I've noticed some characters don't have a single arrow and others have one, two sometimes three of them. Are these alignment related?

What's always killed me about the system of arrows is that it's missing for even/+0 con, -4 con, and +4 con. If it's there to give colorblind people an easier time, you'd think they'd've made grey, white, and purple enemies have different patterns. Those breaks in the system tend to make people dismiss it out of hand as meaningless.

I've never really considered it, other than acknowledging there's something in place to deal with the concern.  Is what you are saying also what our colorblind community states?  If so, it sounds like fodder for the Suggestions forum to point a need out to the development team.

Wow.  I have been playing this game since day 1 live and I have never actually noticed those arrows, I always used color.  I am still amazed that after all this time I can learn something new that is old.

 

Thanks.

I had no idea the con system applied to other players. Neat. 

I mean, it's just comparing your level to that of your target's, (I think it also accounts for their rank/tier).  Heck, even inanimate objects have levels...

It's kind of weird when you think about it.  Why does a window this small...

...need to represent the target's level in no less than THREE different ways?  Color coding is obviously not always great for everybody, but are the arrows for people who are colorblind AND bad at math? 🤪

I mean, just imagine what it would be like with ONLY color conning. No other context provided.

 

 

Remember what a large portion of the community can be like. Chat would be ABSOLUTELY lit up with complaints about orange, red, and purple enemies being way harder.

 


Some people just don't grasp the basics until smacked with a clue by four at least three times.
