There will be an option to turn it off. This is PvP only for now. I feel like it might be pretty messy in WvW, but we can talk about turning it on there as well if WvW players want that.

Druids in T4 and Raids definitly need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are people wanting to see health bars for people outside of their squad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's likely possible, but it's something outside of our teams normal responsibilities. I'll talk to some folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like it might be pretty messy in WvW, but we can talk about turning it on there as well if WvW players want that.To make it viable for WvW it would require having a 4th color for the enemies that are not in teams. Beasts, aetherblades, etc. And it can't be white like neutral points are, it would be confusing with critters having white too. People already has too much trouble with how close green and blue are for many of them. IT may be time to check some colorblind palettes to pick better colors that will work for everyone.

This way, it would also be possible, to deactivate healthbars overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
