UI, the Rogue's Silent Partner

Edited by Caera on 12/15/11 11:22 AM (PST)
Earlier I was asked for a ss of my UI for ideas on an add-on configuration. It got me thinking, we can see each others gear, and show off our shiny epics but the one thing no one ever gets to see is the UI you've crafted yourself. Everything we do in-game goes through our UI. I know I'm always curious about what other people are using and how. Always looking for some nice new idea to make my UI better.
So let's share our custom UIs, and maybe learn a few new tricks in the process. If you can, include your add-ons listed along with your ss in case people like what you have and I can keep track of popular/new add-ons. Let's keep it clean, no sniping one another over preferences. My UI (Updated 15/12/11): Out of Raid/Combat: http://imageshack.us/f/593/uioorooc.jpg/ In Raid/Out of Combat: http://imageshack.us/f/818/uiinraidooc.jpg/ In Raid/In Combat: http://imageshack.us/f/687/uiinraidincombat.jpg/ The add-ons I use, most of which are shown in the SS are: Bartender, DBM, IceHUD, Power Auras, CPRedux, Poisoner, Recount, Omen, EventHorizon, OmniCC, Prat 3.0, SexyMap, MoveAnything, Gladius, Tidy Plates, Threat Plates, DispelBorder, Grid, and I Interrupted That. // NEW // Just starting to customize your first UI? Don't know where to begin? http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/2140264314?page=4#79 Some examples of various macros for many common situations: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/2140264314?page=5#84 Rogue Power Bars I'm not using right now, but have in the past is a great alternative to EventHorizon as well. I have Power Auras which is a very powerful add-on that can do a lot for you, I highly recommend it, and one day I'll even learn how to use it well. |

This is it at rest...
http://i53.tinypic.com/33oifkm.jpg This is it in combat... http://i54.tinypic.com/30jjxb8.jpg For those asking, it's Tukui, modded by Elv. The precise pack is Elv's UI. ( http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/fileinfo.php?id=17749&so=&page=3#info ) I'd suggest you turn ALL your addons off and then load this in, the rest is completely customizable from there. |

moveanything, rogue power bars, cooldowntimers2(?). Could use some decent name plate to go with it. |

I don't think I could describe how I'm feeling now without a doll in a therapy office. =P Edit: stupid language filters >_> |

Great idea for a thread. Caera I'm curious what add-on you're using for combo points and also for those rounded Health/Energy bars? On a side note, Flask of the Winds for only 50G?!!

I added a list of my addons to my initial post, to answer your question directly: The CP addon is CPRedux, and the rounded health/energy bars is IceHUD. If people really like the thread feel free to vote sticky, I'll monitor this thread either way and keep it up to date with whatever it might need and post interesting new add-ons I find. Give us all a place to share interesting UI tricks to make life easier on us all, and help out newer rogues looking to step out from the default UI setting. In the meantime, keep the awesome UIs coming, I really like what I've seen so far. Some nice setups and add-ons. Edit: @Sporaticqt I can't say what everyone is using to move unit frames, but I use MoveAnything. Which let's you customize the placement of pretty much any UI element you want. 2nd Edit: Yeah flasks are good price right now, sometimes I really like Gorefiend. |

I agree with you Power Auras is an amazing add-on, and I firmly pledge to one day figure out how to configure that thing. Then from that day forth use it for all kinds of amazing things. Right now I use CPR just for simplicities sake, count the blocks, they turn red when I get to 4 and should use a finisher, and I'm golden. IceHUD also has a CP module, but I don't like it as much. |

MoveAnything Power Auras Classic OmniCC LoseControl Gladius Chatter(for looking at links people send me) Only mods I run with. *Edit* A few macro's that came to my attention substituting for addons would be listed below. #showtooltip /use [button:1] Mind-Numbing Poison; [button:2] Crippling Poison; [button:3] Crippling Poison /use [button:1] 16; [button:2] 17; [button:3] 18 /click StaticPopup1Button1 This helps me set up my posions very quickly left clicking the tooltip puts mind numbing on my mainhand. right clicking it puts crippling on my offhand, as well as middle mousing it applying crippling to my throwing weapon. For Pve You would just substitue the posion names for button:1, 2 and 3. To track diminishing returns have my cheapshot and kidney shot tied in with a stopwatch #showtooltip Kidney Shot /cast Kidney Shot /sw 25 /sw play Cheap shot is basicly the same thing but to /sw 22 instead of 25, and garrote is 15 I believe only downside is this would only track only stun or scilence one at a time. But either way that's what gladius is for. |

Power Auras>CPR It is a bit overwhelming at first sort of like how pitbul was, when I used to use that late BC. But after your first aura it's pretty simple especially if you just look back at what you've already done to double check. |
