Update on Future UI Changes.

[Enfarious]

I don't know, all I care about is cases such as Myrmidon Princess battle where new spawns of Myrmidon Guards need to be targeted fast. (moogle is another example where this would be helpful)

When you have 10-14 trash ants, 1 main boss and a guard where does the guard fit on the list, how long is the list ? etc.

In cases such as boss fights, after the CS the boss at the top is a given, sub-bosses next, trash last. As these are instanced the claiming doesn't matter and the list can be created/filled right away.

I don't see the need for this feature in the open world, give me an example of why you would need to quickly target a random world monster ?

Full Party XP, 4 links, but there's 3 stray mobs w/in targeting range, oops I nuked the wrong one, here comes another group of links. This solves that problem.

This isn't to say I don't like Riaayo image/idea but the problem with that example is there is no party widget, no minimap.

Also if you look at the 2.0 UI picture there is a lot more UI stuff on screen, where would such a list fit?

They're widgets for a reason, put it where you want, or hide them away if you prefer. The text commands/placeholders would still be very useful.

You can tell an engage enemy by the colour of its name, and if your target icon is above it.

But yea I suppose it would be easier and create less cases of people careless nuking stuff.

I'd like for there to be an option to put a black background/box around the party (and potential enemy) HP/MP bars, as it's sometimes really hard to read the white numbers otherwise.

Agree this would be nice.
