Bandages and quality of life

Post by Vitiek »

This is just a suggestion to make the quality of life for players using the Healing skill a bit better. Rather than cutting 1 individual bandage at a time from a bolt of cloth, change it such that cutting cloth with scissors to make a bandage consumes the entire stack of cloth.

I know this shard is meant to be completely era accurate, but I can't see this being anything other than a quality of life fix, as macroing cutting bandages for hours is just a time sink. Just my two cents. Thanks for reading.

And please add etheral mounts. Kthxbye. On a serious note, just macro it mate. We all macro, we all waste our time. This is the kind of thing that should never be changed. Imo if it changed I'd leave.

I'm not sure how you're relating bandages to ethereal horses, or why you'd leave over a change like that, but I guess you had a point in there somewhere. Is it really that game breaking of a change? The point I was trying to make is that it adds to more actual gameplay and less AFK macroing.

I still think bandages could be cut all at once before UOR. Maybe it was past their target date, but I know it was before UOR.

Unfortunately, this is not the case.
