Quality of Life Addition Wishlist

Gray_howling_parrot

While there have been other threads that have suggested adding big systems to the game, bringing in things from other MMOs, etc. I wanted to make a list that only encompassed quality of life additions that (as far as I know) wouldn't severely tax server performance and would be *relatively?* easy to implement. I'd love to see what other people come up with! Also - I play on console, so I'm most likely asking for things that some addons may cover, but nonetheless that i'd like to see implemented across all platforms.

1. An option in the guild trader menu to filter motifs, recipes, etc to "unknown only."
2. An outfit option to hide every slot if we want (hide shoulders, hide chest, hide gloves)
3. An outfit option to hide "appearances" (I.e. guild tabards)
4. Double the seals of endeavors earned from daily & weekly challenges to make up time a bit and make the system (arguably made just for legal reasons) more player friendly
5. A ****NORMAL**** trial group finder (NOT veteran)
6. An option to change positioning of health/magicka/stamina bars to vertical (or stacked) rather than horizontal
7. Add mundus stones to the armory system
8. Make motifs (achievements) account-wide
9. Making mount training account wide (if it's going to take 180 days, whatever, but at least make it account-wide for the love of god)
10. Change the uncracked transmutation geode count (gold geode) from 4-25 to 10-25
11. Take away the nonsense of having to recreate the pet in in-game events each time prior to morphing into a skin/mount/personality/house (so dumb)
12. A mount collector's guide & counter (just for fun i'd like to see how many mounts I have in each category versus those that have been put in the game at some point as well as a description of which crown crates, events, etc that they were available during) --> same for pets
13. Take away super powerful racial passives - by this, I mean i'd rather races be largely cosmetic (take away stamina, weapon damage, spell power, magicka, etc and keep things like argonian swim speed, orc sprint speed, mastery with weapon skill lines, etc.)
14. Add a minimap
15. Add regular awards for subscribing to ESO plus for certain periods of time (first month, no rewards but month 2 in a row you get a pet, month 3 a personality, month 6 a mount, month 9 a free apex mount, month 12 a free radiant apex mount) --> I may be speaking for myself? The tiny baby statues that we get for free are dumb

I will eat my shorts if several of these ever get put into the game.

Mundus Stones
Motifs
Mount Training
Racial Passives

Because all 4 of these have "paid" options in the crown store, no way they'll cut into those profits.

Not that I wouldn't possibly agree with them... it just ain't gonna happen.

@tmbrinks that first line made me cackle

katanagirl1

Item #1 (guild filter for unknown) on your list would be extremely helpful.

#14 minimap would be a nice option too.

Frogmother

Sort style materials by amount
Minimap only if it's optional

ectoplasmicninja

At this point I would like a search option for my pets. I can't tell you how many times I've scrolled through them looking for a mudcrab or a fox or something but not remembering the exact name and been completely unable to find it. And can I get a search option for markings too?

I would also like proper categorization and more layers for cosmetics. I suppose eyelashes are technically facial hair but they shouldn't be. Oracle eyes definitely shouldn't be facial hair. Antlers shouldn't be facial hair. Eye colour needs its own category now that we have oracle, Spiderkith, Darloc Brae, purple, blue, etc. Makeup and scars should be separate. And some eyeshadows shouldn't overwrite parts of my eyebrows, please have a little more faith in my character's ability to apply makeup.

1. Revamp Cyrodiil groups to be more like battlefield with objectives and click to join.

Lumenn

Mini map
Jewelry hireling

I would love this. An almost-FPS approach to cyrodiil would be interesting with your NPC generals and commanders giving you specific objectives. I’d really enjoy cyrodiil (obviously outside of performance) having areas be almost closed off to funnel players into certain objective areas or when enemy players attack a fortress having almost an instanced gameplay option of attack and defend

Yea, again, it’s a wishlist and quality of life list not necessarily something they’ll 100% put in the game. I assume by Mundus stones being in the store you mean furnishings? A majority of players aren’t buying these anyways. We also have in game crafting stations for deconstruction that you can earn but you can still buy a deconstruction assistant. Just because it has a crown store presence doesn’t mean there cant be an in game option too

Starlight_Knight

Add combat pet skins and a salon to the list also more guild uses would be good.

Giraffon

I support these:

2. An outfit option to hide every slot if we want (hide shoulders, hide chest, hide gloves)
5. A ****NORMAL**** trial group finder (NOT veteran)
7. Add mundus stones to the armory system
9. Making mount training account wide (if it's going to take 180 days, whatever, but at least make it account-wide for the love of god)
10. Change the uncracked transmutation geode count (gold geode) from 4-25 to 10-25

Especially item 5. There are other heated forum threads on this but why this is even controversial is beyond my comprehension.

