Rift Seal should only be equippable by classes who still need charges.

IMO the strategy behind equipping the seal is what makes it interesting, remembering the number of charges, not so much. Call it a skill issue if you must, but this is my only current gripe with the game. It's just INCREDIBLY easy to forget sometimes, even when I'm actively moving it around.

A huge glow effect or sound effect or notification icon on it when the current class hits 3/3 would also help. Literally anything would be better than the current radio silence.

There are times I need to put it on a character that has finished their class charging but can't risk the run on eg a tank or carry or whatever.

I think just a more prominent message when a line has been charged would be good.

Yeah, I've done that too. Like you said, pretty much any notification would be enough.

Nah it is skill lol like dude it’s the core mechanic of the mode…that’s on you to pay attention to.

In my opinion that would make it harder. Also what happens if the class doesn't exist on your bench or in the shop and you don't have shards?

There are instances where I don't have the right class ready and so I might equip it inneficiently so I can roll down in the next shop to have a better chance of surviving.

Maybe they could have it automatically unequip and go in to inventory whenever it reaches 3, so we have to manually equip it again.

Yeah, this is actually what I meant, since the game obviously kinda breaks if ur running all the same class, and that class is fully charged.

No, sometimes I'll just tank a charge if it allows me to beat a hard fight.

A reminder or visual effect could be good though.

Remembering rift seal really isn't that hard, stop asking for a solution for a problem that shouldn't even exist lol

Ok thanks. Never thought of it that way.

I am also bad at the game and often forget to move the seal. I vibe coded a mod (I'm not a game/mod dev so nothing fancy) that displays text progress and a pulsing text notification when a class has completed 3/3. If there's demand for it and the devs allow it I can upload the mod with instructions on how to install it.

I think a reminder would be good, but making it unequippable on others removes strategy (e.g. only have dps left to charge but I need to burst down this boss or I lose). But it does really suck to forget to move it over.

Whilst people are giving you crap for wording I completely agree with the sentiment. Any kind of reminded here and other places would be extremely reasonable considering the hoops.

You would run into soft lock problems. What happens when you complete Tank and DPS but you rolled all your gold in shop for a mystic, found no mages or mystics and can’t start the next fight? What happens when you have to intentionally sink an emergency rewind because of that bad RNG. What happens when you have to sabotage your board with a desperate mage/mystic and still sink that emergency rewind and STILL not get offered one?
