    Request: Please develop displayable mount icons

    Title.

    Many times I've wondered what cool mount someone is using but have no way of knowing unless I /tell them.

    IMHO this should have been standard since day one, but it can be developed now.

    It might even drive some folks to the cash shop to buy them (shameless pandering to get it developed).

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    WoW and a few other games do this and it makes it super easy to see what mount it is and then you can go look it up and hunt it down. o/

    Agreed! I'm coming from WoW after 11.5 years in that game, and it would be wonderful if I could immediately be able to know which cool mounts I'm seeing. I don't like to bother people, so sending tells to ask isn't my first thought. (Especially since I've been so used to mousing over to see what the other person is riding.)

    Well its not the only way. You can go on the lodestone page and character search and put the name of player. and click on the mount tap

    A little too convoluted when it'd be easier to just add a way to see the mount when examining the player while they're mounted, tbh.

    Though how much work that would take is what determines if we'd ever get something that is ( realistically ) very basic.

    I was just pointing out the other way. but ofc i would like to have easier way to see what mount people are using.
