    Request: Search for Claimed Orchestrion Roll Feature

    With all the music in the game it can be very hard to keep track of which piece you have and which you need. With some content dropping up to four rolls, it would be nice to have a see if you already have the music so you know if you can pass on it (if you desire), or whether it's something to needs to be added to the collection.

    When you have lag, every action is an adventure.

    Orchestion list does have a search function which allows you to see which rolls you have and don't have. You'd need to mark to display rolls that have or haven't been obtained.

    You're talking about seeing if you have it while rolling on loot in duties and the like?

    Q: Please make it easier to tell if we already own a certain minion, orchestrion roll, or Triple Triad card when they drop as rewards or are displayed on the market board!

    Yoshida: I’d like to answer this one, since it isn’t limited to UI. At the moment, this would be difficult to handle on the server side. Your character save data, including data on whether or not you own a certain item, is stored on a database server. In order to check whether you own a certain minion, for example, would require interacting with this database server. If we multiply this by several tens of thousands of players doing this simultaneously, this would put an unimaginable amount of strain on the database server.

    Another possible method would be to store this item possession status as local data on the client side, which would be your computer or PS4. However, since FFXIV has an immense number of items which will only continue to increase, this method would affect memory usage and is unrealistic as well.

    You can search in the orchestrion roll window, but it means navigating to it and opening it, which takes some time when you just want to click the need or none buttons.
