From a distance.....there will be haarmonyyy....but no NPC names?
I tried searching for this, but couldn't find anything. Maybe it's just the way things work on this server, but I can't figure out how to see NPC names floating above their heads from a distance of any more than a few meters. If I see a mob in the distance (gonna try to stop humming that song now) and I run towards it, I won't see the name above it's head until almost the last moment. I can target the NPC/mob from a long distance away and see its name in my Target window, but it's irritating running into a crowded room and having to individually click on every mob to see what they are. I never had anything like this in the Live game, so not sure what's going on - there I was always able to see names from a great distance. In fact they eventually changed it so that names increased and decreased in size depending on how close you were to a mob. I don't really care about that, but I would love to see NPC names from further away then 20 feet.
So, is there a way to set how quickly a name pops up above heads? It doesn't do it on PCs, only NPCs, so I'm guessing that this was purposely implemented on NPCs for some reason to make things a little more difficult. But I'm kinda hoping there's a way to change it that I haven't found in Options yet.
Thanks!
