    Is there a way to ZOOM OUT more?

    Well so, I play as a tank in Susano EX, in the second phase Susano should be tanked at north, the other players with purple mark will go either side of the line on the floor, well it's difficult to see who has the purple mark (so that I could decide on which side to move the boss) because I stand at the north, I can only see half of the arena when zoomed out THE MOST, so I can't see the entire party.
    I play on PC and I can't zoom further than that. Can anyone help?

    I generally always tanked him about 3/4 of the way up the left side of the centre crack with susano having like 1 foot in the crack

    It gives you a lot more wiggle room for the "reisen kikoyo" circles and other such stuff. and also allows any melee to stay in range if they have to cross the lightning markers.

    often also means depending on the position it's possible for whoevers marked to shoot that big purple line almost complete out of the arena as you can clip it right across the edge and out..

    if you tank him right at the north edge you don't seem to give melee much room to move at all even less if the purple lines get in the way.

    can also zoom out quite a bit more if you don't use lock on. and for some reaosnsetting a slightly higher camera angle sometimes allows you to pull the camera back further.

    Zoom limit can be indeed annoying.
    I find it most problematic on OS2, where it can be hard to pan camera in such a way as to properly see all 4 stalks with eyes (to know which eye disappeared and where safe zone will be).

    Since FF is both PC and PS4, I do not think any script will allow you to zoom out more then default settings allow.
