Auto consume food
I agree with this. Most MMOs have an auto-consume feature for consumables. The hero panel slot will be just perfect. It will automatically recognize the foods/boosts in your inventory and equip them in the respective slot.
Everquest 2 had right that. Two slots for food and drink in the character window. You could choose to deactivate auto-consume, should you deem it adequate. Food and drink had nothing to do with what it does here, granted, but the feature was really well done.
Yes! I would love this! Especially as someone who has a character that relies on their food as one of their only sources of healing.
I can’t see it happening though, Anet generally seems to be against anything ‘automatic’ happening for you/your character. And I can sort of understand that too, I guess. Still it would be great.
Everquest 2 in general has a lot of wonderful features that I wish other MMOS would look at. This is a little off-topic but; it’s probably best the MMO there ever has been.
