Icsist, which UI do you use?

**Sajier** · 11-15-2006, 10:31 AM

Here is an example of my UI. I have made a few modifications since this, but its close.

Moo UI!

Halten i dont really use a certain UI.. Its just some helpful add ons with viewport and discord art / mods.

Trolling forums, heres my UI =/

**Icsist** · 11-15-2006, 12:33 PM

i think its neat to see how other people are set up especially for your specific class..

Icsist, notice that my UI is minimal in terms of what buttons show. If I am in Bear, only those buttons show. If I am in Cat, only those show. If I am in Caster, my healing buttons appear and my current Cat/Bear buttons becomme my Caster DPS buttons.

I also recently added Healing buttons to the left near my CTRA for quick click-heals of the raid.

Below my buffs, I have Mark and Thorns that show if I don't have them and they have a macro that targets me and casts...so I lose the buff, the button shows, I click it, I get buffed, the button dissapears...

Flexbar is going to be getting a nurf when the expansion comes out...so don't try learning it just yet. They are redeveloping it (I'm an admin on their forums.)...it's just not going to have some of the combat functions that it used to.

yeah ive experimented abit with Flexbar, it seemed alright, but I felt that it was unnecessary for me. I use to have the healing buttons like that as well.. but now i have an add on for my keyboard that is basically a nother set of keys labelled 1 - 10. Thats what i use for casting my healing touch spells.. so i kind of went away from the whole " click target, click spell, click target, click spell thing".. It was difficult getting use to at first, but now i dont think i could cast healing spells with my mouse anymore..

Thats why you probably found it odd that I only have 2 healing touch spells on my cast bars as a resto druid :P

Indeed....notice I, as a Feral Druid, even have 3 HEaling Touch Spells on mine...which ranks do you use?

**Icsist** · 11-15-2006, 04:49 PM

With the keyboard addition i have 10 buttons.. for all my ranks. I still dont have the AQ one BTW. So basically i just use my best judgment on whatever rank i feel will get the job done without overhealing.. But I still feel i overheal too much.

2) You don't need KTM in Razorgore.

3) Why do you have your character picture taking up the bottom of your screen? O.o
4) Swap your Titan bar from the bottom of the screen to the top. Having all that information cramed with your buttons makes it look crowded. Placing it on the top also gives your eyes more exercise since it will cause you to look from the top to the bottom and make what you put in the middle more meaningful to you.

1. background and boarder are not visible.. I made them visible so people can see where they are on my screen. So they dont say.. Hey, put this there.

2. Same with KTM.. I only keep it up when need be.

3. Character picture is there because I had nothing else to put there.. I originally had my map there, but I guess i just cant get the hang of it being down there... Im so use to looking up in the top right hand corner to see it..

4. Titan Bar.. Same as map.. I got so use to it being down there... I tried to put it up top, but its hard to get use to change.. Although its probably a smart thing to do... Ill give it a shot again.
