Boss Modifier Icons

I think this game is amazing and is the true successor to the D2 crown.

When fighting a boss - a lot of text to show the boss's modifiers. It is alot to read in combat. It would be faster and more convenient to the player if there were icons.

Please consider making the Boss modifier info with little visual icons next to the text for faster reference.

Great game - I am going to get alot of people to play this one I think. Well done - you guys are really doing a great job.

Been thinking about that.

In fact even regular monsters in Chaos often have different effects for example skeleton archers could be using Poison Arrows, or Split Arrows...

Perhaps using a little colour coding for the more dangerous mods ?

One indie ARPG I played called Depths of Peril has lots of such icon on monsters and it is not always easier to read. The problem is when you have too many mods it's kinda hard to tell them apart.



Here you can see what at first appears to be distinct icons, however in practice I never remember what they are >_> The green one is easy enough: it's the life regeneration... the others I used to mix up in my mind all the time. One is weak thorns, one is lightning damage, the fourth one.. no idea.

Comprehension problems are easily solved with tooltips. Hover over the icon and a text description pops up. I'm neutral on the suggestion overall.
I think the text is easier to understand than a bunch of icons. It could maybe have an option to switch to icons for those who wishes for it but definitively keep the text one as well.
