(Suggestion) Removing the aggroe icon for monsters.

[Joji]

I don't like the icon showing which monsters who are able to attack you.
Its meant to be hard and seeing these icons from far away takes away some of the fun exploring.
If lets say you are walking around and a big eft is lurking in the bushes and you dont see him until he kills you, its part of the way things work in Eorzea.
It makes you more focused on whats happening on youre screen when youre mining or whatever you do.

So i hope im not the only one feeling this way, please remove those silly cheesy looking icons.

PS: Love that they finally have a forum here. Go SE!!!

Agree, would also like them removed or at lease the option in configurations to remove them.

{Yes, Please} It is already annoying me every time I see it.

Oops I deleted my post ; ;.

They should drop the icon, because now it feels like 2nd graders are the only people who are getting any benefits from the aggressive icon. It is quite upsetting.

Toggle for people who don't like please. Thank you.

To: FF XIV Team,

I totally agree:

• Please REMOVE the Icon for monsters that can attack you.

I understand you want to make the game more mainstream friendly, but since you don't lose any Experience Points if you die (unlike FF 11), then the worst that happens is you get slightly inconvenienced and try to sneak by some monsters again.

Right now, there are Bright Red Icons on every aggressive monster you see, and it really takes away from the immersive feel of the world you're in.

Thanks!

Yes, remove the icon. Part of the skill and strategy to this game is learning the beastiary and the characteristics of certain mobs. Having the icon there takes away that aspect of the game and renders it less complex, in a bad way.

Plus, it looks ugly.

Or, have it so aggresive monsters are red on the mini map, and normal mobs are white. Change the players colour and sorted. Then if you don't wanna check the mini map, you don't have to.

toggle option seems fine for this.

This is probably the best option.
