Talk:Raid target icons

From WoWWiki

When accompanied with hunter we usually use cross (X) as mark for target for the pet or rarely as for target not to touch. If this practice is widespread then may worth mentioning it on the page. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Holczhammer (talk · contr).

The only really widespread practices that I've noticed are that skull is 'kill first' and X is either or both of 'kill second' and 'off tank'. Aside from that, it's usually 'who wants what for (whatever they do)'. If I'm setting it I usually go by the number of points... Skull first, X second, then circle/condom/nipple (none/1 point), moon (2), triangle (3), square, diamond, star, (all 4 points but progressively pointier.). Usually don't need that many of course... Most commonly, people have their own favorite icons they ask for. (This is, of course, all my experience on one server...)

The fun comes in when someone wants to change the widespread tactics, and use skull for kill last or something. All kinds of confusion then...--Azaram 03:32, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
