That much? I think I'll wait a few days until after I've paved my computer before updating...no sense in having to do that twice so soon.

Challenge ratings and effects should be left on, since NS4 is beta. This allows players to provide better feedback on how difficult/easy a monster is for the given rating. When NS4 goes final (ROFLMAO... sorry) that information should not be seen. You want to know how tough something is, go fight it.

As for monsters...sure leave the CR on, but for players you don't need to know that information for feedback. In addition, it would be really nice if player levels and classes did not show up. I don't know if this is even possible to turn off though...

I have seen it on other servers where they have turned it off so you dont see player level and classes but it didn't make much difference after you play on a server for long enough you learn approx. what toons levels are and classes so turning it off will only make players become more observant.

The only time I think people winge about it is during raids when they log a toon that will work well against the raider lol but yeah as I said will only make it slightly harder having to guess but not much difference from experience.

Err... I would say the setup if fine as is....

else you would have lvl 30's running around in noob gear whacking ppl (as kromix noted on page 1) which would be really funny. :D

what would also be cool is if your name didnt show unless you were partying with someone. but i dont think that would gain much support

Especially since it's an engine limitation out of our control...
