- Ever think about how when another player stands 1cm in front of you and they go transparent?
But when you're in Revived Illusion, Phantasm or Crom somehow the walls will do anything they can to block your view...
I don't know about you guys, but personally it really affects my willingness to run these due to the walls blocking your view despite the fact you need to see the whole floor. Yes, you can do a top-down view, but you could only zoom so far.
While I love seeing the craftsmanship of Mabinogi as a whole, I also like being able to see what I'm doing while fighting and NOT have to fight the walls.

- Speaking of field of view and zooming. Have you guys ran puri and had the frustration of Archelon being so big that you couldn't see him use Water Recovery Skill, and then your party gets wiped? I know I have. While I do my best to zoom out as far as I possibly can (Yes, my field of view is maxed) I still struggle to see him. If the mobs/bosses are massive, the field of view needs to really be expanded so you can see properly.

- Everyone's dyed a piece of clothing before, right?
When you start dying, the screen pulls up this new view and if you look down, there's the black fade to the bottom of your screen. If you don't know what I mean, try and dye your shoes and zoom in as far as you can to see every detail.
Kinda difficult to see your shoes in order to dye them, right? I personally can't understand why we have to have this black fade going down the screen as it obscures a player's ability to dye everything and see every detail.
While dying, players should be able to see everything they wish to dye with ease. Zoom in needs to be closer/and or there needs to be the ability to move the camera around.

-Every try to take a screen shot and you just can't seem to get the camera angle right? It would be very nice if we had a free camera so we can take screen shots as we please.

- Have you ever gone onto the Auction House and seen a hair color, spirit transformation liqueur, chair or homestead Item and had no clue what they looked like because you can't preview? You then have to go ahead and try to figure out what box the item was released in and then hope there's a preview of it somewhere in the wiki. And if there is none, you're out of luck.
We should be able to preview these like how we do other items. (I'm aware some HS items are already preview-able but not all of them are.)
Let us preview hair color dyes, spirit transformation liqueurs, chair and homestead items! Anything that is purely visible should be preview-able if the item can go on AH.

-Lastly, I've been very happy with all the skin tones that have been released for our characters over the past years. But ever have the issue of matching a pair of gloves to your characters skin tone? Imagine NOT being the default pale color and then getting a pair of gloves that do not match your character at all. It's also incredibly difficult to match different skin tones, even with the use of direct dyes.
I purpose the idea of having a Skin Tone Mold, similar to Hair Dye Mold, where players can match their characters skin tone. It would need to be separated by the races and labeled correctly. Ex. I'm an elf and the skin tone I use is "Winter White". I then could buy a box, select the race I am and then go down the list and select the matching skin tone.
I think we can all agree this would be a great idea because so many outfits/shoes/gloves have a skin tone part and it's just beyond frustrating to color match clothes to your own character.

What do you guys think?
Please feel free to share this with friends, GM/CM etc. The more we bring these things up/talk about them, the more likely we can see changes we want and value.
