So I'm struggling to find the best color settings for combat, so figured I'd ask you folks.  What do you have your set to.  The default is too hard to read with the dark red.  I switched to purple but it's a bit better but still struggling.

What do you use guys use for combat that's easy to read?

"This is a game that has elves and magick, stop trying to make it realistic, you can't have them both in the same place."

"We have over 100 Unique Logins a week!" Checks who at 8pm EST, finds 20 other players but himself.  "Thanks Unique Logins!"

I play with a dark background. This was a default for MushClient that I stuck with across all muds.
I didn't know there was color specifically for Arm until I installed a Mudlet GUI, and sorta went with their default.

Some changes I did:
I use a variety of lighter colors (shades of white, greys, and sand [of course]) for information like communication.
I use reds for combat-hits, and greens for combat-misses - seems standard.
Objects are a light blue, because its a good contrast.
Psions are a pinkish color... because why not.