Lixiviant

A biggie for me is to have "Recipe Known" at the top of the recipe, instead of making me scroll down, after the ingredients, to see if I know it or not. This is for when I'm looking in the Guild Bank for new recipes.

Or just add a filter for these.

AND, if one of my characters gets a daily reward, please don't bind it to that character. Just bind it to the account.

whitecrow

Being able to change banker function (bank/guild bank/guild store) without having to leave the banker each time would be great.

I would like to see the pets re-categorized. Why are they different than the mounts? Flying pets is pretty self-explanatory, but sometimes the difference between domestic and exotic is a bit grey. Give us felines/canines/crustaceans, etc.

I'd like that someday, in a near future, we can get:
- The ability to fillet fish in stacks, as it happens with refinement. Its PAINFUL to fillet fish one by one.
- An option to hide the shoulders piece, since the majority of the shoulders pieces don't fit properly to the chars.
- Jewelry and alchemy hirelings.

Why can't we fillet them in the cooking crafting station like other mats that need to be refined. Makes sense to me.

QoL improvements that also reduce database footprint

Category account wide
-> we are on this route anyways, so let's follow this path in all consequence
- mount training
- motif and recipe knowledge (everybody is master crafter now with a couple of toons that learn the basic blue motif styles...)
- game settings (I don't get why things like chat text colours or key allocation are char specific, it's a chore to re-set everything manually when a new toon is created)
- purchase of outfit and armoury slots
- everything for companions that is not yet AW, eg. rapport

Category play when you want (or when you have time to play)
-> no more time stamp per char in the database, just done y/n flag, but still char specific
- daily reset for everything one a 24h-timer or less, incl random dungeons, BGs, mount training, motif from zone daily coffers, etc.
- weekly reset for trial coffers, for instance when weekly trail/arena is changed

Category misc
- reduce the achievement bloat, eg. I don't get why 2 DLC dungeons need to have over 40 achievements

Jaimeh

The voice of @BenevolentBowd can be heard the distance saying 'stackable treasure maps!'

Also, as mentioned above, having the option to filter trade guild results with 'unknown' would help a lot when buying motifs and recipes.

RedFireDisco

Trait crafting. Let us change trait 2-4 on armor using some transmute-like system.

So, I can "play my way".

BalticBlues

I really just want the same one - for years:

SURVEY FIX or SURVEY ASSISTANT
for not having to ride back and forth to collect more than one survey.

Smoky

Love them all except 9 & 13 (but thats just personal taste I wouldn't be upset if they did them but prefer it the way it is now)

Even if they only did 2 or 3 QOL additions it would be nice, most important for me would be the Mini map by a long, long way!

Well, looks like I gotta find a way to make shorts edible

Mundus Stones are being added to the armory next chapter.

Salt and Pepper? Garlicky? Creole? What sounds the best? :P

Cajun - give it a bit of spice! I'm so happy to see the Mundus in the armory!

Furnishing " recipes " ( blueprints, diagrams, etc. ) : Please add the sub category that the item belongs in - library, suite - to the actual page that you learn it from along with the existing type of production - blacksmith, woodwork.

For some items it may be very obvious, but for others it can be a real pain to learn it, then have to scroll thru a long list of known items to find the one you have just acquired. Is it in the Parlour, the Suite or ?

A simple addition to the info page that will save a lot of scrolling each and every time.

EnerG

Mundus is commimg to armory tho.

Sidereum

I really really really really want hide shoulders. I want it so much.

Bat

Fix DK gap closers.

Paralyse

Support:

#1 through #4, #9 through #12, #14

Oppose:
#5 (please, no), #8 (would ruin the prices of motif style pages overnight), #13 (this game is already too homogenized with forced hybridization and cookie-cutter builds), #15 (subscribers already get rewarded with craft bag, 10% exp, and free stuff)

Don't care:
#6, #10

#7 (Mundus) is already coming out soon

Paralyse

I would add "stackable glyphs in the bank" to your list and "ability to reposition on screen the elements of the default UI"

AcadianPaladin

I agree with almost all the OPs ideas as good recommendations.

Regarding mount training, a less aggressive option to account wide training would be to allow the training of all three disciplines once a day (reducing total training time from 180 to 60 days).

More skins for warden bears since the system to do so is fully in place with just the one lonely gray option.

Fix the butt on the Timbercrow Wanderer costume. This otherwise adorable costume is too expensive (in blood or treasure) to leave it so marred/bugged.
