Curse

I would like to know when I have a critical hit or when one is scored on me. I propose Anet change the color of the numbers when one is scored. maybe have them be more orange then yellow should be fine. That way we can see how often a critical is landed rather than guessing.

possibly a differant color when sundering as well..and a differant color all together if you hit with both at the same time O.o

You really don't need to see sundering as that is just normal attacks. I think criticals should be differentiated in some way.

I agree

Yup, yup. It's something that would help.
I believe when I played Everquest 2, and they added criticals they differentiated the damage shown somehow. I think the number was bigger or a slightly different colour.

If it wouldn't be too much trouble, I'd like to see this in too.

There are skills to reduce the amount of critical hits an enemy can get. I'd use that skill more if I could recognize when someone is using a skill to increase their critical hits against me.
Right now it's very hard to tell how many criticals are landing on me, if any.

very useful

That's why she is angry.

When the neighbor used to ask my mother how I was when I was a baby, my mother would bow her head down and say 'still ugly...'.

Please spell "critical" right. :P lol @ Cirtical. gotta love those typos.
It would be convienient, but should probably have an on/off toggle. so:

don't see why not. doesn't hurt anyone, but it's useful to a lot of players.

Helpful for helping people how to kite properly, so they avoid getting hit with a critical hit

This would only help on non-assassin professions. Needless to say that is 9/10 professions. Maybe not since staves/wands don't critical.

However for the sake of colorblind, they ought to just make it an option for it to show as -damage (Crit)

for example if 100 damage, -100 (crit)

Even if you think it is useless doesnt mean it is useless for everyone. Obviously not if someone is asking for it to be implemented and it is such a simple suggestion. Would really help when using skills that negate critical hits.

Stormcloud · Dec 26, 2006, 06:25 PM // 18:25

I was under the impression that when you hit for 100 instead of 20 it was a critical. If I am wrong, which I probably am /signed

greyf0x_f0x · Dec 26, 2006, 06:54 PM // 18:54

/signed, any kind of indicator would be good, a visual effect, different text, a different sound effect. Any or all of these together would be nice

Lemith · Dec 26, 2006, 06:54 PM // 18:54

A different color for the numbers and bolded/larger numbers would also help.
