Hey all, Ferek here.

I just started pikeman about a week ago and I'm loving it. Already 2/0/1/1 and almost 3/0/1/2. So getting to the point, because it is hard to tell whichpool the poison, bleed, etc. is damaging, I think the devs should color code the bleed, poison, disease, fire, to blue, green, and red. Obviously blue would be mind, green would be action and red would be health. Let me know how you think of this idea.


Thanks,

Ferek

I think it makes sense. I was using ActionHit1 and they started bleeding so I assume their action is bleeding but who knows.

well the action bleed in pikeman bleeds action....the only one im not sure on is TKA sometimes with moves they get a bleed and u have no idea which pool its on, they should do something like that, i think its a good idea,

and do it with poisons and diseases too so if ur in a group u can all work on the same pool

Pike has action-specific bleeds, swordsman mind, fencer health. In addition, for high wound weapons or high damage hits, there is a chance for a very weak bleed that comes from that pool that was hit. This happens to me a lot when using hit3. It's a very small bleed. 1-10 points usually.

It wouldn't be a bad idea, especially in PvP. I'm sure just about everyone rotates through a couple of polearms, but there's no real way to tell after you've landed your firstpoison if you've landed another one unless you watch their HAM's is there? Although even if color coded you'd have to wait 10 seconds or so until you see the color poison thing appear so it's probably not that useful.

I always watch combat spam to see if the hit landed and assume the poison has stuck in thoses cases... This distinguishing between pools would be very helpful especially in large groups where one person uses a bleed, another uses a DoT weapon, and a CM applies a poison...
