Hey Guys,

I like what has been done to let the RECEIVER of [skill]death pact signet[/skill] know that he has been rezzed (starting countdown)....IMO it would be beneficial if the Caster had the same Icon to know how much time is left. I didnt see this suggested when I briefly searched. Yes you can always guestimate time, I just think it would be a small implementation that would work nicely for both ends. Tell me what you think.

I like the idea, and it's not like its a balance issue if it gets changed.

I haven't used it lately, but I'm pretty sure [Vengeance] works the same way. It could sorta benefit from this.

It would be the only instance of a single condition having multiple expiry timers so there's likely a technical reasons why they didn't do this.

Perhaps make it like monk's holding multiple enchantments for party members but the only difference is make it as a timer with name written while having mouse on it?

I personally use it a lot, though I rarely have to use it on multiple members within 120secs, but it is purely a good idea to make me aware of party members' status.

Vengance only effects the guy who's been resed by it, and he does have an icon.

I like this idea. It's important for the caster to know how much time is left too. Sometimes you can't sit still and wait it out, either (like if you're going for masters on a mission, 2 minutes will often screw you over).

/signed,

I think mechanics-wise this would fit better into "maintained enchantment" maybe, since it is able to show multiple copies of the same enchantment on different people.

The caster is under another effect triggered by the skill.
So it would completely normal to have the effect icon too.

Would only be logical if some kind of info would be give to the rezzed person.
