Finally I won't have to waste MP on esuna/leeches/exalted detriment for something I cant actually remove....

And talking to npc's while mounted is a god-send, thank you! (Turns out its Auto-dismount function when clicking on npc... still cool and still useful though!)

I didn't think that was talking to NPCs while mounted, rather while flying if you click on them the game auto-lands and auto-dismounts you.

Yeah, I don't see anything about remaining mounted, but that if you are in the air it will automatically land you and do the interaction as usual.

Boo.. yeah I mis-read that.
Even so, I'll take that auto-dismount. The less fumbling around I do the better

I still like a lot of that QoL though . Hoping we can get abilities to auto-dismount us sometimes too, a lot of the time when you're running in the world it'll be nice to quickly send a heal/protect/stoneskin to someone without having to dismount first.

It's nice that they're adding the Esuna thing though. I often find myself casting it multiple times on party members before I realize it won't come off lol

Wait.... I can return from duty ans still be seated :O

Exactly, right? I don't understand when was this ever an issue for people?

"OMFG I don't want to quit this duty, after exiting I will no longer be sitting down, oh god ... why has thou forsaken me!?" *shaking fist at the clouds*

In all honesty though, I think they needed to have this implemented for the swimming portion of the SB, they couldn't fix a bug and added this in but they give it to us as a sort of a new bonus for us.

I want something I'm fairly certain to never see: a 50% (minimum) reduction in the number of skills per char. My SMN has over 50 skills. It's nice that I can drag more things to the hotbar, but uh, just which of the skills I have buttoned now am I supposed to give up in order to make space for these new dragged buttons?

A completely fresh and new UI when entering pvp would help a lot (the same way you get a new bar-set when changing jobs); that would mean I could toss out all the non-pvp skills and vice-versa depending on game type -- that removes at least 6 skills per job for pve and prolly a bit less for pvp.

Ah, well, their statement that they weren't increasing skill count in SB shows that someone over there is at least minimally aware of the UI issue with too many skills.
