Kin and Village/Realm members list addition

Post by jordancoles »

The reintroduction of the old kin window with the last logged in time and the portrait are great, but it would be even better if deceased members were marked as such in your kin.

Atm you can scan each player and look at their last login time, but there is no way of knowing if that person will never log on again. An X beside their name or a grayed out name would be a nice touch

Being able to see if someone in kin list is dead would be good addition.

I think it goes against one of their core philosophies behind how Kin should work in general. Just like how you don't inherit your kin list, some magical force shouldn't tell someone you met once 6 months ago that you perished.

what if visiting the grave site grayed the image out. Atleast thats clear that they are dead then and makes sense. We dont always get the bodies back, so you could always add a button beside the picture, a little check box to gray them to display that you believe them dead.

A nickname above graveyard would be enough.

Seeing the skeleton/skull/grave of a hearthling should mark it as dead on the kin list.

didn't it in legacy keep the name of fallen ones above their skeletons? I swear that was a thing, tho I cant quite remember. There is certainly something very grim about seeing the names of ur dead loved ones inside the palisade of an enemy base being displayed like trophies.

Yeah it did, I can agree that seeing the grave or skeleton of someone you have Kinned should flag them as dead. As well as showing the name above the Grave again.
