Situation: In a group where a player has been downed, then another player gives half his health to revive him. Until he is revived there's no way of knowing he has been given health, this leads me to run over and expect to give health - whilst receiving a second or two of invulnerability. Yet the player already has health and i have the potential to get hit.

I know there is an animation of two hearts for a second or two when this process happens. But nothing remains, and ive been caught out by this too many times.

Suggestion: Leave an animation near the knight - or on the left hand side near his name which notifies that he has been donated health by another knight.

Smply the small bubble with a winged hearth that appears on top of you when someone already revived you should be visible to everyone.

Exactly. Only a small change but an important one IMO.

@Juances

I'm going to assume that's a suggestion and not an answer and +1 your idea.

Yes!

+1 to this. I don't know how many times I've just done the bomb-lifting dance around an already-revived teammate, but it would be great if I didn't have to again. Granted, a good party might try to communicate to each other by saying something like, "I'm already up," but sometimes it's hard to pay attention to the chat feed in the middle of a fight.

If you click on the downed

If you click on the downed knight's name in the top-left you can check if they've been revived by whether or not they "revive for X e" option on the list.

True, but in the middle of a fight, I don't think most people will take the time to do that. You could similarly argue that if you walk up to the revived player, you won't see the UI indicator for reviving them. However, since the actual revival interaction is a little tricky to get sometimes, most people will probably try pressing the attack button before actually seeing if the indication is there. I do the bomb-lifting dance on top of people who've already been revived because my framerate rarely allows me to see that indicator at all, so I instinctively press attack when I'm near downed players. If there was a constant post-revival indicator, I wouldn't have the problem.

Speaking of that half-hearted notice...

It's very, very rare that I get to see the health-split animation. Maybe because I'm playing from Asia. Might be related to attacking animations used in place of carrying animations.

+1 to this, by the way. Bombers need this to prevent flowerpotting downed knights.
