"Badge Title" display?

Can we get a notation on our Character Stats page that shows which Badge Title we are currently displaying on our wizard? When we open that screen, and click on the green circle tab for badges at the top of that page, can we have an insert that reads something like … “current Badge Display is …”?

We now have 36 pages of Badge Titles, and with mulitple wizards on multiple accounts, I can’t remember which title is currently being displayed on my wizards. That means I need to scroll through all of those pages to see which one I am using. Thanks for listening.

Well, you always could turn on the nametags to "all" and then it shows your wizard's name and badge.

I have also experienced this and completely agree. It would be extremely helpful to have a "your current badge is ____" insert. Maybe it could appear at the top of your badge list or in the space on the character page below your name that says rank (legendary, master, grandmaster, apprentice, etc) and your school/type of wizard. Instead of saying that it would read which badge is equipped and below that, what your rank and wizard type (theurgist in my case) is.

I am with you, I don't enjoy scrolling endlessly to find things.

However, you can see which badge you are currently using by ensuring that the appropriate "Show Names" option is selected. I like your idea better, but this is what the game already has in place.

Thanks Haley. I do have that option turned on, but I still can't see which badge I am currently wearing when I am in the "character stats" screen. I think that I have to be actively in a battle somewhere, and then I can move my cursor over my wizard and see the badge title.

But that doesn't help me when I am looking at 36 pages of badge titles, and trying to figure out which badge I am currently wearing. I still think that a "one line note" somewhere on the character stats screen would be a big help. That screen currently shows the current wizard title (like Novice, Initiate, etc.). So maybe we could add one more line for "current Badge display"?

(And thank you to Lucas Rain for your comments too.)

Thank you Grace. They are both good ideas. Sounds like it wouldn't be too difficult to change that page either. Not sure about that (is it too difficult to change?).

It's not "All Others" it's "Everyone" in the options. Your title will show with your name above your character wherever you happen to be at the time. No mousing over it or being in battle needed.

Thanks seethe42. I'll check my options in-game.

But I would still like to see it listed on the character stats page too.
