NM's just got noobed [dev1184]

[indira]

[dev1184] The following adjustments have been made to the minimap.

The color tone of the minimap will be adjusted to improve the visibility of the character's field-of-view.
Notorious monsters now have their own icons.

why oh why would they do this? i sure hope thats a after claim mark.

I fail to see how this effects anything beyond offending your personal view of how FFXIV should look like.

[Arximiro]

Seriously? gtfo geez

It's just going to make it easier to see if you're looking for the claim. If anything it's just a race to get there when it pops.

It could help you get the claim faster or screw you if you were farther away than another group, so it'll break even, right?

[Reika]

I like it...

[Avraym]

Complaining for the sake of complaining are we?

[miqokini]

I approve. It doesn't make the game more noob friendly.

i not seen it yet but i don't think i like the sound of it either. but this isn't ffxi. but if you take ffxi as an example there were things like peacock charm nm, people rather then camping it themselves used other people they new were camping it as markers for the tod, on top that ...there were shared nm in that one, so if u can see the nm icon it makes it even worse. lol for that nm especially i would kill the other nm but stay for hours pretending i still looking for the nm just to screw with these peoples tod. but anywho i'm sure nm's in ffxiv won't be like this but still it's kinda cool that people not on the ball can miss the kill and be confused so others on the ball can get another pull in.

nother example megalo, i would pop and pull him as far as i can cause lot of people camped it and not new the force pop. lol.

Uh..I don't get how anybody could seriously complain about this -.-"
It's not even CHANGING anything. Groups always knew pretty much where NMs pop,so they stayed closed to that place.
Just by watching the minimap closely you could see a new yellow ball (the NM respawn) pop up.
Only differece is that it's a different symbol now so you won't have to watch the minimap so closely.

quitting the game because of this
