Remove the (PVP / PVE ) tags and messages.

I think we know when we're in a PvP or PvE area, so why the tags? All it does it is bug me.

Then there's the messages saying the skills have been altered to the PvP version. Is that really necessary? I really do know when I'm entering a PvP area.

Aaand the there's the status icon in the corner of my screen. I think that, if I enter a PvP area, I know I'm in a PvP area. Another useless icon in my screen.

The whole dividing of PvP/PvE was a bad idea to begin with, but bugging all the players with it the pointless icons/messages etc is over the top.

/remove them plx

i agree that the little icon on the enchant/hex bar is overkill, but the (PVP) next to the skill is useful because you can differentiate them from a pve skill... i mean it jogs my memory every time i see it.

and if little (PVP) signs popping up when you get hit is annoying you... well... it just seems like whining. i think the real reason behind them popping up is because in PvE the skills are normal and do not have (PvE) next to them, and appear as normal skills.

armed with this info, i would like to see you try to and convince anet to switch it so PvP is the regular and in PvE you get big (PvE) signs and messages.

also the update in general was a good idea. it will help the balances because they can be harsher, faster, and without consequences. what exactly are the downsides? because i dont see any.

I agree that t he icon is useless, I'd also like to remove the (PvP) from skills, and instead of that just show messages on the chat like "Light of Deliverance has been changed into PvP/PvE version" or something like this.

The icon is pure junk, + It's ugly :3 remove pl0x.

Not everyone is as smart as you. What about newer players who just got to RA for the first time? Don't they have the right to know that their skills are going to be different? Shouldn't there be something to show them what is different?

I agree with all of it, including the ugly icon in your effects monitor (it's not like it's there while you're playing, so what harm does it really cause?).

No.

/NOT SIGNED

Add a toggle option please (as after all UI-updates).

I can differentiate too. But 90% of people can't and continue to bring with Shadow Form farmers into PvE after it's been nerfed. It's not a big deal, just cope with it. Less QQ moar pew pew.

+1 we have a winner.

First thing I was gonna suggest when I saw this thread but I see I have been beaten to it

/Signed for toggle

Yeah, bingo.

It seemed pretty logical to me that they use the status icon as the way to toggle the pvp skills.

/notsigned, just ignore it?

How would an icon... have anything to do with a toggle?
Something server sided should never rely on a visual aspect that's on the player's behalf.
Because if that's the case, what if you alter that with texmod? you get pve skills in pvp? zomg!.
Either way, you make no sense.

i think dat the icon is gud for nu players hu might not know about the diference betwen PvE and PvP skillz

/notsigned

The PvP icon and the (PvP) tag at the skill description are the best indicator there is.

Cyber,,,,,,,,hw can you ignore a message showing up saying "X skill has changed to a PvP skill"?

/Signed for toggle.

/Signed for being able to toggle (Didn't sign yet :3).

/signed for getting rid of the announcements, i dont need to see how my skills or hero skills everytime i go to gh or somewhere ty.

Can we close the thread now?
