I'd like to see the aggro icon moved next to the mob CON icon.

I'd like to see the aggro icon moved next to the mob CON icon.

Please allow the aggressive icon to be optional. I personally think it looks tacky and takes away from the playing environment. If you make it optional you appease more players.

I agree with those who want the icon to be optional or only seen when targeting the monster~ instead of taking it out completely. There must of have been enough people requesting something like it for SE to actually implement it.
I actually enjoy the icon, and I don't see why people hate on it so much. But yeah, they can make it optional, so it would be a win/win situation.
Want to have more freedom on how you look!? Support this thread!:

I think the icon is fine, but there are other ways they could do it that would work just as well. The best thing to do might be to have different options avialable for this, so people can set it to their liking.
I was a fan of the beta warning in the chat feature. The peiste is aware of your presence it would calmly state in your chat. If you missed that, it agroed you like a snake would surely bite you if you were oblivious to it hissing in front of you.
Now it's DANGER ADVENTURER THIS R10 SWRM OF BEES IS AGGRESSIVE!
It's a bit too babysitting.
Really now.
did 99% ppl here against the aggro icon take silly pills today?
all the icon does is show what aggros not HOW. If they set up aggro like in most mmo. You have detects by sight, detects by sound, detects by blood, detects by magic.
So far all the icon does is shows you that it aggros. You still gotta learn how to avoid it. Really. I'm a long time ffxi player and Minus needing to see a flipping pic, I like the idea.
Do you guys what to sit and explain aggro to newbies everyday for years on end?
I think ppl are liers when they claim to play ffxi. Or else you guys forget how helpful the community used to be. Or hasn't played it recently. the ffxi community isn't as helpful as it was. Newbies end up getting strung along w.o getting taught anything. My last day playing. I ran into a guy stuck in jeuno. He was lvl 18 with lvl 1 gear. (its hard to come by/ 10K and up now) and couldn't get a party. I had to explain aggro to him as his friend who left him dudn't. He had no clue what did or didn't aggro.
All he told me was he was stuck. I was on a new character and if I wasn't low lvl myself I woulda help him out. He pretty much wasted an hour trying to leave jeuno due to getting killed by mobs.
Sorry but this game wasn't meant to be time consuming. So any slight help is a good thing.
I'm sorry but this icon needs to go away. With the amount of mobs in the game its really easy to remember what mobs aggro.
