You are attacked alert

When chatting, or in back pack, house, etc., it would be great to have a "You are being attacked" popup, similar to the craft success/failure display if a Mob or player attacks me. The current system allows us to be killed without ever knowing an attack is going on.

Once in a while, we think we're safe for a few to send a message, but another player comes by and spawns in passing. In real life, we would notice we're dying and stop looking in our bag! Help us out Compbatant!

Hmmm...

Well i always stay at safeplace or check if theres a mob nearby before opening my bag and if im grinding for mobs i wont open my bag for long.

If i remember correctly you will be notify if you are attack by players its appear below your screen and dissapear too fast too on top of that sometimes its not noticable consist of black and small letters

If you are attack by mob or tower while looking at your bag well i think you wouldnt get any alarm or signal you will just be surprise when thats skull appear xD

Theres the new (information) too where you can see the name of your attackers or players that attack you but if you are in clan and the one that hit/attack you are in clan too theyre names wont be added to your information or maybe its just a bug coz one of the player name that attack me is in clan and it appear at my information too.

Hmmm

If we are attack while looking at our bag i think its more useful if the alarm or signal that we get when we are attack is to make the bag frame blink a little red make the frame like its pulsing like heartbeat just a little.

I was thinking just when you're in your bag/out of view. And would be first hit only, like with player attacks. But agree, there could be issues if not done right.

The bag or chat window flashing/blinking is an interesting idea too! :)

Is there a way of differentiating between PvM and PvP attacks?

The first you don't get notifications as suggested and the second you do.

There is an alert already when you are attacked by another player, so maybe any alert received while in the backpack could trigger a flash or something. This would include being attacked, leveling, or clan alerts from what I've seen. There are plenty of other times alerts pop up where you would not be in the backpack screen.
