Tracking them down myself is better than blantly pointing them out. Makes me feel like I actually did the work of finding them, otherwise why not send a town guard to the sign post that says "enemy here"?

Man, sometimes I just miss the days of FFXI sometimes.. I remember those times where I would camp leaping lizzy and I would main or sub Ranger just for their, job specific, tracking ability. It would be the only job able to see mobs moving on the map and able to see when a NM poped on the map.

I disliked that about 1.0 FFXiV, that they showed the NM on the map and it is easily seen by everyone by a specific icon.

Having certain things like this makes me think that they can't bring the ranger class back because you can see everything on the radar compass. Not sure if this is still true for ARR though
