Some suggestions, mostly quality of life, obvious things

[Matsume]

I’m back again! But this time for responses regarding some requests and comments about market board feature.



The search feature for the market boards have been structured in a simple way that allow you to search by category and by name. While there may be a concern about finding the item you need when we add items, we will be increasing the number of categories so that the search becomes easier.



We will try and look into implementation of this by making a “favorites” category where you can register items.



We do not have any plans to expand this feature to support multiple item searches or an “or” search feature. We appreciate your understanding.

I would love to see the implementation of a favorites category myself. Perhaps you can design this option with the Gear Sets in mind such that we can make "Favorite Item Sets" with which to monitor prices. For example, I have all the DoH at level 50, and I would love a list of "favorite" items that i can monitor for my culinarian such as ingredients and the price of foods. However, I wouldn't mind having a set of "favorites" for my weaver that allows me to monitor the price or supply of clothcraft componenets and items.

Would it be possible to fix the market board such that when you Free Search the term "militia" all of the militia gear appears? Currently all that I can get to appear are the militia bracelets, wristlets, earrings, choker, belt, robe, ringbands, mitt gauntlets, duckbills, caligae, sabatons, gauntlents and 1.0 items from hamlet. In other words half the militia items are missing from the Free Search and I dont believe there is a second page.

Another market ward improvement would be the ability to search by item level rather than levels 1-50. The key to this would be to make it possible to select "Armor" in general, and a class and item level as variables, rather than having to currently select an armor type, class and level. The importance of this is for example the ability to display all and only item level 55 and higher gear for a specific class. Example: I'm looking to gear out my whitemage or just do some light spiritbonding. I want militia and / or vanya gear for my whm. Currently I need to either search every category of gear individually for each piece of gear. However, in my suggestion, I would simply select the white mage class option, set level to 55-70 and search and in theory it would display all the pieces of gear a whm can equip in those level ranges.

I know this may not be the place and I'm sorry to get off topic but I believe you may be one of the Devs and I was wondering when you guys were going to address the billing issue and fix the mog station? I don't know if you guys are in charge of this or not, but could you please tell your partners and SE to address this issue?

I've got one to add. When using a controller and accessing the market board I have to click the category, and then hit down multiple times until I can highlight the search button. Could we perhaps have a toggle or change that makes it so that it searched when I select the category so that I don't have to scroll up and down so often when using the AH?

PS3 player here. Not very sure if it works for PC controller players but after choosing the category, press square and the menu will pop.

It might be a simple request, but I would like to see the Sending and receiving icon to show red - yellow- green depending on Connection strength. Or if not perhaps the wifi signal bars to change depending on connection strength. It might already do it and I just haven't noticed though.

A feature that allows you to see Text Bubbles above a playable character would be nice. Since no one looks at the chat log, and I am tired of ripping out my hair because people are too occupied looking at the graphical madness and seem to lack the ability to stare at a chat log when they're spamming all their abilities... NPCs have text bubbles, can we just replicate this? I'm sure there will be PS3 limitations, but why not have a toggle button to turn the bubbles on/off if we're seeing bottleneck issues with PS3 memory? At the very least make it a PS4/PC feature.

I want to know if mapping a full combo to a single button on the cross-hotbar will be possible in 2.1. During beta I remember reading in the incoming features that this would be added soon after launch. It would be nice on the normal hotbar too, and would free a lot of space.

Example: For GLA you map "Fast Blade" to R2+Circle, and after that you can choose either "Savage Blade" or "Riot Blade" as the follow-up skill, and if you pick "Savage Blade", you can set "Rage of Halone" as the third and so on, if combos should get any longer. If "Fast Blade" is successful it will change to the follow-up you chose until the combo bonus wears off, at which point it will revert to "Fast Blade". In this case, if "Savage Blade" misses, it reverts to "Fast Blade" because the combo bonus wore off but if it lands, It continues into "Rage of Halone" ending your combo. Any action that would end your combo bonus should revert the button back to the starter, or in this case, "Fast Blade".

I don't know if I should put this here or if it's even an error.

It's about the Militia armor (lv 55) which uses. Hippogryph leather and the result the armor looks like this:



Mind you it's not the complete armor but by the pattern it is made of Coeurl leahter which is only used the MNK/PGL Gryphoskin armor.

My question is: Is it an error on the recipe? Because that would mean Coeurl Leather has more uses.

When the thief class comes out it should not have the job of a ninja, Ninja's are highly trained speed/stealth killers not some petty thief.

The ninja's class/job branch should be something like this, ninja is the base class then at lvl 30 plus a lvl 15 archer it then has the job of an assassin.

The thief class/job branch should be something like this, base class should be ether treasure hunter or bandit then at lvl 30 plus a lvl 15 ninja it then has the job of a thief.

While an interesting point, the militia gear was in 1.0 long before a recipe existed for it.

They probably kept the recipe simple enough to be easy to make for entry-level 50 content, and didn't think altering the texture was a priority.

A few things that i think would help improve the game and make more people in joy it more are, When as a Scholar be able to target a party member and hit obey making the pet use only its first skill. Having to always target an enemy mob to hit obey on the fairy is annoying not to mention that it still uses its abilities with out being told to. Another thing that would be helpful is to have a level sync outside of fates. By having one out side of fates you can have other party members that have higher job's sync down to your level while partying with them.
