Guild Wars 2

Not sure if my last topic got posted but anyhow, I would like to see an update on the agro mechanic in the game and I want to give a example I talked about earlier in a different thread regarding the temple of grenth in orr.

Lots of times Jones has died because some person not knowing they had agro went to close to the stairs that caused AOE’s to hit Jones and YES I KNOW PEOPLE, EVEN IF THEY IMPLEMENT WHAT I AM ABOUT TO SUGGEST, SOMEONE WILL STILL NOT PAY ATTENTION AND CAUSE JONES TO DIE.

Anyhow, my suggestion is to add whoever has agros name under the mobs HP bar similar to like how most other MMO’s do. This would ease some confusion and not only help at grenth, but help in dungeons and make it more team play because then players would know who has agro at that moment and could drop a AOE heal on them or heal them.

As far as i know, the only way to tell you got agro of the boss is by either reading your combat log in which allot of people don’t, or by paying close attention because grenth or the mob would look at you and attack you, or sometimes run towards you but of course agro may not last as long like it does in other MMO’s but still this would really help if you guys could later implement this..
