50% Marker on HP bars
Scavenger Rage
/no signed...
CMON! 50% out of 450 - 500 life is not all that hard to calculate!!!
And for the enemies, just make their HP bar a litle bigger then the default and you will see that it is easy as hell to notice when he is under 50%.
Lets try to focus on annoying things that NEED a fix like the chat system and let other stuff that can be done perfectly nowadays alone, at least for now.

Easy, useful idea.
Benefits users of :
15>50 weapons (just about everyone that uses collectors/rares/some greens)
shadow strike
Word of healing
Shroud of distress
moebius strike
Life Barrier (kind of)
blood drinker
taste of pain
final thrust
"you will die!"
serpent's quickness
Mostly benefits you when you are using skills on ENEMIES (key word here) that must be >50% or <50% health for the skill to work.
needling shot
brutal strike
gaze of contempt
deathly chill
flesh of my flesh (sort of)
Infuse Health (maybe)

I like when people critisize/disagree when they actually have no real point.
However, I do agree showing exact hp may be too far, but a little tick on the hp bar? Please... find better things to try and argue about.

It's a good idea, but only limit it to your own party. I would add an extra notch at 90% for eoe etc tho.
Oofus
Few days old but caught my attention and deservers a resurgence.

Simple but brilliant idea, a little tic mark at the 50% point for all players.

I used a ruler to get it as accurate as I possibly could and so far it's doin the trick for me.

Take the number on the red bar.
divide it by two
that's 50%hp.

Signed for halfway mark, because eyeballing too often robs you thanks to a lucky hit point, but definately not for hp display! That completely removes the edge that not knowing your opponent's health gives to the game.
Ever think you could use an English name?

I cant count how many times I used Moebius strike thinking the enemy was below 50% only to find out (by the effect of the skill) that it wasnt.

But only let you see your own percent
Below 50 % health weapons may get a alittle boost in value

i agree with the marker, but not with the total HP display for the same reasons above

Good idea, in whatever form. Displaying the enemies HP as a direct number would out of the question, as stated earlier, but expressing it as a percentage wouldn't give anyone an advantage I think. The ability to view percentages of anyone's hp (self, party, target) would be the simplest solution I think to the whole issue, but putting markers on the bar would work also. The advantage of a percentage is that it's there all the time and there isn't any issue of 'if there's a mark for 50%, why not 75%/25%, then why not 80% for EoE etc etc'.

Just have the colour of their healthbar change when they reach 50 or bellow. Sorted.

There was 25%, 50%, 75% markers on enemy health bar during E4E 2004 preview.
I don't know what happened as to why health bar changed since then. My only answer is that it was "cheating" when executing final thrust for example. This answer was always ok to me when using such skills. But who cares if someone is "cheating", lets get the old health bar back!

This is actually a really great idea. In a game like Guild Wars that rewards precision, anything that limits guesswork is a great thing IMO. Anet is even taking a step in this direction with their recent update of the morale boost counter.

I don't see how anything bad can come from this.
I came up with an idea a few months ago about a full ruler on the bars with larger ticks for 10, 20, 30 etc to 90. Cause there's skills like Unsuspecting strike and Light of Deliverance etc.

Maybe a Skull overlaid on the Health bar at 50% and crossbones added at 25% like the marks for assassins only on the other side so it doent interfere

A Little triangle in the maddle of each bar to indicate the halfway point would not get in the way but it would make it so much easier to tell at a glance.

I dont have a sharp enough sense of precision to visually determine the 50% mark. (3 three syllable words in one sentence... w00t)

How do you say...? Eh... Well, I'm not typing that '/signed' thing I rate threads... ahem...
Well a vertical line would be a problem that would interfere with tex over the bar.
Just make a small triangle in the middle botton of the bar to point the spot:
___________________
E/Mo The Emo PvE
_________/\_________
HP bar turning other color, like yllow would be a proble, since that would be another color change, and we already have two (Poison/Illness and bleeding/mesmer degen)

Finally a good suggestion . And please, anyone who says only a noob cant tell 50% on a bar is just being an annoying ass and they know it, so cut the ^&*( please thanks. There are plenty of times when I really really want to zealous benedict at what looks like 49% but I don't know.
