1. Ah, honestly I'm not a huge fan of the health bar thing. If we are going to try and directly implement it; I would suggest putting a 'number system' for our charries. *shrugs*
ex.
Health:
Mana/etc:
Agility:
Strength: etc, etc.
If we're not going to directly implement it (as in using actual numbers), I would go for what Yuuji had described up there. "He watched his health take a minor dip, changing from a darker green to a much weaker and lighter one."
2. Mounts. I know we already discussed them before, but what's your final decision on them? Again, I would prefer out-of combat mounts for everyone, and non-attack pets for everyone.
Meh, I have to go now. but I'll have more questions later. Blegh, and sorry for the bad explanation up there, I'm tired.
