I like this idea. How about adding marks at 25% and 75%... it would be nice to see this on enemies too.
It would also be kind of neat to have an option that allowed a player to set the % at which monks would start healing. (Example: While set at 50%, my monk wouldn't heal me, or anyone else until I dropped below 50%.) I think this would really improve energy issues that hero monks can sometimes have. I would really like it if 1 of my monks started healing right out of the gate and another monk was a bit more conservative and selective.

like to see this so i can know when to use what skill like ["finish him!"] 'n stuff
hate it when i use it on a guy with like 51%

payne · Aug 01, 2008, 04:47 PM // 16:47

meh....could be useful but unnecessary really IMO

its not to hard to get 50% hp (well less of actually

_)

markers would probs be one of those miniscule things people think "ok cool - then later on its O-well an extra thing to make the game lag"

/unsigned sorry - but thats my opinion on this ()

---would rather see a nerf to ursan or a new area to clear

/signed would be handy but i would prefere a percentage at the right of the health bar, either in the health bar or outside, on teammantes and enemies.
toggleable

Man I guess if your around long enough shtuff comes full circle. this is an OLD discussion. There is a work around to this if you yous a TXTMOD, and yes, it has been ok'd to use by anet. I personally use the Dark Glass UI because it has the 25%, 50%, 75% lines and it also has agro radius for spirits etc on the mini map.

Check out the mods availible on the GW Wiki HERE

I have never had an issue with the Dark Glass, even if you did, all you need to do is reload the client. I am sure there are more txtmods out there but these have been used by hundres of players without issue.

There is a problem with things like Endure Pain and Deep Wound.

Under effects that decrease or increase maximum Health, the 50% is no longer in the middle of the Health bar.

Either they fix that, of they add a little triangle appearing and moving around the Health bar when the 50% is not in the middle.

Big, big, big problem. This screws up my [["Finish Him!"] about half the time on enemies affected by those.

I'll say /signed to this as a toggleable option, but there's already a mod made for Texmod that allows you to see 25%, 50%, and 75%, plus I feel like knowing where 50% is on the bar is part of the feel of the game.

Luminarus · Aug 02, 2008, 06:15 AM // 06:15

I like this idea... wait a second: *checks wikis list of texmods page*

Yup, there are several mods with this... just upload one of these if you feel its necessary, saving time for anet so they can actually fix the game up.

Remember Texmods are NOT against EULA

I hate running Texmod though...for some reason, sometimes the graphics are screwed up when I enter portals, causing me to minimize the game and maximize until it's fixed. I hate it.

Maybe it's not against the EULA, but it's not supported.

Stupid Shizno · Aug 02, 2008, 05:40 PM // 17:40

maybe its not supported to make threads that already have a viable solution?

/notsigned..i already made those lines on my monitor with Sharpie...It works, try it.

I only used Texmod for Cart'ing and it was pain even then.

Using a not supported third-party program is not a viable solution.
Using TexMod is neve punished, neither treated.
I will not use something that will negate my rights to get support.

I doubt those Texmod mods were already known to the mass public on 09-11-2006.

wow, cant believe it took until page 8 for someone to bring up deep wound. The 50% mark would have to shift based on adjustments that effect maximum health, and that would force the game to load a new graphic every time. Seems kind of like a lot of work for something with such little impact.

Sure, it's frustrating when it doesn't work, or when you're relying on the energy from SolS and it turns out they weren't quite at half health, but just wait a hair longer. I just use it when my necro hero does...he seems know know when 50% is every time, without fail.

and the 15^50% weapons are idiot-proof. They do their extra damage on their own, you don't need to use a skill or time anything out to activate it. It just starts doing more damage as the condition is met. I think its a great idea, but too much to implement for too small of an issue.

I'd support something that shows where the halfway point is when an enemy uses health boosts and the like, those skew it otherwise.
