Im sure this has been said brought up before, buts its now 2023 and there is no way to access an item in your inventory without opening your inventory. 1 or 2 bars down beside the mount icon (or wherever), where an item could be placed, that allows the item to be used without opening your inventory, would be amazing, imo. Im thinking of items which need to be activated during an event or raid kill, portal devices, CC items in open world PvE...anything. Is there an actual reason this is not part of the game?

There is a population of players that just don't have the ability to commit a chunk of time to get into Raids. A lot of people (myself included) have full time jobs, kids, school, etc that just make it almost impossible to be able to sit down and play uninterrupted for any period of time. I can log on for several hours a day, but actual time spent playing may only be 30 min to 1 hour because of distractions. Maybe difficulty scaling would change that like others have suggested...maybe if players could experience the raid content in a condensed version with similar mechanics and fractal level rewards it would make the transition easier. I think personally if i could experience raid bosses in 5 man content (fractals) I would be much more willing to try and get into the Raids for the better rewards and achievements as it would be a less time consuming endeavor than trying to learn everything from scratch.

Similar issues here, crippling lag spikes. Ping will sit around 50 but jumps up to 3-4k, totally unplayable. Frustrating part is everyone I talk to in game is NOT having similar issues.
