Hello, is it possible to implement a count down timer bar above the characters head in order to keep track of buff? In some end game dungeons / fields farming, lots of consumables’ are used and clutter the right side of the screen and hard to keep track of the buff. Let player choose which buff to show up above the characters and can pick the color for each buff.

As for partial gray maps option in the client, this will make gray map ignore on all the towns only but dungeon / field / instances remain in gray.

It would look like the red bar above head with 1’21 (1 minutes 21 second)

Example 2 for better visual

I like both, but I have a stronger inclination for buff timers. Stuff like comet, climax, inspiration is so nice to have in there!

@myntsu ohh, the agi bless text is actually self typed. For the first image, the red color is acceleration (mechanic skill), at the second image, the red color is actually inspiration timer, i didn’t type it because its too long and might be distracting. You can customize any buff or consumables to any color and add any text.

An option to only enable greymap on combat areas would be nice

Title: Add a Timer above Character Head

Description:
A colored bar above Character head to indicate time remaining for certain buff and consumables.

Why is this a good idea?
In some end game instances, dungeons and fields farming, lots of consumables are used and clutter the right side of the screen and hard to keep track of the buff. Let player choose which buff to show up above the characters and can pick the color for each buff (not sure how to implement in client but similar to how we edit setting_txt? or turbo).

Example :- Tower of Trials, for Class IG (dps), keeping an eye on Prestige and inspiration buff is super tiring as im looking at the Cooldown at Skill bar and trying to look at the center of the screen at the same time instead of the right side Buff Icon because its crowded with other buff. Buff like Full Chemical Protection and Piety are crucial in ToT.

What risks or downsides does it have?
None that i could think of.

Different color for different buff / consumables duration.
