Couple of questions

You ever have those nagging questions from the game that you just for some reason never ask, and you get to 20, and yet still have no clue.

Well, here are two of mine.

1) How do you do that thing that tells the party how much energy you have?

2) Is there a way as a monk to know what buffs/debuffs any person in your group has on them, so that you can either rebuff or remove a hex? I keep seeing skills that say "remove hex from ally, ally gains 120 healing" and stuff like that. Like to be able to see if its not hit or miss.

to answer #1 hold ctrl and click your energy meter. this should tell the party how much energy you have left.

You can control click on almost anything on your UI to keep your party updated. Since you're a monk, if you have someone selected, and then control click a spell, it'll tell them what spell yo'ure using. Really helpful when you're rezzing.

#2, there isn't anyway to know what has been cast on your party members unless they control click on the conditions they're under.

Try ctrl+click healing seed, or ctrl+click on all healing type spells when healing someones pet. Then when the pet still dies and the owner see's that you casted 20+ heals he might get the idea that pets are a bad idea in some areas.

Conditions turn your health bar a different color. I might be alittle off here but bleeding is an off red, hexes are pinkish, poison is greenish. Is there a yellow, maybe disease? The problem is when someone is under more then one condition/hex. Since purge conditions removes all but hexes then all you need to worry about is the difference between hexes and anything else. By watching your health bar and your groups, then noticing what type of spells are being casted you'll get a good idea who is suffering from what. Another way of telling the group what debuff you have on is simply to ctrl+click on the icon, upper left. But that might be tough for some to do.
