Ver 2.0 Crowd Control indicators?

Any plans to add UI elements that indicate that certain mobs are under crowd control effects?

For instance:
If a mage casts "SLEEP" on a mob can we get some "ZZzzs" to show up to serve as a visual cue so party members will have a quick reference of what mob not to attack?

Or if a mob is bound add some effect to quickly signify that a crowd control effect is in place.

I think most of the mobs tend to alter their posture when they are bound or asleep already. The difference may not be that obvious, but it is there.

Yeah ZZzzs coming from the mob was what I had in my minds eye. I like the black haze idea! that would be awesome!

This would help everyone out, I really hope they add stuff like this.

more visual indicators (not on the action bar, on the enemies or player or around either) would be awesome. i have a feeling they know that ! so i can't wait

Yes.. I'm tired of binding, sleeping, and whatever else can be interrupted.

It's funny because as soon as I sleep one target, people decide at that exact time they want to switch targets and mystically attack my mob..... b****es

Yes the monsters already do adopt a slumped posture when slept but I'm going to say something more painfully obvious (like the Zzzs) might be a useful idea.

This wont help if you fighting 50+ mobs all together you just see ZzzZZzz and not even know which one out of the 50 mobs are still asleep or not. Seem like a pointless thing to do but hey :) better then noting i guess

yeah with the terrible camera angle you get in this game it'd be a bit hard to see which mobs are still sleeping unless they make the Z's very very obvious.

Why would you be fighting 50+ mobs to begin with?

Unless your acknoweledging the fact that your PL people that sleep mobs lol

I hope i can turn off those big ZZZ I can tell alreaady if a mob is asleep or bind....

They could have them turn a shade of a certain color like what happened in older FF games. Green for poison, blue for sleep, something like that.
