Shocking Execution - Should Add A Target

I had posted my complaints about shocking execution before. I play a TR, I understand the the concept that they are supposed to be a burst damage class. People say it's the only way to kill someone in pvp, I personally don't use it, I have a few videos of my tr in pvp, it's only 3.1k and I don't use SE, twitch.tv/mafesio.
That being said I'm not bash it or tr's that make builds around it. As a quality of life adjustment that would make it much more bearable would be to add a target like the hr's, maybe purple, I don't know. It's not a daily you really want to ignore, but if your playing with friends over, or listening to the t.v., or music, it's a horrible a horrible daily. I'm going to take a match today for example, I was trying to hold a node, it was 3v1, I was going to have to leave, but it was fun fighting all three, it probably went on for 30 seconds, then of course I got hit with SE, I wear heaphones when I play games, I prefer to listen to music. I could have rolled if I would have heard it, it would have just added to the excitment. I could take my heaphones off I know, I guess that's a valid point, but it's just so much better listening to music.
A target would make all the difference in the world. I challenge the developers to play a pvp match with the sound muted. Play a regular PVP match with no sound, 5 v 5 once with no tr's and then once with tr's and you will see what I mean. With no tr's in the match, playing muted is more difficult but still fun and not detrimental, then play with tr's and shocking execution, watch how fun that is, even if your another tr with shocking execution. Then if you really want to emphasize the point play the same match with the tr's but don't use SE and it will be playable again and just as fun as with the sound on.
So there is a simple test you guy's can try at the office, instead of playing in silence, put headphones and listen to music while you pvp, you will see that the only time the the match sucks, wheather you are a tr or not, is when the tr's are using SE and you are listening to music. That one daily shouldn't force us to play in a silent room with the game effects on and simple target would fix it, there is such a short window from the actual daily to insta death anyway it's not like a putting the target on someone would render it any less effective.

i am wondering when you listen to the music how you avoid enemy attacks. IF you are fighting to avoid gf bull charge etc and from behind a cw cast ice knife how you will able to see it coming ?
That being said, like Tyrion pointed out, there are hearing impaired people out there.
Lol. I play with dimmed lights and im old so i dont see very good. Thus I want everyone in pvp to be forced to move 5 times slower so I can see them coming and have the time to react between tea and cookies
