Guild Wars 2

There are a few issues with the character Icons on the minimap I though I would bring up.

1: Downed, it is hard to see if an ally is downed as the character icon covers that player.
2: Ping, it is impossible to ping (shift click) the map where an icon is location (any icon, including points etc)
3: Friends. Previously party members showed up as blue dots (other players as green dots). This is more required for Team Q / Hotjoin. Team Q so you know where your teammates are without having to ask (in the case of 3 or 4 man teams + 2 or 1 add) and hotjoin to see which is your friend through the see other other players with the same class.
