Magical Damage Indicators

What would having this information do for you?
I think only one job would care (DRK) so I'm not sure it'd be worth it.
And as a DRK understand what is and isn't magic damage isn't that hard (and honestly not that important outside of ultimate and week 1 Savage prog).

I presume its meant to ensure that if Feint/Addle are used, then it would be used to their highest potential, as opposed to being wasted on something that is the opposite type of damage (orc merging the two into one single ability would also get the job done and would be more in line with recent changes)

If an attack is energy based, it's magic, like 95% of the time. If it's a raid wife aoe or a stack marker, 95% it's a magic aoe. Most tank busters are slams, smashes, stabs, body slams and are physical

Good point.
I forget about addle.

Addle, Feint, Heart of Light, Dark Missionary, Dark Mind, Fey Illumination and to a certain extend Camouflage are all skills that only work on one of the two damage types and having to guess what is what or needing outside sources is rather annoying, combine that with the atrocious combat log this game has and it becomes an exercise in frustration to figure out if your mitigation is actually even doing anything.
