Nightblade's Shade ability should have a buff timer

SDKTJ

Title basically. Warden's netch has a timer, sorc's pets have a timer when their abilities are activated, necro's 2 summons have timers, even maw of the infernal has a timer.

This suggestion doesn't really matter for PC players since add-ons fix that, but it would be really nice for it to have a timer on console. It's hard to keep up all the time in longer PvE fights since it's hard to see with all the special effects. And I don't know how many times I've been screwed over in PvP because I forgot to refresh my 'oh ***' button.

I would really like to see this implemented, I doubt it would be hard to do and many console players would appreciate it.

God yes we need duration timers so much for front and back bars. Please ZOS give use timers for our skills and show both bars.

Seconded, this was just going to be a movement to give equal rights to Shade, but screw it everything needs timers on console. I would definitely go for a dynamic rotation on every class if it were the case.

Imagine if we had a timer for blockade/hail too... It would be amazing.

*sigh*

+1 Timers for front and back bar would be the first thing I would get off I played on PC, second the detailed character sheet

3rd would be a range indicator

This would be an excellent QOL change for all nightblades. We've all at some point forgotten to refresh our shade before (or thought it was recast but it wasn't) and paid for it with our lives. While it's definitely one of the many little "skill ceiling" things that make nightblades both an annoyance to play but a joy to play successfully, it's also an irritation that's otherwise artificially fabricated and serves no real purpose. It should be changed.

That said, I always just cast siphoning strikes before shade, that way if I forget the funnel reminds me that I need to recast it since they have the same effect time.

For PC you can get it via addons but yeah for base game we need it.

Also range indicator is a must. Already a hard to use ability.
