I'm a veno, when I do tab, I'd like to be able to tell for sure visibly who I am targeting....

Can we make it so we have an option to change the name of the mob to red or something? The target ring is often hidden, and other mobs that come close often show their names in the same green as the target when you get close...so....

Is this an option? To show the target name in red at some point in a future patch? It makes it so much easier!!!

    There already is a way. When targeting a mob, their name is always visible above it with a target cursor below it. No, can't make it red or anything.

    I think you're misunderstanding the statement. I believe s/he means that when a pet is tanking 5/6/7 mobs at the same time and if you're close to the mobs, their names all show, which you get confused which mob is being targeted. Also, if the mobs are huge and they're all jumbled together, like those giant yettis in the north, you can't see the yellow ring on the ground.

    @Sandaili: I think I've found a solution to this. There is a yellow dot to the left of your HP bar. click on that and you will see a red bar above your head. if you target a monster, that red bar would also show above the particular monster you've targeted as well, but untargeted nearby mobs wont have that red bar. The only inconvenience is having you see that red bar above your character. Give it a try :-)
