HP bars: Should be located under your character and whenever you are hit it reveals how low your hp is for a couple of secs.
Usually you have to guesstimate someone's hp in fights based on their level/way of training but that seems so inaccurate and a lot of times miscalculation can mean defeat in a fight.
I'm sure people can vouch for me in saying that this does help in pvp and a lot of games have used this i.e. nng, bln, etc...
Chakra bars: Self explanitory really but I think this should be Sharingan/byakugan exclusive =l. Considering Itachi basically said to Sasuke "Don't forget the sharingan can see chakra" during their fight and after Sasuke said he had one more jutsu up his sleeve following him using oro kawa.

Yeah this looks like a good idea. If the person you're fighting has low hp you'd be able to tell in a fight by observing him/her but you can't see that in this. I approve. Maybe big hp/chakra/stam bars at the top of a players screen for their own as well so they can keep their tab on a different one (maybe even xp too )

I like this idea alot, like Roy said, it would be pretty useful in PvP. Especially against sound medics >_> Been in more than one situation with them where I assumed they were on the brink of death only to find out they had already healed. Also pretty useful for checking my own HP, I hate having to look at my info tab where my hp and chakra is at. Usually I keep my ninjutsu tab open when I'm fighting

I like and dislike it.
On one hand: The inability to see the hp of the opponent forces you to think throughout the fight and plan for a prolonged fight just in case they have a heal ability or some other method of restoring hp. Having HP/Chakra bars makes the opponent all too predictable as most people seem to become more frantic or desperate when their HP is low. You can usually tell when someone is out of chakra when they start using more melee instead of nin..
On the other hand: I suppose it would be nice to see how low people's HP is so you don't waste valuable chakra and such in fights against multiple enemies. Personally I keep my Vitals tab open the entire time I'm fighting because most of the gen (Oiroke), nin, and tai I use is all macro'd so I don't have to flip between them constantly. Also could be a cool animation to accompany Byakugan's palms showing your chakra draining.

I personally am for the idea for reasons of style. In Byond aesthetics are so very important to the games' health and this would be a nice way to get there. Not to mentions it's a nice "HEY THIS ISN'T IZOU" Flag.
Also knowing such things is useful for combat. Whether you decide to go in for the kill or you're baiting someone else. It'll add to the gameplay

This isn't a bad idea but i don't like other ppl telling what my hp is during a fight that's just me though. I say let it b a verb that can be switched on and off anyone who wants to use it to tell if they are low on hp/ chakra while they are fighting( the idea you have now) and anyone who wants to keep there stuff the way it is while they fighting, or you can still keep the same idea you got now but keep it at the top of screen and nobody sees it at all. It will be just something to let you know when your fighting instead of having to click tabs and by the time you notice your dead. Also people can just start fleeing from the fight as soon as there hp or chakra get low. imo i think you can tell how much hp someone has when you fight them constantly also fighting doesn't really take that long, i think its better when you don't know because when you are fighting and get hit and notice your hp is that low kinda it kinda makes you mess up in a way. Besides sound medic who else has the auto heal thing during a fight? i think if you beat them quick enough it won't matter as much. This is a good idea though either way its not a big deal.

Its not a bad idea nor is it a big deal. Humans will now see exactly how fast you die. It doesn't interfere with the combat at all. In fact if nothing it benefits some players that are able to take advantage of the new feature and plan ahead to the combo that will drain it the most. I approve.

Chakra Bar could be like you character is all blue if he has all chakra and the lower it gets the lower his blue aura gets. This would be a uchiha exclusive i hope?

Hmh...I do like the idea, and its simple enough.
Afew things though... Should the Health Bar dissappear, or stay attached to your char forever?
Should it be above/below your char?
Personally, Im liking the Dissappear unless hit again, and Above Char.

Health bar should only appear if the player is hit by a NPC or another player. After 10-15 seconds of not being hit the bar should disappear. However this is only if you decide to make the health bar under the character. If you make it on the top of the screen I think it should stay up unless you turn it off.

I like it but dislikes it because I'm so used to not having a health bar to watch when im fighting. I like to enjoy the fight not worry about my hp at all because i rarely lose; however this idea might be good.

I prefer just keeping health bar at top of screen having a button to turn it on and off whenever you wanna use it instead of ppl looking at your hp. Just leave it at top of screen to let you know and that would be fine.

like the idea of them being below and disappearing when not hit for a few seconds, and as with the chakra bar thing it should be a doujutsu exclusive thing to be able to see it.

One at the top of the screen for you (toggable) and one that appears under other people when hit, that disappears unless hit again (toggable).

It should disappear when hit again and be below your character.
To the people who are discussing whether it should be a toggle or not, it could be just for you but not when it can be shown to other players; know why? cause those who have concealed hp have an advantage in most cases if not all cases, it's more of a moral advantage but an advantage none the less.

I just prefer it to be a person only thing not shown to other ppl maybe just something to show you during fights which is good enough imo. That's just me though i think others will think the same when it gets added and i can see complaints. I think its better if you just go in and fight i mean one of the few things i get from this is people running from fights and other stuff and instead of focusing fully on fighting they will be looking at there hp bar and etc.
Like quattro said some would just like to enjoy the fight and killing someone without thinking about looking at their hp or chakra or anyone elses own. Some wouldn't really care how much hp their opponent has would just make the fight more interesting.That's just me though truthfully this a good idea just don't think it should be shown to other ppl.

I wouldn't need it to be a person only thing because whenever I fight I keep my tabs on the health and chakra tab considering and I would prefer a visual of others, but that's just me. Yolo.
