Improve FPS from HUD and others

jeannearcrl

I would like to know if there is a possibility to add markings for raid leader? just like there is in wow, I mean to mark the tank with an X on the head, Heal with a □, because the game is evolving both in mechanics and DG's, and I think that would help people who play dg random or enter dg without group call , and in addition to being increasingly difficult to identify such players within the DG, and something else is it possible to optimize the game's HUD? because it is very poorly optimized an example of this and pressing B the FPS goes up much more.

There is no such feature afaik, but this is a good idea. In dungeons it is better since you see the whole party in your HUD with the role marker there, but in trials you only see half the team.

The HUD is horrifically optimised. I agree this needs to be addressed. I have a very competent PC and no component is anywhere near maxed, yet in some zones I get 30-40 fps. The main culprit appears to be the quest tracker, and second is the minimap. If you use re-arrange hud setting to disable these 2 items you can see a massive fps gain. It more than doubles my fps and is closer to triple in some zones (like River District). There's absolutely no reason why 2 elements of the UI should be a bigger drain than running the rest of the game. When I reasonably can I do disable these elements but some zones and dungeons need them to communicate important information to me (e.g. lomm and bore worm bar).
