Way to fix Dots display

Have the same dots stack up with a number at the side of the icon. Have the countdown timer only be displayed for parties members/only yourself dots only. Stacking cap being 9. So can have 9 Bio1s, 9 Bio2s etc. Same debuffs would have a cap of 1 or 2 on it, such as Virus. The max debuffs/dots you can have right now on a mob would be 20. The new stacking system you can have 180.

Yeah not a perfect image I made. Yeah I forgot about that. Lets just say there all green or i'm color blind. Also if there all same color and you know the timer is yours that would fix the color blind issue other players have.

This seems like a really bad idea, I do not see anything wrong with the current display. Though a little separator between your dots and others would be a luxury change.

Would only see your timer if mult of the same debuff/dot get used by other players. Because theres a timer on it you know thats your debuff/dot. Its why in the image you can only see the DRG debuff timers and not the Thunder dot timers.
