its a great idea.. the only problem with it being thoose who have custome interfaces..
i have my all diff to standard, and with my party list in teh bottom left, and my skill bar vertically next to it for quick casting there is no space to see if they are enchanted
and if a icon came up for each enchant imagine the chaos for ageis, guardian, reversal, viel, etc. each time they went up and down.

No no... just maintained enchantments. Aegis does not currently show up next to your bonds where you double-click to remove, does it? I'm not talking about all enchantments. Just the ones that require energy regen upkeep.

Thanks a lot Kabale!

As long as it's sticking out and not covering anything up, it's well worth doing it that way than the current way.

Besides, they could make it optional.

skretth · Feb 08, 2006, 12:14 AM // 00:14

i dont really see how it can be made optional.. even still 5 or 6 enchantments sticking out fromt eh side of a player even on teh smallest interface setting still sticks out a distance

Too hard with this:

"Do I have to bond with him or him

"

What also would be nice to see your team mates energy bar as well. :l Cause, there are times that monks are drained due to poor energy management or just Energy Denial. People need to know that when monks have no energy they can't heal. O___O!

But yeah, I often find times when bonding, I end up casting bonding the wrong person because I hate rescrolling through my maintaining boxes. :L

That's got to be the longest and most unique "/signed" I've seen on this forum.

Yeah, I waste mana sometimes just recasting bond on a person who already has it. That's why this is sorely needed.

I made a little more detailed mockup. The icons would overlap a bit but you can still tell what they are easily.

Esprit · Feb 10, 2006, 05:40 PM // 17:40

The problem with putting enchant icons with the party, is that you start running into cosmetic issues, when you multiple 4 bonds on one person. It starts looking cluttered.

But I still would like some indication of what bonds have been removed, so that I can reapply. And removing bonds manually IS a little time consuming.

I might suggest an Enchantment panel, that can be toggled like the Mini-Map, Inventory, Friends List, etc... You could toggle a box that gives you a list of players that have enchantments on them. It would have rather limited functionality, as most classes really don't have that many enchantments they can cast on other players. But it would solve any clutter issues you might have.

RandomEngy · Feb 10, 2006, 06:39 PM // 18:39

I don't think it would look cluttered even with 4 maintained enchantments on one person. And that's an extreme case: half your skillbar and all of your energy regen on one person. And if you're going that much out of your way for maintained enchantments, I think those icons would be more "useful information" than "clutter" to you. In any case it would certainly be less clutter than an "enchantment interface" or a bunch of messages in the chat window.

Undivine · Feb 11, 2006, 03:54 AM // 03:54

I also want to point out that Watchful Spirit can be an awesome spell to use, but only with a better enchantment GUI. I used it in Tombs UW a while back and it was pretty nice, I just had trouble trying to keep track of which ones to removed to create the heal effect.

Ah, then there's Holy Veil, same thing.

Great idea.. as long as it is only for maintained enchantments. The idea is that you aren't gaining any information that you didn't have before, it is only laid out in a more intuitive fasion.

I like your photoshopping... it's exactly what is needed.
