Small QoL Improvements

What are you talking about? It already shows that.

Not quite. It does in the currency window, but not the HUD element.



This is showing me how many heliometry I have right now. It is more important to show me how many more I can earn this week. The importance of this wasn't lost in the people who designed the original currency window, as well as the Companion App widget.

Or the Lodestone.


The currency HUD element doesn't show it anywhere.

So for the FATEs where you have to turn in X number of items, it already shows how many of the item you have turned in. But I would love for it to show how many of that item you are carrying in your inventory. It feels clunky manually opening your inventory every time you want to check.

Please add toggle for FATE bgm. FATE music ruins immersion and annoys gatherers. It should be an option just like battle music or mount music. I've seen this topic being brough up years ago... Its just on/off thing, shouldn't be that complicated to do.

And when we are in the topic of sound, that one map in Endwalker that starts off with amazing ambient music and end up with repeating song over and over that makes sense emotionally with the story, but doesn't later on while farming. That's too bad it's there always, it downplays the song and messes up with the unique ambience of the map. And I think you have to finish the story (make the music start) to start farming. Truly, breaks my heart, its such a great place...

Agreed. You're sitting there fishing, minding your own business, and then all of a sudden you're listening to FATE music for the next 15 minutes.

IMO, the FATE music should only play if you are actively participating in the FATE. The music shouldn't change if you're on a crafting/gathering class, or if you're not synced down to the appropriate level.

Right? I know it's been almost four years now and it's not going to change, but making that song the normal zone music was an INCREDIBLY bad call. It's good song, and was super cool for MSQ purposes, but as normal zone music that plays on a loop all the time it got very annoying very quickly. Especially if you're doing something that requires spending extensive amounts of time there (fishing.)

I realized this while talking with a friend who started recently but a lot of pretty important quests are kinda archaic to find and I think there should be an in-game way that indicates these quests better.
Specifically quests such as any optional dungeons, raids and trials like Coils of Bahamut or Warring Triads and so on.
I don't think the current "recommendations" system is really good at conveying these ones specifically.
You pretty much have to go out of your way to google it or have your friends direct you to where these are.

I feel like something like how the job quests are shown now would be a nice way to go about it for these.

Agreed. The blue quest icon is great for telling you that this quest will unlock something, but with so many in the game, and no indication of what they unlock, the system has become almost useless to new players. There should be a secondary scenario guide that points to things like raids and trials.

"Will that blue quest NPC give me a 2 minute quest that rewards an emote, or is it the start of an entire alliance raid story? No one knows!"

Would it be possible to adjust the location for the level 91 FATE Feathery Dustup? I ask because doing the Pelupelu daily that requires you to carry the crate and having this FATE up at the same time makes it more cumbersome.

That isn't a UI issue and the people who need to see it probably won't if you only post it here. You'll have a better chance if you post on Forum: FATE (to get the FATE adjusted) or Forum: Quests (to get the quest adjusted).

Is it possible to replace the retainer glamour UI with one that uses icons and only shows gear they can equip? This list lacks usability.

Would it be possible to enable option to disable online status in a duty? Previously I've been using my nameplate to discern the center of my hitbox during raid (left picture) which remains very consistent. Now the addition online status in duty since 7.2 has been shifting my nameplate slightly to the right (right picture) and I can't be the only one being affected by this. Thanks for the consideration.
