Re: [Raiding] UI and Addon Thread

smaller than I had expected... that's good news

This looks good. If I change my UI this is similar to what I would like to end with. Now how to get there from here...

Where do you have your raid frames at? Does this support hidden bars or pop out bars for things like professions?

The Raid frames are on the left above chat and below Omen.

I'll post a cap when i get home.

As for the pop outs I don't use anything like that, I just have a button on the far right for each profession and or DE'n etc.

snuff is like me, simple and clean, a proper ui

It looks clean currently....

Add targets, focus, party frames, Gladius, Grid, Lose Control, Power Auras (Weak Auras) & arena frames - and that screen looks a lot different.

However, I agree. I like a minimalist setup only showing what I need - I just need to see a lot of stuff...

true but pvp is different, minimal targets, i can understnad need to know when in an arena setting, you dont have the blizz ui telling you hey this guy is casting something so gtfo.

Yeah... no DBM for arena.

Gladiator LOS is an incredible addon however that announces cooldowns - strongly recommend for PvPers.

What addon's modifying your buff/debuff icons on the top right?

That's Raven.

Top row is "long buffs", 2nd row is "short buffs", and not shown is my Debuffs, which, as noted, takes the form of bars to the right of my toon (so they're a lot easier to see).

Raven is nice because it has a very flexible set of criteria for what goes in what "bar group", but you can just select a default like "long buffs" and it preconfigures everything.

Oh, another nice part of Raven. Blizzard has this annoying restriction that 3rd party addons cannot click off buffs in combat; I have no idea why. If you can see that black box to the right of my target-of-target, that's a special "click off buffs" section. You have to specify exactly which buffs you want to click off, so its not arbitrary buffs, but at least I can always get rid of Hand of Protection (and Ice Block; I share profiles).

Thanks for the writeup, I'll check out Raven.

Hey Nick, if find some time tonight, you think you could share the WeakAura strings for your buff/debuffs?

Sure. They're not super interesting though.

I have a dynamic group with bars, and throw a new line for what I want to see. Red for debuffs on target, blue for procs, light blue for CDs. To make new bars, I just duplicate an appropriate one and change the name.

Hopefully I'll be able to export just my warrior ones; otherwise you'd get a large assortment, because I have a dynamic group per class.

Basically, I wanted a better ClassTimer. I used to use NeedToKnow for that purpose, but I wanted a group that grew as more bars were added. NeedToKnow is still very nice if you want fixed bar position.

That would be awesome. I am much better with adjusting something that is already built, than I am building from scratch in WeakAuras. I tend to get "dear in the headlights" with all of the available options in WA, lol.
