Instant Portraits

[Alltair]

It's funny watching the portrait system from the sidelines and seeing people post long winded multistep explanations like it's some kind of raid mechanic.
I figure it's not long until we see people make raid plans for the dumpster fire that is the portrait system.

I have abandoned the system. I thought the idea was neat though. If they fix it I will start using it. If they can't be bothered to see it's a problem I also won't be bothered to deal with it.

I turn visor off and on (or on and off), save gear, go to portrait and edit/save. Works every time.

That's a great tip in case I forget a step and show up in raids with no pants!

Yeah, I thought I was spared those errors when I was saving gearsets and re-editing Portraits after the smallest of changes like Materia extraction or getting a new item > saving the new set > changing away and then back to the set to reapply the Glamour Plate... Then I started getting errors at the start of instances anyway, on Jobs I hadn't even played on for a hot minute until then. This game, I swear.

so far, as long as I update the gear set.
The portrait works fine.

It is pretty easy to fix. Any change you do just update gear set then go to portrait edit/and save.

It’s annoying how often I need to edit/Save. It should update automatically to your new gear or just keep the photo from what you wore at the time of the portrait.

Other than that I do love this feature and now commend my favorite portrait each group rather than default to tank or heals, absent someone being exceptional or the most fun socially.

Something else I'd like them to do, but I don't imagine many people care about: Stop having it automatically adjust the availability @ time pips based on DST/ST. It's annoying to have to shift them.

I tend to forget to edit/save my portraits and only end up remembering when I see it in the duty I join, but I feel like they might end up implementing it eventually that it would automatically save, but idk.
