What's that?
Eliminate the health and mana bars in group windows. The only thing the window should display is a group member's name.
If a healer wants to be in "healer-mode" he must cast "Discern Vitality"; under the effects, he can see how damaged his group members are through magical glowing auras around their bodies. The closer to red, the closer to dead.
It's a pretty big change that definately wouldn't fit in current games since the player bases would cry information nerf. It could've worked in Everquest 2 but certain developers didn't have the intuition or balls to try it. I personally think it would be nice for a healer to have to actually look at other characters to see if they're injured or not, they shouldn't have an extra sensory perception (health bars) that is never explained or accounted for. Heck, you could even make low level versions of the spell less accurate then higher. Have it so that the color only changes at every 20% value, but at higher levels it have a full gradiant scale that changes every 1%.
More vodka please.
