<DIV>In my opinion, things should work like this:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>1) The con color of a mob should always reflect their difficulty to you. Currently mobs may turn grey based on the group level but then reflect thier personal difficulty towards you when not grey to the group.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>2) The red aggro border should always mean this mob will attack (no matter what color it cons to you). This is similar to the new change on test.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>3) The no treasure/no xp icon that pops up on breaking encounters should be used on all mobs that you will get no reward for. This means that if you are in a group a lot higher level than you, you may see some green mobs with the no loot icon. Also, if you were in a group much lower level than you this might remove the no loot icon from some mobs that are grey to you.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I think this would keep all the attributes very spcific and make it easier to understand how a mob works by looking at them. As things stand grey can either represent low difficulty and no loot or high difficulty and no loot based on your group situation and that tends to bother me (especially since there is a no loot icon from when encounters are broken that could be used again).</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Anyone agree, disagree, or have other suggestions?</DIV>

They need another method to desiginate what mobs are agro and will attack because colorbind people (like myself) cannot see the red border and will not know what will agro until its too late.</DIV></DIV>

<DIV>I have very color deficient vision also, but im pretty sure you can change the color of that in the options if you need to. I can't necessarily tell its red, but I haven't had a hard time telling it is there (thats just me though).</DIV>
