As a mage main, It simply just makes the game less fun. I of course can figure some way to work around everything. I need 3 hotkeys for pet commands at all times, while having access to at least 3 of my spells. That leaves 2 keys for macros or clickies, which need to be up at all times. Ring 9 and Jboot. Sure, i can shift through sets, but i st ill need all those keys, and its constant switching just to post "Malisini landed on %t" etc. This forces us to rely more on discord, which is not classic, if you want to look at it that way.

I just do not think the quality of life UI and Pet window changes are prudent. I'm not asking for AA's.

Wait til its just 6 hotkeys and only 1 hot bar. I guess you might have to break your wrist and click page 2.

All of the macro text so commonly used today might have to go as well.. dear lord what will we do?. If everyone doesn't know exactly what is going on at all times how will we calculator math what should be done next?

Also 1 chat box.

I like the pet window. It felt normal and organic, like sheet music for a pianist.

If the game really wanted to be immersive, then get rid of the party window. Now you can only target people in visual range (makes sense) and healers have to watch the field in order to see who needs help, or people need to communicate it.

I wish there was some way to block people from using voice chat. Very unimmersive!

Why does a mage need a Ring 9?
