Does anyone miss the "Drop Banner" idea from Diablo 3?

I play as a duo with a buddy of mine and he’s generally absent-minded when it comes to moving towards objects or targets, or goals that we have established. Diablo 4 introduced pinging via “Open map > right click location” but it is cumbersome when trying to organize in a fight or if you want to show him where the blacksmith is 15 feet away.

Did anyone use this feature in a similar fashion as our party did? I would love for it to be brought back, as I also loved the customizability it offered. I also assume I’m in a very niche scenario as I:
do not play with randoms
never inspect people
never trade outside of my +1
dont care for what my “call-of-duty-esque” gamertag banner displays

Have a good one all, lemmi know!

Yes i missed it.

Missed dropping my chicken banner on top of my buddy in the midst of intense combat just to throw him off

How does this relate to the situation, I can’t figure it out.

It doesn’t really apply to the original question / argument, I threw it in there to better elaborate on the type of player I am. (My goal was to highlight that I don’t care much for other players in the world outside of my befogged friend.)
I appreciate the question regardless. Hope that clears it up.

Not really, no. Never used it.

I miss it. Really wish we could dump em in parties for communication. Sometimes its faster just to “ping” than having to press “Enter, h, e, r, e,” Especially in the midst of combat or similar.
