I don't think that this is a bug or anything so I'm going to post this in suggestions:

Life bars in the party HUD only go up to 20, while player screen life bars will go up to... something more than that lol, so basicly even if your character hasn't all it's life bars filled, at the party HUD it might display as if he had. Example: You have 24 life bars filled out of let's say 26 you could have, in you screen it will show you how many there are left to fill, but @party hud it will be as if you had full life bars. that might confuse other players in your party. altough this isn't a major concern update, I still wanted to post this just for the sake of it :)
My suggestion: Pretty simple, make the life bars at party HUD display all our life bars.

Main issue with display of

Main issue with display of all true life bars on the party hud is just space. It works in your personal display because the sides are "Squished" out of the picture.

For party HUD display, they could just start re-coloring the bars from the first one up to signify the excess beyond 20. Fairly standard display style which people will understand with minimal effort, and no extra space required on the UI

No Bars

On the player list, maybe they don't need to actually show individual bars, maybe it can just be a continuous scale from 0 to that player's max. That way the display is more flexible and easier to read at a glance. If the bar changed color too when afflicted with an ailment, that would be nice to know.

I agree; the heath display

I agree; the heath display right now is confusing. This problem is not as pressing now that hearts are instanced, but for some tasks (such as giving someone health pills), an accurate health display would be useful.

However, please don't bump your own thread- that's really obnoxious, especially if you only wait 1.5 hours. If you have a good idea, trust people to notice it and reply on their own.
