suggested that our bonus status/time left be shown in the buffs bar, similar to how the Chronicle one is. It could also go on the clan tab noticeboard where you find out whether there are any avas out, and if so, what worlds they are on and who has them.

I could see the noticeboard being a good spot for some kind of an identifier, even if it was just an icon with a ✔ or X maybe.

I don't think the buff bar would be the best spot for it though, because only 8 active buffs are shown there at a time, so effectively always being 1 short wouldn't be ideal for a lot of players, I think.

I don't think there is any other way than directly interacting with the avatar and checking or the quartermaster, obviously apart from seeing the swirl.

The best idea though would be to show the active avatar buff on your buff bar .


Been asking for that for a little while and have had no response. Would be nice to see it implemented.

, let's continue suggesting it and vocalizing our interests, then! Our job is to motivate the direction of in-game updates, and the CLF jmods' jobs is to weigh perceived desire with opportunity cost (dev time, complexity, etc) for such suggestions and feedback--it's not our job to be considerate of constraints, though being mindful of them is appreciated, because it makes us less efficient at being enthusiastic and pushing for positives.

It's also really easy to suggest things, some ideas which are more meaningful to certain people than others, and as such it's difficult to gauge what the best use of dev time would be. Consequently, people normally feel strongly about something to create and maintain thread on such a thing.

I really want to see a more convenient way of determining whether your active buff is still active or not, since it makes ava eligibility more present and accessible, and avatars are such a part of the clan lifestyle. It's such a neat commonality that so many Runescapers share, and I want my clannies to be motivated to be a part of such a culture, because as a smaller clan most of us aren't interested in avatars.

Definitely. Seams my voice has been lost in the depths of Twitter and the like. I asked on the VIP Q&A, but sadly that isn't out yet. I know a few people of suggested it, and it would definitely be a big help.

Please not an other annoying icon >.> It will be there 24/7

Thanks
Burnable
for the feedback :) I wasn't able to find another thread on this at the time of creation, and wanted to bring it up so that Maz and MattHe could get a sense of how much interest there would be in such a thing. (And also so they'd be aware of just HOW GOOD OF AN IDEA THIS IS AND HOW USEFUL IT IS AND HOW MUCH WE WOULD BENEFIT FROM SUCH AN IMPLEMENTATION AND HOW WORTHWHILE IT WOULD BE.)

Ferenc
, thanks for the response. Agreed with how the buff bar is annoying, especially when I get random combat bonuses while skilling. I think it would be more worthwhile having the avatar buff show up in the buff bar than not at all, but that's a really good thing to keep in mind.

Thanks all for reading, and for those of you who responded, for posting :)
