The recent changes to the Summer Festival food parameters have highlighted a long-standing problem with the player experience with unique items. None of us can see the internal item number that the software uses to identify an object. So, for example, when the stats are changed on the food item effective some date ... there is no means to determine which item is 'old' and which is 'new' visually. This also is an issue with unbound/accountBound/charBound items.
Can we please have a *consistent* indicator on all icons that clearly shows which is old/new/unbound/from event, etc.?
This could be the border color or some part of the icon design. But please remove the frustration of having to inspect every item to determine what it really is before usage.
I recently purchased VIP and was /facepalm over the fact that the 'free' healing potions are a different item number than the crafted version, really?
Make it easier not harder to manage objects in this game, please.
