    Minor QoL suggestion with lift operators

    Any area with lifts going from one area to another, I wish it would mention which area. This is to help not load into the wrong area because trying to remember which one is like remembering which side of your car the gas cap is located.

    Example: Limsa Lominsa - when talking to the lift operator, the options would be:

    The Drowning Wench (Limsa Lominsa Upper Decks)
    Bulwark Hall (Limsa Lominsa Lower Decks)

    This is something that just will not transfer into long term memory for me, and not sure if anyone else has this problem.

    Besides Limsa Lominsa, I think only Ul'dah has a lift, though I could be wrong. This is a change that doesn't seem like it'll happen, but isn't a bad one. Here is a suggestion that might help you, and any other individuals having this issue. Now I don't know the order of the choices for the lift in Ul'dah, but if the order is as you depicted it here for Limsa, it might just be easier to remember that the top choice is the Upper Deck, and the bottom choice the Lower Deck.

    I like helping people with their Job ideas, it's fun to help them visuallize and create the job they'd like to play most. Plus I make my own too, I'll post them eventually.

    U'ldah has the same top-to-bottom arrangement if I remember correctly.

    I think they could do with renaming the "Hustings Strip" level as "Royal Promenade" because that's usually where you're headed if you're going to that level.

    Thanks for the suggestion, and I will try to use it to help me remember. I actually made sure I was at the lift in Limsa before posting this to confirm where each choice went. You are both correct with the other lift operator being in Ul'dah. Ironic thing about Ul'dah is my suggestion wouldn't help me there because I can't differentiate between Thal and Nald to save my life. I'm always porting to the wrong shard over there if trying to remember instead of confirming on my map first.

    I know it's very minor, and few players have this issue. If this was in patch notes, most players would be like, "Umm... thanks?" It's less of a hassle to just check the map instead of loading into the wrong area, but for some reason, I always like to guess.
