Overall, the UI improvements are great. But the target damage mini HUDs, while they look nice individually, need to change.

Too much detail! This level of detail (segmented bands) is unnecessary and adds little to no functionality. What's more it adds to the visual noise/clutter on the screen. There is already a lot of detail on the screen, adding more for the sake of having it look like the HUD does not help. The existing HUD works (?) because there's only one of them on the screen. Adding multiple targets with these multiple mini-huds is creating a more visually cluttered and confused UI. The previous version, with a more simplified look are more appropriate. It's really not that big a deal, when you've only got 1 or 2 targets, but anything more than that is headache inducing.

Hope you guys reconsider this and change it in an upcoming patch.

Definitely want the old target look back... the new one is really hard to read with multiple targets... Put an option to revert to the old 3 "hp" bars at least!
