I haven't had a good, memorable dream in a few weeks. I've had a few FFXI related dreams here or there, that had me waking up thinking, "That's not in the game..." and then I forgot them.

They need to make trusts customizable somehow. For example, let me turn off Haste 1 from *** Sylvie.

Is this "Update packets (0x00E)" similar to just coming within the 50 range of a mob?
That seems to be a much better alternative

You make a shout for Sheol C, a WHM joins, your party enters, and you see the WHM is full-timing a warp ring and Ambu gear. What do you do? What every responsible DD would do, sack pull as many camps as possible asap while making sure to stay outside of the WHMs cure range. Just mind to fall the right way so that your index finger points towards the healers while mortis kicks in.
You know what? I'm just going to starting asking people "Who's mule are you?" right off the bat.

The amount of people that still don't understand that vanilla client can't simply ranged WS without engaging first..
"But why are you engaging that mob before you leaden it?! Just fffff leaden it!"
Then someone has to explain that (a) that's a GS thing and (b) that player is vanilla they can't do that.
Also the screams will be heard.. very far.. if that ever gets removed.

For the lay people it comes down to it using widescan when it should not be able to, correct?

The real test, is to uninstall FFXI and Deactivate your account...
... then re-install, reactivate, and get through POL Viewer WITHOUT A GUIDE.

That trust stuff sounds alot like the friendship bracelet NPCs that they completely forgot about.
Fellowship of the forgotten NPC, or whatever it was called.

That said... I'd love to see more fights that expect a bit more engagement than just "hit button when gauge is filled, turn if you see this in the log." Honestly even something as simple as "it has DT-90% against magic and attacks, DT-50% against skillchains, and DT-25% against magic bursts" would be refreshing.
That kind of variety is something OG Limbus had that was lost in the update. Pure speculation, but with how modern limbus mobs get level/stats assigned on pull, SE might be able to add selectable(or randomized) pathos effects or run modifiers for more challenge in the future. Probably not... but we can dream, yeah?

In that case, I think its best to remove the functionality altogether and only use the mob array that Windower makes available without the packet injection.
The innocent way to do the auto-detection-when-getting-into-range is to monitor incoming NPC Update packets (0x00E). You get one of those anytime a mob pops in your render range (50 yalms), then for anything they are involved in thereafter (spawn/despawn, hp change, movement, claim/unclaim, etc etc). The zones are really not that big and you'll still get a steady stream of updates.

The most space I'd have is maybe some trust ammo or SE bringing back slightly lesser used auxiliary weapon variety . Eg thf on crossbows/guns . BLM scythes with trust+, and so forth that can be stored in porter slips

Is the mob array the one that pulls all available entities ids into table
Alive or not?

Trust equipment? I hope they get their own inventory if they do that.

How should SE represent it?
Well they shouldn't. You should represent it by being good, and encouraging/teaching others to also be good :)
You make a shout for Sheol C, a WHM joins, your party enters, and you see the WHM is full-timing a warp ring and Ambu gear. What do you do? I make the most of it, and earn whatever Segments/Gil I can earn :)
You make a shout for Sheol C. A WHM joins. They're R30. You enter. What's this, they're /dnc? They pull hate on a Halo mob on the 2nd floor and die without Reraise.
What do you do? 1-why did they pull hate over proper DD? Says more about you than them (other than the no-RR part)
2-theyre R30, thats the pinnacle of skill and they definitely earned it unlike those filthy ML50 no-skill botting scrubs. In Nynja's world, the DD tank the Sheol mobs/attack the same one as the melee WHM, and the tanks can tag all 40 or so mobs on the 2nd floor in the mass pull >_>
(but our solution was to raise him with the Raise Helmet from that one seasonal, and keep on trucking)

This is normally about the time I’d record myself making fun of them and put it on YouTube.
To be fair though I’d make fun of the r30 person more than the ambu gear person.

I'm not entirely against movement focused gameplay but I find the way they did it in XIV with the colored shapes on the ground low effort, I'd much rather have it telegraphed with distinctive animations sort of like they do in the souls games.
Also movement in XI is clunky and tic rate too low for this type of gameplay.
Trust upgrade system in the works for years? You guys sure it wasn't just that marjory NPC quest or rhapsody KI stat improvement?

they'd be fine for the Japanese base, but players on other continents will run into that pesky issue of the monster not actually being where our client says it is.
That's like half of why moogle ambuscade sucks so much even after modifications to make it more forgiving. Devs are in Japan, servers are in Japan, testing is never going to account for the latency inherent in communicating with a player in North America.
You should try that from Europe.. it's a ***show. Talking 2sec delay from button press to action. Moogle ambu is an instant skip. It's why dyna lag isn't that big of a deal - that kind of delay is on everything whether instanced or not.
IMO things like limbus NMs are fine-ish, minus the lack of rewards. Their health doesn't regen if you wipe, you can take an alliance or three and fight them and be no worse off because they cheat and do TP -> 1hr -> TP -> 1hr back to back to back anyway so just expect you'll die a few times.
I'd expect some of them to get hit by the nerf gun a few months down the line.

Make it have position mechanics like FFXIV
That's literally the thing I dislike the most about XIV.
Just fights that have you react to things in a certain way could be fun, except... well, we kind of tend to just shop that out to addons, as anybody who's watched people lying on the floor and still turning away from the lamiae in ambuscade can attest.
Anything that involves actually moving to specific positions though... basically impossible unless they're highly scripted. Oh, they'd be fine for the Japanese base, but players on other continents will run into that pesky issue of the monster not actually being where our client says it is.

What happened to the "trust upgrade system" or whatever it was?
IIRC rumor mill says it's slated for sometime 2026 but don't recall if they definitively stated its in the works or just something they've been discussing.
