Name Highlight for Leeches and Esuna alert usage.

[Guyver]

I was thinking that when a person gets enfeebed, their name gets highlighted red. Thinking that this could be useful for easier recognition to know when to use Leeches and Esuna. Hate having to look through the buff list, or read a message by tank to know when to use these abilities at the same time trying to dodge attacks. At lower levels, it is not bad, but higher lv dungeons, us healers have to move alot. This can help. Good idea?

There are plenty of ways healing could be made easier, but I don't know if they'll ever be implemented. I think it's definitely their aim for awareness to be a big part of how you play. And though the debuffs are never 100% stand-out, they are unique and always on the leftmost side of the list now, I think. Just needs some practice, go find out what attack is applying the debuff, and when it applies it. I think you'll find that some of the encounters in this game are so scripted and predictable, (by that I mean, you can almost certainly KNOW some time before the move when you're going to have to leeches) that you'll wonder why you even freaked out in the first place.

Until Add-on generation is fully enabled by SE, that's all we can do, and even when it is, it could be likely that they'll prevent anything which interferes with the way they want players to be interacting with the game.

I can do it, and been doing it. It's just tedious and wondering if healers would like a simpler method. After a many battles of the same boss it does get easier. Still, a highlight for an enfeebed member would be nice.

Idk, the bright red new buff icon always catches my eye and its usually gone within seconds of application. Some healers just seem really slow to see it. Just gotta train yourself to keep an eye on the buff bars.

Been awhile since I could play due to financial issues and I can't log in myself to check but is there an option in the interface maybe to filter what buffs even show in your window?

Please no... With <tt> and focus target macros already in place, I don't want healing to be dulled down any further.

[Kaelah]

I kinda agree with Bije. Although it would be nice, it'd make things a bit too easy. Maybe if it was an optional feature so it could keep people of both mind sets happy...

[Guyver]

I agree with the optional idea. Also didn't realize this could make healing dull for some players, but it can also benefit inexperienced healers.
