Is there some way that the nametags of dead bodies can be changes in wvw so that there is an indication that they are dead? My guild’s been noticing that lately when there are a number of dead folks around, it makes it look as if the other server has people ready to attack when it’s actually just one or two guys and their dead friends. I’m sure we’re not the only ones that have bombed an area that has mostly dead people thinking that they were stacking up.

Perhaps if dead names were grey instead of red, or maybe an option in F11 to grey them out. Obviously it’s still necessary to see so we can tell if someone’s getting a res, but I see no reason for them to remain so similar to living enemy names.

Downed needs to be grey. That way I can focus on who to stomp

Dead needs to be invisible/see through kind of like windows aero. I still want to see the name in some form so that I can spot them in a hidy spot then corpse camp if they are dead in a keep.

I would love being able to grey out dead enemy names. I’ve done the same bombing mistake you mentioned loads of times and it’s a total pain.

Maybe not flat gray because that might make it too hard to read against all the particle effects? I think black might be alright for legibility + differentiation…but I’ll take any non-red color, really.

edit// CreativeAnarchy, isn’t there already that red symbol above downed enemies’ heads? I think that’s more noticeable than the names being greyed out….

Still needs to be a different color than alive and I’d like to see it different color than dead.
