Aggro Icon

[viion]

They should placed icon next to difficulty icon when you Target mob. Solve everything.

It ruins the atmosphere!Need mores ideas!

And more ppl should be like you. I get ppl are different, but this isn't the case of being different. This is a "i'm tired of helping newbies, i'm just focusing on end game" mindset. It is slowly killing the ffxi community.
those who just joined ffxi ended up quiting from it too : /

Understood, Kilta.

However the case, our conversation is now derailing the main topic of this thread, which is supposed to be about the new Aggressive Icon. So I recommend that you start a new thread on the topic of motivating players to be more helpful and mentoring.

Now we should get back on topic.

I predict this is exactly what will happen. Great idea.

I miss the beta "aggro monster" notice ;/

When you got near one you'd get a message
"The ??? notices your presence and assumes an aggressive stance!"

You had like 2 seconds to move away or be attacked.

I'm totally against the ugly icon in any shape or form.

Is SE really trying to make this game cater to casuals or retards?

Never thought of SE being the company to spoon feed everything to people thought that was left to blizzard? ><

I mean seriously once you explore and die a few times you know what agros and what dont, its all apart of the game, not just this game any game.

I really don't like this icon, back in early 2009 when i was still highly anticipating this game i was looking forward to not being spoonfed in this mmo and looking to work with sneak, invis and deodorise again. This to me adds so much more. Please remove the icon, or give us the option to turn it off.

[Dalmore]

forget an option to turn it off they need to just remove it all together

The question is, of course, whether that is an enjoyable part of the gameplay. I don't morally oppose people who like to inflict punishment onto themselves, but it's not nice to assume everyone else is like you. Though the current aggro icon does seem to be a bit intrusive on the plain view, maybe a smaller icon would suffice nicely.

I loved that. The mob would totally look at you as to say: 'WTF you doing in my face?' then arch its back and breath heavy, then say 'You got 2 seconds bro...'
