Musical Instrument Expiration Timer

I don't know if I'm the only one who does this, but I occasionally keep trying to check how much time is left by looking at the little tooltip that pops up on my hotbar when I hover over the icon.

The time to expiration is not there, and I then have to go into my bookbag in order to check the timer, and remember which page the instrument is on.

If Runewaker could code it so that the timer shows up in the hotbar tooltip as well as the bookbag tooltip, it'd be much appreciated.
In a world of black, white, and grey... I'd be bright friggin' purple. M/P on Reni.

Something else Lady: instead of the insturments beign BOP they should be BOE. It will help out crafters in giving them something else to sell, and help out those that use them. Too much crap is BOP in RoM and that needs to change or it lokks like RoM will be 6 feet under just like Eligium.

Bind on Equip means the item can be traded between players.

Bound on Player means the item requires either a bind lifter or ABL in order to be traded, if it can be unbound.

When instruments are crafted, they are Bound on Player immediately after being crafted. And please, stop stating that the game is going to die like Eligium, you made your point in the other thread. I am glad that you are for BOE, as you were originally against it, but I posted this thread to make the game a little easier for myself and other players. It should be a fairly simple change to include the expiration timer in the hotbar tooltip.

It might be more productive to make a thread in the addon forum and twist Peryl's arm a bit.

Not that your suggestion that this functionality be included in the client is wrong - you just might find another player to be able to make a solution quicker and easier.

speaking of timers I'm not appreciating the fact that i spend money on stuff and they expired before their times...i.e. angel sighs wearing off before 24 hours is up mount pots that wear off before their 7 day timer. Fix this please. Im not the only one this has haooedned too

I don't think any timers show up on the tool bar, only on the buff icon or in your bag

Another timer oddity I've noticed is with mento pots, start a party, pop pots and later some people still have 10-15 minutes while others will have expired

Because people crash, or log, and the timer stops while youre logging back in, so the timers get all screwy.

Also... I just checked: And I can see the time till expiration on my instruments from my action bar :o
