PTR Armory Feedback

PTR Feedback
1

Hey here is my Feedback for the new Armory.

  • Does not save Rune Words or Gems socketed into the equip. (This can lead into a lot times not being able to load your full build if you would for example use a rune twice)
  • Does not save the Seaosn 7 Theme. Changing the witchpowers every time by hand after using the armory will be very annoying (but I can understand this because its “just the season theme”)
  • Does not save your transmog. Why not combine the armory with the wardrobe and save your equipped wardrobe slot. I Like my fire sorc to look like a fire sorc and my cold sorc like a cold sorc. Would be really annoying to always change the transmog by hand after changing the build.
  • 12 Characters name limit: Being able to save a bit longer build names would be really nice. I cant even spell Lightning spear as a build name.
  • A preview of the modifiers used on the different skills in your saved build would be nice

Thats all the Armory feedback I got.
Feel free to add even more feedback!

I like it and am glad they finally are putting it into the game. I am sure more changes will come and this early iteration will be improved upon.
This is one of the clear “wins” on PTR.

It should definetly save our cosmetics.

I will never understand such limits… serious.

I fully get why they would want to impose such a limit, just not why they actually do. It usually either display or database related as in only this many will fit nicely in the space the design has provided, or wanting to keep the field size small so not to overly impact database size.

Either way these design and technical considerations should take a back seat to user experience.

Edit: the design for PTR did look somewhat rudimentary compared to other UI elements, so it may have been a MVP draft used just to make the feature available for testing iirc it even said something like test content not final on the slide in the campfire.

Ah, cool, that you’re also giving good feedback here, Baske. :wink:

What is also not working correctly → Book of the Dead choices are not saved, so it just loads a basic one with Skirmishers, Bone Golem and so on. You need to respec it yourself and after overwriting the slot, it is only being saved as long as you’re logged in.

it is a dos 3.1 constraint unfortunately…
