bathe themselves, grinding their teeth into powdery dust over this place.
10. Alliance Party List display; when removed from the HUD returns after logging back in to the game.
11. Position of Duty List on the HUD is not retained after logging out.
12. Class Change in a sanctuary should not set abilities in to cool-down and should instantly restore HP/MP.

I had more, but they escape me at the moment.

Suggestion:
Reduction of overall cost of housing.
Yes, yes, I know this is a big hot button issue (and will continue to be so), also that the prices were already reduced; but if the issue is trying to get people to throw some of the gil away, why not see it go in to the economy? Implement a sort of...maintenance decay on the houses. As so much time passes, the walls, ceilings, decorations and what not will show signs of wear and need to be fixed or replaced. Maybe the yard gets out of hand or weeds grow up along the house and you need a botanist to clear them up or perhaps a crafted alchemy item (weedkiller). It's a win for the economy, a win for the players and a win for immersion. Perhaps people can put up a sign at the front of their house advertising housekeeping with going rates. Of course, a majority of Free Companies will have their own in-house people with crafting/gathering jobs but much like the "Request Meld" option, people are still going to find a use for it.

Please, add to this list or comment on it.
