Quality-of-Life Requests and Suggestions (New for 2024)

[Kitty.4806]

Please, I need to disable whispers from NPCs

It's literally driving me insane.

[Noidea Incognito.9607]

People might have suggested this already;

A template system for Wardrobe sets. (the ability to swap various wardrobe sets for 1 armor).

A template system for character creator ( it stores saved templates in case you wanna load it for a new character)

And a more "exotic" suggestion:

ability to determine yourself what you wanna autoloot (toggle on/off boxes for various rarities/materials the aoe autoloot needs to pickup)

Example; say you wanna have certain Tier material but dont want the ascended stuff. with a few toggles the player gets the stuff they need without the inventory becoming cluttered with stuff they dont need.

+1H swords that mount on the back for short races (or tilt their hip mount further toward horizontal). Almost all the swords available to my Asura clip through the floor so badly I don't even consider using them.

[KaozeL.6431]

SQUAD (10 PLAYERS) to have the ability at "View as greed" checkbox to see all 10 players and NOT only the 5 players.

As commander and buffer specially  i struggle much all time swapping in and out in phases just to see the squad and the subgroup same time.

The exp output from meta events in SoTO, especially in Nayos is abyssmally low. it's about 26k for every event inside the meta. Compared to other expansions events that's incredibly low.

i would like teleport skills to work on decorations in the guild hall.

currently when i place a racetrack on existing ground i can use teleports on it, but when placing it into the air i can not use teleport skills while on it to another place on it (no valid path). 
additionally if we could snap together decorations when placing so that teleports would work over two racetracks in a row would be nice.

aside from races it would be useful for building a custom arena.

[Yer.8096]

We could have a small info when or if "snap ground target" is on. Maybe just a small text just when we change...

1) Backpacks should be visible during emotes

2) Some way to spend plenty of  Eternal Ice Shards without consuming lots of gold or karma together

[Isopod.4156]

I'm sure this has been suggested a million times before but please let us apply skins from different armor types onto others the medium armor feather hat is so adorable on charr but only medium armor classes get to have that joy. Same with the body armor I'm not a fan of clunky heavy armor but too bad that's it for heavy armor users. The whole point of a skin system is to let people dress up their character how they want and I want all my charr to look like they walked out of a western movie, not just the medium armor class ones (and I dont like theif and struggle with engi so only my ranger gets ir)

The Casino Blitz / Pinata meta has way more leechers and AFKers than people actually doing the events. Simple thing: rewards should be based on participation. Every coin event should carry more rewards on their own but also contribute to the pinata reward. No event participation? No bonus loot for pinata.

Anet could do something goodevil and make it so exchanging an absolutely unholy number of casino coins gives you a guaranteed infusion, or ectos or something of halfway decent value beyond the green unid gear after you unlock all the cosmetics.

Piñata's preevents kind of suck because there is 0 reason or incentive to overachieve on them. No matter what you do, it's five minutes of waiting per round with no change to loot odds whether you clear the goal by 1 or 1000. 😞

The simplest solution would be to add a second Crystal Oasis: Hero's Choice Chest per account, per day to the coin rewards vendor. For an amount of coins you can obtain if you actively participate in all rounds and do the side-events. So it is possible to get two chests in a single meta, but you can also play a little more casually and get a second chest every few metas.

Bag of Educational Supplies: replace the Tome of Mentorship drop with a Tome of Knowledge.

1) I would like a way to spend festival-specific currency outside of the festival period.  Things like baubles, taffys, christmas gifts, etc.  They accrue over time due to home instance node harvesting and clog up the bank.

2) Instead of having to manually harvest home instance nodes, I would like all the resources delivered at once similar to that of black lion expedition boxes.  It's tedious to go through this monotonous process to harvest every node in the home instance every day. 

[Tura.6503]

NPC Elisabet Kardijn in Hoelbrak. Please move her away from the bank. Her repetitive dialogue of "Are your hunts dissatisfying,,,,,,," is extremely annoying.

[Tinker.6924]

Would love for anet to move each of the "Show all xyz Names" in the UI Options to be in the Dynamic hud options giving us the ability to Show them out of combat, but hide them in combat where (IMO at least) they create visual clutter and detract from clearly seeing enemy mechanics.

For 1 go check the big skritt cave in northwest lions arch mate.

As rhe pets increase, its becomig ever more difficult to select them, because you keep extending the table downwards, we don't all off large screens!. I'm always having to move the pet management up to the top of the screen as it doesnt defuakt to there, otherwise the pets show up below rhe screen.

Please, move rhe table so  that its 8 across,  instead of 6, this will reduce the rows down by 3, making it much easier to see!

As you can see from the photo, Ive moved the pet management up as far as it will go. (and no, I don't want rhe resolution any smaller..), on my old laptop, I cant even see the bottom row of pets!)

[Zera.9435]

An epic collection/quest/achievement that lets us earn a clover patch for our home instance that will let us gather a mystic clover once per week.

[SoulTermination.2764]

Please, I'm begging you, let us change the colors of "bad stuff you don't want to stand in". The orange and red blends into each other for me and I end up getting killed because I can't tell there's a second AoE about to go off layered underneath the one I just dodged. I'd die a lot less if I could change the colors to something my brain can untangle better! 😞

[SirDoNKeY.4578]

I don't know if this has been suggested already but could we please get a waypoint directly to the Special Forces Training Area, and allow mounting or apply a permanent swiftness boon.

[Dean Calaway.9718]

All I want for this coming Wintersday is client side option to turn off auras, particles and trinket effects. I'm sure your very proud of your glitter and bubbles, they're amazing bubbles, and the best glitter, but I could do without several dozen of bubbles in group events.

[Liewec.2896]

recently a bunch of new action camera crosshairs were added, this is great because it is the only way i play!

but what suprised me was that there wasn't a "blank" or invisible crosshair option!

any chance of getting an invisible crosshair option for action cam?

(in other words the ability to turn off the crosshair)

[Yer.8096]

I'm sure people already talked a lot about that, but I'll say again... Pleeeeeasse! Disable iterable itens on chests region, like portal and other things. Portals specially... I'm good with that, but I saw a guy being teleported to a map portal (so he was teleported to another map) and loose ALL rewards from our event.

I always wait to use chests to confirm the correct texts appears... but portals can be put at the right time and its soooo annoying to being focused on that. This is a quality life thing!

[RazieL.5684]

i would like to see the number of mails to be increased... for example in wow every single character has it's own mail list and you can have many characters per account... this game has a single mailbox for all the characters so this is already a huge amount lower mails that you can have in your mailbox... can we please have this amount increased a tad bit? like to 30 maybe?
