You must not play melee DPS.

My main job is Ninja, and I don't use the target ring at all (been off since the start since it was just annoying), you see, you can actually look at the enemy themselves and see where they're facing!

You do know that you can turn off other player affects so this wouldn't be an issue seeing the hit box / target ring

I didn't think about this. At this point it's mostly a niche desire then, as it is fun to see the light shows, but thank you for reminding me of this particular feature.

Different strokes for different folks. I like the target ring because there's no question where back ends and flank begins and when I play DRG I like to sit on that particular spot where both meet so I have minimal movement to meet all positional requirements.

Also unless you have all spell effects off like mentioned above, big possibility mind and a smart alternative I'll grant, the enemy's model still vanishes once enough nukes start popping off.

Guess I never really thought about that, as I've always played with just the Ground effects from other players, so seeing positions on the enemy model is real easy without ugly markers

I did do that actually for the longest time since I thought it was annoying too, but at 60 (esp as MNK since every attack is a positional), I really noticed how it was impeding my ability to play as I had to know bosses different sizes & their correlations to flank/back difference as some have larger backs than others & I don't always see when smaller baddies that are being turned, especially in 24 man content where all I see is a blur of people & skills, so I turned the indicators back on as to me it is better that safe than sorry.
