What is reasons not allowing us change target circle appereance on ground.
My vision isn’t the best, and I’m having a lot of trouble seeing what I’ve targeted and how i should position self in a mess.
Here should be legal way imporve better visibility for circle borders and target face dirtection.
Have you tried adjusting the accessibility options and reducing ground clutter?
Also have you turned on enemy names plates? The one you have targeted will have its nameplate highlighted.
You can also turn it on for friendlies if you need that as well (mostly for healing).
I would say its pretty much impossible to use the ground circle to know who you are targeting for someone with perfect vision, so I dread to think how you’ve come this far with less then that!
Yes. I tried it. Is not helping me in raid.
The question still stands.
Why blizzard restrict addons to change ground clircles ?
Addons are only allowed to customize the UI layer of the game, the ground circle (although technically a UI feature) is in the game world…
Allowing you to change graphics in the game world would lead to the potential of all kinds of exploits (make things that should be hidden much easier to find would be one example).
Maybe have a look at some name plate addons? and see if there is one that displays things more to your liking, with regards to targeting in the game world this is likely the best you will get.
Are you talking about the circles for reticle spells like Metamorphosis/Infernal Strike or are you talking about the circles that appear under an enemy you have targeted?
If it’s 2nd one then you can make it slightly more visible.
- System > Outline Mode: High
There’s also Interface > Display > Raid Self Highlight: Circle & Outline if you’re having trouble seeing where you’re standing while in a group of mobs.
Also make sure you have System > Projected Textures enabled.

No. I use Plaster. He’s fine. But i ask about target circle on ground for detecting boss face direction and position self better as melee near circle borders. Most time target circle is not clearly visible while mess on ground and random speceffects from 20 peoples.
If game is potentially broken when you allow change single texture(selection taget circle on ground) then seem something wrong with code and coders.
If i can select things then why i are restricted have their clear appearance at screen?
its because its in the game world and not an actual part of the ui.
If they allowed changing of those textures you could do things like make stealthed players big red targets or making players visible through walls.
it could also be used to make certain spell effects really obvious… although you could also argue such things are easily trackable with weak auras and boss mods in pve.
you are totally right that the default circle sucks, but openning it to modding isn’t the answer… blizz need to improve it… with possibily giving us more options.
