I know the devs have talked about not wanting to give too much “inspect” information when looking at another player (if any) because of the fear of people being elitist about gear scores and such.
However! What I’m imagining is a way to have a “Wish List” – essentially a list of items that you want to acquire at some point. You would then have 4 or so settings for it: Private (only you can see it), Public (anyone can see it), Followers (Followers and Friends can see it) or Friends (only Friends can see it).
The idea of this feature is to make friendly gift-giving play easier! Say you want to give someone a gift, but you aren’t sure what he already has and what he’s looking for. Now if his Wish List is visible to you, you can look at it and see what he’s looking for.
This would also be a neat way to keep track of what items you’re personally trying to get. Like a “goal” list.
Let me know what you think!
Or words to that effect.
