Topic. The owner should be able to judge how damaged an enemy is by their Mecha Knight and also be able to see their MK's health at any time (perhaps add its health bar under the party as if it were another player).

You only see your own damage
You only see your own damage in order to avoid confusion and general clutter. A MK wouldn't add much though.... and I'm curious to see how effective those guys really are.

Agreed, with both WindOwl and Starlinvf. It's sensible and wouldn't overly clutter the play area the way all-party damage might - although even that could be offset by, say, making other players' damage readouts semi-transparent, and/or displaying them in players' personal colour.
Personally, I don't see why we shouldn't be able to see all damage. If it was reality, we wouldn't just be able to tell how much damage we did, we would be able to tell how much damage anyone did (to the same extent).
So why can't we see all damage? (perhaps have an option to disable this if it floods numbers too much/lags your comp)
