Customizable individual trust settings. A range select toggle you can change as needed (Close (for Tanks and melee) to allow me to TA onto them (so annoying having the tank in a position that puts you *just* outside of melee range), Medium range for casters, support and ranged characters, Far 15+ yalms for risky AoE's, Very Far for max casting range. This would help with the trust clusterfuck of having them get continuously nailed by nasty aoe's and debuffs which freaks the healer AI out and they start doing stupid stuff instead of keeping you/tank alive.
Being able to select or restrict directions to stand at for melee. Control over which buffs trusts will use. Being able to change distance and direction settings on the fly for the groups. I'm thinking something like Ctrl + P held and tap R to toggle the range for Melee, Ctrl + P and tap D(irection) to toggle the side they will stand on. Ctrl + M for mages/support. Could also possibly use CTRL/Alt F1-F6 to give individual settings on the fly. IE CTRL + F2 held and tap another button to change direction/Range settings on the fly for that specific character. Idk just random thoughts on how I would work it
Being able to equip trusts with equipment upgrades like your fellow. Give trusts access to Wardrobes for said gears (think gearsets so you don't have to equip each and every single trust with each and every single piece of gear and having said gears being removed from your inventory the entire time so it'll be a complete pain in the *** when you switch jobs and have to rob your trust gear back) Obviously restrict equipment that the trust and yourself are using to prevent you both from using it at the same time.
Being able to activate trusts without engaging. Be nice to prebuff, cure, raise, remove status ailments etc outside of combat. Its always the best ending a fight in the red HP with a Dia or Bio active and having all your healer trusts stand around doing *** all while they let you die. Or with the being able to select which buffs they use you could Mazurka/Jig/Bolter's to make exploring/travelling quicker.
Besides trusts I cant really think of much I'd like to see improved. I do find that as I age that little Golden Arrow to show which target you're on gets harder to see. I know there's an addon that changes it to a bigger blue triangle but idk what addon it is. Need to add a setting in the game to change the size/colour/visibility of it. Hell while you're at it have a toggle setting that prioritizes mob targeting over Trusts/NPCs/PC's. I don't really have an issue with it more than I find it slightly annoying sometimes to have a bunch of people/trusts around something you're trying to target/fight and having it target someone who just so happens to moving in a direction that changes the next target to something already past the mob or right into a crowd so you get lost in the milling sea of bodies just trying to target that one mob. /targetnpc hates me and usually targets something useless and its back through the sea of moving bodies again. Combine that with the diminishing ability to see the target marker if it makes a big jump and I usually just esc/Circle button and try again when I lose it (>_<)
Eliminating animation lock
Being invulnerable for like 3-5 seconds after accepting a raise so AoE's don't take you down again while the overly long animation keeps you in place or being able to immediately move instead of standing there, putting your weapons away, getting animation locked from the inevitable cure that wont prevent you from getting one shotted.
Displaying the amount of shadows remaining when you have more than 4
Not having spells cast on you cancel out NPC menu interactions. I don't mind if its an enemy spell that does it. But having my mule singing buffs shouldn't.
That's about all I can think of atm. Probably a million things more that escape me atm
