Quality of life patches - When do they come?

[Blayde]

This is not a complaint thread, I am just generally curious about timelines and I havent been able to find information for the following. As much as I love Classic there are a few tiny things that I really wish were in the game, and I have seen atleast some of these on Blue (example pet window) so I know they are coming at some point, atleast I think they are?

Does anyone know, or can speculate when the following will be patched in:

1 Seeing yourself while invised (with parentheses).
2 Pet window.
3 Time left on Buffs tooltip.
4 Blue Exp bar.
5 Mana listed Current / Max in inventory window.
6 Fine Steel blacksmithing.

1 Seeing yourself while invised (with parentheses). <--- This is already in right now
2 Pet window. <-- No
3 Time left on Buffs tooltip. <-- No
4 Blue Exp bar. <--- No
5 Mana listed Current / Max in inventory window. <--- No
6 Fine Steel blacksmithing. <-- Kunark

1 Seeing yourself while invised (with parentheses).
Never (unless you cast See Invis on yourself)

Pet window.
Technically never (because it was technically added post-classic, but only shortly post-classic so the staff let it stay on Blue). Green may get it at the end, but likely won't.

3 Time left on Buffs tooltip.
Never (use GINA)

4 Blue Exp bar.
5 Mana listed Current / Max in inventory window.
Not sure about these UI ones.

6 Fine Steel blacksmithing.
Not sure about this one either, but there have been a bajillion threads about it so you should be able to find the answer in one of them.

I thought 4 and 5 come in sometime in Velious??

[zaneosak]

4 and 5 are UI improvements that should come once the Velious UI comes along with the extra hot bar buttons.

I don't think we got a mana value in inventory until like... LoY or LDoN. My memory could be wrong, but I very vividly remember having to guess my mana total well past PoP. Given how classic they're trying to keep it on Green, I find it quite unlikely we'll ever get our mana total in inventory during the lifetime of the server.

Would love to be wrong, though.

I only ever played live classic and kunark (and a tiny bit of velious) and I remember loving when they put in the blue exp bar. So off the top of my heads I'd say blue exp bar is 100% in scope for the timeline.

My memory puts it well before velious but my memory is also pretty crap to be honest

blue xp bar comes with kunark

1 Seeing yourself while invised (with parentheses).

Nearly every class with invisibility gets See Invis. You can also ask other players for that buff. Perhaps the most notable exception is the rogue, but there are several items in the game (not easy to obtain) that grant see invis (see Wiki).

iirc, Fine Plate comes in during Kunark, at some time after epics

Yes

I clearly remember during kunark the blue line on the experience bar. I am 100% certain of this because I never played after velious on live.

I have been wondering all along where the blue line was. I would love this feature as it helps me understand when i am getting good exp vs. not.

[Bigsham]

your not getting good exp

One of the best lil toys a rogue can have, even cast on others. Get there quick when Kunark opens 'cause you can bet it'll be camp city for awhile.

4 Blue Exp bar.


The exp bar that shows up when you interact with your class trainer actually still has this. Not convenient while in the field, but it's there.
