I like seeing markers, in the chaos of battle, if i suddenly have to sprint towards a platform to raise a shield or help my group with positioning a monster for beams, or even adds or anything, i'd like to know where i'm going without looking what place has the most cyan colored nametags around it and guessing it might be there.

I'm particularly fond of marking tanks, especially when i'm tanking as well, that way we can see what monsters are being picked up by a tank that's nearby and what monsters are currently roaming around. It's a massive performance boost and all it takes is having 3 little markers on 3 people. Personally i stopped caring entirely about douchbaggery in ST.


I mark the three tanks, if they remove them, i explain to them once how it would be helpful, if they remove them again, screw it. Especially if they complain afterwards that tanks arent picking up monsters. Well, we could have seen which were being dealt with and which are not, but you guys decided not to allow that.

Heck, with 15 slots the DPS queue is instant, and as a tank i'm waiting 20 minutes. I have no qualms doing it as a mindless DPS instead.
