    Se. Give us healers better indicators

    Basically as a healer, unless we have a mob targeted, we see neither the aggro meters beside peoples names, nor do we see the mobs casting bar. This could be partly remedied by having the aggro bars always showing and always showing mob(s) engaged. This is a healer specific query. I cant be the only healer thats finding this an issue.

    One of my main gripes with the Raid frames is that they don't fade-out when the target is out of range (usually 30 yalms) or LoSed.

    While this isn't a major issue, it would be nice if I didn't have to waste time checking if someone is out of range before moving.

    As for the threat, all they need to do is make better use of the coloured icons.

    A cast bar on ToT would be great as well.

    I've been asking for this as a Tank since week 1; if someone aggro's something in a run, I have no way of knowing unless they happen to be on my screen or they say something in chat, and by then they're at 35% hp.

    I thought this was what Focus Target was for? You know you can Focus Target right?

    Helps quite a bit when you're dealing damage and healing at the same time. Also allows you to have the mob targeted and still be able to heal the target of it's attacks.

    This, and in 2.1 the Focus bar is getting upgraded so the cast bar isn't covered up by other stuff.

    ...?

    That's what the enemy list is for; it tells you exactly which mobs you have aggro from and which you don't. As a tank you should be checking the enemy list literally every few seconds. Unless I'm misunderstanding you, and you mean someone pulling a mob somewhere else that you have yet to go for and as such doesn't show up on your enemy list, in which case that person sucks.

    Problem with that is when you get into 2-tank situations. Currently there is not a way to quickly tell who has hate if it is not you. Having a toggle-able mechanism that shows "target's target" on the enemy list would be extremely helpful. Or even set an additional threat-gem specific for tank-role. I.e. blue shield gem if the tank (or other tank if player is a tank in 2tank+ party) is the focus of mob currently.

    If you're a white mage just assume you're always about to pull off the tank. I can't wait for addons though which will hopefully have a better indicator with gauges ♥

    Lucavern brings up one of my other issues with the hate list, but what I was referring to is if a mob is unaggrod and just roaming around the map as you're fighting a different set of mobs, and aggros a party member i can't see. That mob that attacked a pt member won't come onto my list, even if they start to attack it.
