This will be resolved next patch.Since the last patch it seems mobile health bars in the EC are totally screwed up.
They just don't appear, or appear ages and ages after you come on screen, or if you actually 'click' on the npc or mob. Mobs that spawn when doing treasure chests used to have their health bar pop up instantly on spawning, now they don't appear at all or only when you run on or off screen.
Trying to find npc's in town is near impossible, used to be you could run around town and as you came in range of them their names would appear in the mobiles bar, now nothing, unless again you run out and back and out and back etc.
The health bars also don't disappear when the mob dies, but remain on your screen until you manually close them. This is super aggravating. I have not changed anything in my settings but after the patch for the tc changes it started happening.
This is driving me insane, any one else experience this and @Kyronix can we get a fix asap please.
This will be resolved next patch as well.Please investigate Show Name All under Options -> Overhead Text as it is not working properly either @Bleak. People have to come onto the screen twice for their name to show up. As for NPC's and vendors, you have to run onto the screen twice to have their names over their head. It is affecting currently game play as it's not just a issue on test shard 1.
Health Bars dropping is a Custom UI issue which will need to be updated to work with the latest client. I have provided details to fix issue in your above link.Yep I have noticed the same thing and originally thought it was just Pinco UI but it appears to be the default client as well.

I have submitted a bug report via UO.com but does that even work? When you submit a bug it just goes back to the main page, no confirmation that it even got sent.
