Can we get a directional notice from where attacks are landing?

I think it would be a cool upgrade if you could get a splatter of blood or something from the direction you were being hit from. It would help out with them stealthy arrow attacks. What does everyone else think about This? Or is there an add on that helps with this?

    Do a forum search for a poster "Miat". Send him a tell, he can probably help you.

    If there's an add on that helps with that its ridiculous, its basically cheating. People moan on here about pay 2 win yet buy add ON's that basically help them win..

    I just think it's kinda lame when you get sniped or heavy attacked and you turn around without any clue or direction from where it came from. This would let you react and have a general idea of where it came from. Stealthy builds could still stealth and reposition. I just find it kind of odd that you can get shot in the back without knowing where it came from almost like your toon doesn't even feel the attack. It would just make it more realistic is all.

    It's called Flames of Oblivion. If you're a DK, try it. It indeed helps with nightblades.

    I do use fob but it's got radius and it has a cool down. The one that gets me is the snipe. You get hit and they go stealth you have no clue what direction it came from. If you had an indicator of some sort you could have a general but vague direction to where it came from. You could even add an ability later in the game for misdirection even or confusion.

    Not saying yours is a bad idea, just not too fussed about sniping NBs. A nuisance, obviously, but I think I've only ever died to them in the context of a larger fight. DK reflects, Warden absorbs (Shimmering Shield), NB cloaks, mag-anything shields...

    Who said anything about wings? I always have them slotted. Snipe doesn't bugg me the fact that you have no sense of direction when you get hit bugs me.

    I would be fine with adding this if they removed Miat addon. Being warned projectile is coming (is cheaty already tho most 1vX folk already embraced it because they feel they deserve to have advantage) and direction is came from would be soo broken.

    Lol had a grand overlord accuse me of using said addon/cheat because i kept dodging his noob attempts at sniping me.

    People dont realize abilities have animations and sounds you can look out for? Especially the snipe sound is so obvious.
    its 2nd nature to dodge roll when that sound goes off. (results in me dodge rolling for nothing on occasion, especially @ bruma but better safe than sorry lol)
