Every time I've seen a Grobb wipe (twice) it was because melee was retarded and spawned too many adds for the raid to handle/heal through. Poison clouds are hopscotch.

Never ever got Hal's UI to work.

I think the problem was that by people trying new specs, it was some people that are say, feral druid, trying boomkin, and some people that play a ranged class now playing their DK alt. So I guess they were just retarded.

What is the addon for the boxes that make your chat log/bars look bordered and nice? Also the DPS/Threat addon?

**Noobta** · 2009-02-21 13:45

DPS - Recount
Threat - Omen

**Boyiee** · 2009-02-21 14:18

KGpanels for the chat boxes.

Just cause I like to look at UIs, I'll upload my old one from before WOTLK. Keep debating if I should play it now, but I'm scared of getting hooked:

I cared more about seeing what was going on then some health bars... I know.. LOLHUNTER, but I really didn't need to know that Joe has 12 HP during the boss fight. What was I going to do? Bandage him?

I love UI's with so much empty space, simple and clean ftw.

Wish my PC could handle a bigger fucking resolution than 800 x 600 without it affecting my gameplay.

Also before I get asked:

Code:

/console SET cameraDistanceMaxFactor 4

That allows you to zoom out beyond the normal distance, but not so far that you can't see anything. Fairly nice if you don't care to have 90% of your screen to be filled with your character.

New monitor calls for new UI!

Spoiler: show

TitanPanel
AGUF
Omen
Recount
kgPanels
Simple Minimap
Elkano's Buff Bars
Quest Helper
Bartender
Grid

I'm still learning how to use Grid so its kinda bare for now I think.

**Okan** · 2009-02-22 19:01

If you want some suggestions:
Brisk-
-Lose Grid for now. You're only 48 and won't need it for 32 more levels.
-Get a minimap mod and hide all your buttons around the minimap. Even the title can make it ugly. You know that you are in ZF, do you need the map to remind you?
-I made a macro for /sws bars to hide and show the damage and healing meters. Maybe you can combine this with Omen to show/hide on macro press, but make sure to leave them on; only hidden. And leave Omen alerts on to let you know that you are in the danger zone of pulling threat.
-You can hide the XP bar at the bottom with you having XP rates on your panel at the top. I'd also move the panel to the bottom and then make it partly invisible or even fully and show on mouse over.
-Clean up Bartender bars. You can easily move buttons around to only use 2 bars, also you can hide many bars while still leaving them keybound. I'm sure by now you have a good majority of your keybinds memorized.

For Rivero-
-Hide your sidebars. All the character icons have a button associated to it so you shouldn't even need to see that. If you don't know them by now, I highly recommend start working on that. You should be able to hide the other bar and have it show on mouse-over so you can keep use of your buttons for mount, pots, and what not. It's been awhile, but I think this can be done with combat. If not, just use them from your bags unless you're heavy in to PVP, then you might want to keep it up.

-Lose some bars or as I said for Brisk, hide them with keybinds saved. I'm sure you have them memorized.

-Get a new minimap mod and shrink it down or even hide it if you don't have use for it. I only ever used my minimap for gathering professions and seeing that you're 80, I highly doubt you watch it.

-Hide or use mouseover for your panel at the top. You only have bags shown... No need to really keep that info and it's pushing your buffs and map down a bit killing more viewing space.

-Maybe adjust buff icon size and move them to the top.

-If you keep your addons to a minimum, you might be able to push it up to 1024x768. You have to have a pretty bad PC to not be able to at least get this by today's standards. The two biggest things here are RAM and video memory, it's not actually the processor like more people will think. If you can get to best buy and drop $50 on 2gb of ram, you'll see a HUGE difference. Under $200 and you should be able to upgrade video and ram and then you will have the nice resolutions that most everyone has.

This should give you a tad bit more viewing space. Also for both, go to the Interface options and make sure to scale the UI all the way down to minimal size if you can unless you are blind or have issues seeing.

changed up my UI alot, but I can't get simpleminimap to start in the right spot, it keeps resetting to the top right and I want it on the bottom near the right side.

Make sure you're setting a profile for it, for whatever character you happen to be playing (I also lock/lockdown it as well). I was having a problem with a magical moving simpleminimap when I would swap to an alt... until I made a profile for each character. Fixed the problem right away.

occurs to me I didn't have any buffs/debuffs at the time...

Spoiler: show

Debuffs create a seperate list above buffs

Pitbull --- for boxed unitframes for a cast bar cause Arc's sucks for enemy's, as well as runes
ArcHUD --- for HP/runic power, creates another bar on right for casting/enemy cast bar
Omen --- for duh
Recount -- to see how bad people fail/how badass my lock is
G15binder --- for the random 6 buttons at bottom right
Grid --- to see how bad people fail
vvvvvMikscrolling battle text, use for raids, need to change it around a little, rune strike spams the notification box a little too much for my taste =/

I'll grab a SS in raid later when it's all doing stuff at once

Are you able to change all of that in one click or something? I like how it's laid out.

Also anyone else had Prat installed where it bugged and you couldn't talk to NPCs anymore? That's what happened to me :[

**brisk** · 2009-03-12 01:46

This is probably the UI I'll use for a long time. After many revisions, it looks so clean. Thanks to those here that gave me suggestions.
