which means only 6 enchantments maintained on any 1 person, which imho can fit on a bar below teh party members name or w/e to see whats on them.

*shrugs* its 1am and im rambling.
Honestly I don't understand your reply...
May be my English is too poor, sorry about this.
The point is not how or how many enchants keep on one or more players, but the way in which this enchants are viewed from the bonder in his GW interface...
I have posted my images just to explain this, I put enchants in the "desired interface" just for example, in fact they are more than the enchants that you can see in the real image. I do this just to show how should be more clear and comprehensible for the bonder a new design of the interface for the perpetuals enchants maintained on the party members...

i like the way the images explained it, although, if it can't come to the side of the Pary list, then perhaps have it go INTO the party list under the characters name.

Already suggested long time ago... but it¡s true

Hero panels have 'floating' icons around.

The party panel could have them too.

This would make playing a bonder more fun.

It's a good and simple idea.

3 years since the last post, good thread Necromancy going on here. Despite the fact that I would like this, I'll not support it for one reason. It would clutter the screen without a new party menu display. I don't want my party menu made larger, as that would cover more of the screen than I want it to. And with the possibility of huge numbers of enchantments being maintained, there would be no room. As a single Monk, you can maintain 7 enchantments on 1 person, but with multiple people maintaining them, that can increase greatly. I know the standard amount for most teams is 2-4, but I have been on a team where people (yes, more than 1) had 5 maintained. Even look at the old 600/Smite team where the 600 would have Balthazar's Spirit, Holy Wrath, Retribution, Essence Bond, Vital Blessing, Life Attunement, and possibly Watchful Spirit or Succor. Doesn't take long to start seeing a long list of enchantments to clutter up the screen. And currently all enchantments are displayed, not just the maintained ones. Either the icon to display them would be so small as to be hard to see what it is, or it would take up too much space and make things harder to fit on the screen.

I like and support the idea of the OP, even if it is 3 years old.

having the maintained enchantment icon next to party names will allow you to quickly cancel enchantments on your desired target and notice which targets may be missing enchantments. agree with proposed changed.

Yes thread rezz, but would you rather like a new thread instead of bringing back a good idea into focus?

Maybe you missed where I said 'good thread necromancy'? I wasn't being sarcastic. And although I would want them to reorganize the entire display for the party box before they implemented something like this, I would like it. But currently, some of my Bonding builds would end up making a significant mess out of the screen if they added an icon next to the players name in the party box. There just isn't enough space to fit enough in in its current form.
