Console QOL

On console there is a consistent dialog about things missing in the game that PC players will either get in the base game or they get by addons. Of course I know console not having addons is not a zos issue but rather a Sony/Microsoft issue, but there are still many things in console players eyes that need to get implemented. From talking to other players on PS4 these are the things that most people want access to that are fairly big QOL changes.

1) Inventory Search - Although searching across all characters would be really nice I think that would be pushing it for ZOS to implement. But scrolling manually through your bank for the five pieces of one set is a major inconvenience. This would be really easy to implement as a search function is already in the game when using guild traders.

2) Inventory Quick Change - I believe the addon for PC is called dressing room. One of the major issues of godslayer on console is the time allotted to complete. With the ability to change gear sets and skill loadouts fast this time may be more achievable for groups. Because of not being able to change quickly between gear for trash and bosses it really hinders speed runs comparing to the PC times. This would also help promote players to switch to between pvp and pve as it is not a long drawn out task of swapping just to do a quick battleground. From people I have talked to about this, everyone seems to be willing to even pay for an assistant in the crown store that does this.

3) Global Trader Search - I know this one may be a bit of a long shot but it would be really nice to be able to search for a specific item for all guild traders instead of going around to every single one to find something you are looking for. This would also drive market prices for materials down as you could quickly see where the lowest cost is.

I realize there is more but these seem to be the common ones I hear console players talking about. I wouldn't be surprised if they never get implemented but one can hope. I don't know if anyone else has some of the addons that would be a huge improvement for the console players.

    I was going to mention combat metrics but it must have slipped my mind! It is insane that console doesn't have it since I believe it is a base game feature on PC.

    All of these things. Guild trader search and multi-crafting were steps in the right direction, please keep going. For my sanity and controller button longevity.

    IMO this should become part of the built in UI, included mini map. Almost everyone adds them. Why not take the most popular add ons and look at what could make the game more modern and what most MMOers look for in a UI and just add toggles to let people turn them on and off.

    Can we please multi-filet fish stacks? Like how we can now (wonderfully and mercifully) multi-refine stacks of raw crafting materials?
