**Justg** · 05-26-2010, 11:05 PM

What do you guys think?

**Dizko** · 05-26-2010, 11:07 PM

Yep.

Sounds good.

**Xanthia** · 05-26-2010, 11:18 PM

Let us see the health bar!

**Obliteration** · 05-26-2010, 11:47 PM

Yes. Yes. Yes.

**Edatx** · 05-27-2010, 10:59 AM

Please. It makes the game more tactical.

**Sayishere** · 05-27-2010, 11:04 AM

PLEASE YES
i mean i would of thought this feature would have been implemented on release, but please add it, i go toe to toe with a warrior sometimes and just wonder what health hes at so i can judge the situation, if im doing no damage to him hes got evasion up, (i know you can see dodge dodge in the scroll combat text but its tedious)

please add it asap

**Distinct** · 05-27-2010, 11:13 AM

Yes please!

Initially i thought not seeing the health bars would be a cool idea, but it just doesn't work. Maybe if the graphics of your character changed as it took damage it would be ok, like being blood stained or having broken chicken wings and what not, but i doubt thats happening.

Let us see the enemy health bars please.

We don't support personal 'opinion' or whatever you call it. Get out!

For the record, You should only be able to see the health bar of your target, not the whole team u are fighting at the same time.

**Demarrer** · 05-27-2010, 02:25 PM

I think this question has been answered.

I was just going to mention that. If a player wants to assess the situation and which target is most vulnerable, he should have to individually target each enemy.

**Tatanka** · 05-27-2010, 05:47 PM

No. .

Hey - sorry for not responding to this thread when it was introduced...

I am very strongly against showing your targets' health bars in Arena combat. As a result I have convinced the rest of the team here at Spacetime to hold on making any changes to the system for now

My reasoning is: you can target from any distance in the arena and once you can see health bars you will (wisely) attack only the weakest character on the opposing team. This will expedite your team victories but in many multiple games this will get very boring... and will motivate anyone with less than 100% health to quit the instance to preserve their Kills / Deaths ratio (which will become much more meaningful in the future as we develop leaderboards, etc.).

Pocket Legends PvP is way more fun with this thin shroud of mystery.

So - this issue may certainly come up again (as do all issues relevant to PvP) over time - but for now, there will be no enemy health-bars in PvP Arenas.

Thanks,

- Cinco
