Playing a bonder and maintaining a considerable amount of enchantments can get confusing at times when there's enemies stripping the enchants. Most of the time it's easy to tell who's been removed, but sometimes you have to hover over every single maintained enchant to try and figure out which party member is missing one.

Instead of hovering over every single maintained enchantment, I'd much rather see the number of who the enchantments are on without the need to hover over the icon. Something like this would be perfect:

This would ease the pressure off of bonders a lot. It's hard enough as it is anyway heh

I love that Idea! Just as you say, playing a bonder can get very difficult when some players loose their enchantments. There is no easy way to determine who lost theirs. The mouse over effects are too "touchy" to be useful.

Just thought I'd bump this.

Skuld · Feb 06, 2006, 01:24 PM // 13:24

I would like the enchantment im maintaining to be over the character's health bar

Undivine · Feb 06, 2006, 01:48 PM // 13:48

*Cough*

Shamelessly plugging my own thread. How pifitul. But still, it's been suggested before. If you'd like, you could bump my thread.

I like Undivine's style better. Yours could get to be a pain, especially if you life bond the ENTIRE PARTY.

Not signed, but the idea is there.

skretth · Feb 06, 2006, 03:46 PM // 15:46

still a good idea

i prefer this to them stacking on the part list.
however i think having a group on a voip server helps coz they can say what they have lost

SaintGreg · Feb 06, 2006, 04:18 PM // 16:18

What if you put an enchantment on someone who isn't in your party? Does it just default to the regular way?

You know in the game it DOES show an arrow near their name in the party window. Why not just check to see if its gone?

sure u can edit ur interface, but if a enchantment drops they all move back to one side of ur "upkeep" bar

okay so im playing a bonder..

middle of a battle
another monk has cast aegis (everyone now has a yellow arrow)
the ele who lost his bond has fire attunement up. (also a yellow arrow)

you wont always be able to tell

My idea would be for bond enchantments to be a different colored arrow on their health bar. Currently there is yellow and what a orange? So make life bond blue, life barrier green etc etc. That way you know who has a enchantment stripped and which one.

I think this is a good idea it would help out alot. Quick glance to tell you who is missing what.

Align · Feb 26, 2006, 11:45 AM // 11:45

There are too many maintained enchantments to colour code them like that... plus it'd give the enemy a lot of info with just a glance at the health bar.

LifeInfusion · Feb 26, 2006, 07:03 PM // 19:03

Bonding is a pain when every enchantment is a Up arrow. :/

I like Undivine's thread though.
