Guild Wars 2

Is there anyway to customize where and how big I see my conditions appearing? I know they appear right above my skill bar but I want it somewhere else appearing in a larger size. This will also be very helpful in pvp. Also, I know I might me asking too much but choosing a specific boon in the interface to appear larger than the rest of the boons on my enemy for example retaliation would be great for customization.

I agree. Honestly, I think the boon/condition display system is in need of an overhaul. The idea that all of the icons are similar fits a certain aesthetic style and looks nice to a a degree, but its not a good gameplay interface.

Other games use a variety of icons with different images and sometimes shape, but most importantly colors. The way human brains recognize color is just much faster and takes less attention than the way we differentiate similar images. With these various icons, its easy to recognize a bunch of buffs and debuffs while maintaining focus on the rest of the interface/battlefield. With the current system of uniformly shaped/colored boons/conditions, it’s much more difficult than it needs to be to take note of these various statuses while maintaining attention where it’s needed elsewhere.

On that note: why the kitten are retaliation and fury so similar. wtf.

This is certainly the most egregious.
