It only marked the one I was hitting with that marker, the rest had none. And yes, all of them were autoattacking me.
    Well, ok. That is a little different. But, eh, still seems duplicated especially if you are in range and are able to auto-attack (unlike the BRD and MCH stances which don't auto-attack). Next time I am out I am going to have to get on one of those jobs, turn on the stance, and see if it changes that little indicator.

    But aside from that, if you are in range (be it melee or BRD/MCH) and are in a stance that allows auto-attack, I don't see the situational times you need to know that. Yeah there are times when you tab through targets and you do not want to auto-attack the wrong one (non-aggroed group behind what you are fighting, something that is rooted, or asleep) but by the time you tab to those targets, the auto-attack already did its thing. And yeah I wish they would properly fix tab targeting.

    So while that is interesting testing, and nice clarification, and I may do more later on, I am still failing to see why they gave very strict resources to this seemingly useless UI piece.
