So I was reading some of the posts and one thing that I saw was someone complaining about people using what should bepassive actions in areas where people congregate. Defense skills, jedi buffs, etc are what should be considered passive, meaning they affect noone else, and the only reason they have any visual effect is because the developers wanted to make it look pretty. Now, as these are passive, should they be considered visible from an RP standpoint? It's one thing to have your bug killer out or to unleash the power of greyskull in public but would something that only takes a concentrated thought really be considered visible beyond a furrowed brow or closed eyes?

Though I feel everything like healing and self buffs should cause visibility....the effects shouldn't be visible to anyone but you, and maybe other Jedi. Also, the buffs being visible under your HAM bar to everyone is a Killer. I RP as a Jedi in this time, but usually keep FR1 on and run an Aura macro always being prepared of BH's. But, knowing that those are being seen by everyone around me, ruins the RP for me.....
