Health Indicator

Post by Mairae Auvria »

Why can I see it on one of my characters all the time, but have never seen it on the other no matter what the red bar says? Is this just a matter of the change in the system of not seeing everything on your own character?

I'm not understanding your complaint

But if you don't have a red bar in your other character, it could be because s/he's too hungry to regenerate health.

Either that or you confused the health bar with the mana bar.

I am talking of the new health indicator when you click on a character. When the health is low is says wounded etc. on one character. On my other character no matter how the health is, it says nothing.

Ahhh, didn't know about this feature -_-

Logically, I think it has to do with your perception...

I am hoping that isn't the case, at least for others to see if a character is wounded or not. This can be a very helpful feature and possibly prevent ghosting yet if perception has an input, it won't help some.

It depends on perception and distance to a character. You always get a detailed description by "examining closely". (in the context menu)

If I click on one character, I get a message along with what they wear and carry that they are wounded if the health bar is down. On the other I NEVER get that message even if the health bar is almost gone, clicking on your own character shouldn't make a difference with perception (perception attribute is 12 in the character I get no information of health with).
