    While I don't mind having the extra info, I think the icon itself is a bit too gaudy.

    It'd be nice if they removed the icon, but have it display some type of aggro icon when you target it.

    Although generally speaking, I have one rule of thumb: If it has big sharp teeth and possibly scales, chances are it wants to kill me.

    Also if it is big, has horns/tusks or parts of its body appear to be made from lava.

    Integrating the aggro info into the targetting system instead of the mob name display sounds like a great way to get rid of the ugly icon showing up everywhere while still keeping the information available to the player.

    I agree having an icon appear when targeting an ememy would be better idea than how the aggro icon is currently displayed.

    Also if the player is much higher level than the enemy for it to be aggressive towards the player then the aggro icon shouldn't show. Example: I was passing by some of those yarzon type mobs and they were blue to me but were displaying the aggro icon so I thought I was still in the level range to be attacked. I ended up walking past them without any problem.

    So really we should have another colour level that indicates "Too Weak" (grey) and the aggro icon should not be shown since the enemy is too low level to attack the player.
