    Ver 2.0 Crowd Control indicators?

    Any plans to add UI elements that indicate that certain mobs are under crowd control effects?

    For instance:
    If a mage casts "SLEEP" on a mob can we get some "ZZzzs" to show up to serve as a visual cue so party members will have a quick reference of what mob not to attack?

    Or if a mob is bound add some effect to quickly signify that a crowd control effect is in place.

    I think most of the mobs tend to alter their posture when they are bound or asleep already. The difference may not be that obvious, but it is there.

    more visual indicators (not on the action bar, on the enemies or player or around either) would be awesome. i have a feeling they know that ! so i can't wait

    Yes.. I'm tired of binding, sleeping, and whatever else can be interrupted.

    It's funny because as soon as I sleep one target, people decide at that exact time they want to switch targets and mystically attack my mob..... b****es

    Yes the monsters already do adopt a slumped posture when slept but I'm going to say something more painfully obvious (like the Zzzs) might be a useful idea.

    This wont help if you fighting 50+ mobs all together you just see ZzzZZzz and not even know which one out of the 50 mobs are still asleep or not. Seem like a pointless thing to do but hey better then noting i guess
