Very simple update that will basically simplify everything that Anet simply hasn't done for no reason at all.

1st thing: When removing or putting stuff INTO storage(that can be in stacks), why not let us choose how much quantity like when you trade w/ someone or drop something? You don't always wanna remove the entire stack or give it all up. Its very silly how this hasn't been done at all.

Edit by Faer 02/13/2007: The above suggestion has since been implemented into the game. In addition, all members should please try to remember that only one suggestion is allowed per thread.

2nd: When grouping, please allow the leader to be able to sort out the placings. Most organized groups love to have the monks in the last spots so they can have an easier time w/ clicking the names for heals. All it is being asked is simply a click and drag method to sort out the order placings.

There is simply no negativity out of this.

I was thinking of the same thing. When i trade ectos i have to drag the whole bulk and then selling only a couple

And with the grouping i also agree, ive lost soo many monks over the past 2-3 months in Heros Ascent.

Not just the leader, anyone should be able to sort placings (for themselves only). A monk might want his party window to display his team-mates differently than a warrior on the same team, why do we have to share a party display ?

That might work in pve, but it would be disasterous in pvp. When I say "5 needs bond" over vent (where 5 refers to my spot in the party list), then the monk wouldn't know who to heal.

Disasterous ? I think you're being too pessimistic. If you're playing organised PvP, it should be simple enough to tell everyone not to fubar their party window.

Have thought about both of those things and it's pretty silly that they don't. I hate having to bring 79 candy canes with me if I only want 2.

I'd have to agree with both ideas. And your right, why the heck haven't they been implemented yet?

I mean the group one is good! Its annoying when you get a whole party together, then the leader has to kick people just to get everyone into some kind of magic order.

A.net implement these ideas!

Both points are needed. I have lost three necros and 2 monks in ToPK in the last two days due to the leader not saying he was reordering the group. Kicked the necro
reinvite the necro
tell the necro to accept invite and explain we were just reordering group

Why not let anyone change the party order? Sometimes monks make parties too. I think the leader should be indicated by a crown or something next to their name, not necisarily first slot.

I would think that if the party leader could change the order, then they should be able to move themselves as well. The crown idea (or any other type of marker) is a great idea.

If your necro yells at you for re-ordering in tombs, I'm not sure you want him in your group anyway.

/Signed even a simple Shift + Click and Drag to do the split.

rearranging the group list would help out a lot. as it is the leader has to kick and reinvite people to get the list right.. I would say let each player change the list to their prefrence, but would make it harder on the monks and enchantments.. so /Signed if it's only the leader can change the ordering.

The purpose of a shared party is for quicker communication. Saying something like "Blood is Power on 8" is easier than saying "Blood is Power on Ima Monk" plus it needs a set up to display to other players in PvP/Observer.

party list reordering
/signed if its only the party leader that can do that. Though you have to wounder why your party list gets scrambled when you enter FoW

Stack splitting
/not signed because the only time I've wanted to use it was to save orrian tablet shards so I could use them on another character without redoing the quest (getting reward makes you lose all of them). So I can't see a reason for it, other than exploiting various things.

WTF? you're the only one exploiting anything here and you don't want stack splitting cause there could be more exploits? BS, I would like to give 1 dyes to my other chars or craft mats w/o having to give stacks, nothing abusive about that, only some people can think of abuse from something so convenient.

simple implementation and very little coding involved I would think. All in all it's cost effective, convenient, and above all else it's not a self serving idea like a lot of suggestions on here.

You've never had someone who wanted just one steel ingot? Or just 120 out of 250 ectos? I see no possible exploits from this, at least not any that really matter anyway. Quests like the orrian shard tablets aren't exploits that really matter.

Heightened state of mind.

P/W

I realy don't see the significance of being able to remove or store specified amounts of materials in your storage. It is a complex addition to a very simple proccess, just put whats left over back into your storage. Did that break your arm? Maybe something so insignificant is important to some though.....

I can agree with being able to sort party order and leader though, it is a pain in the ass to have players leave and rejoin a team, expecially if they are impacient players who will probably leave some time during the mission instead of finding another party while reordering, if you could reorganize without dropping players/leaving the party.

/almost half signed

More tools for the impacient < significant improvements for the game.
