How to create an effective UI

Recommended Posts

Yeah - won't argue on your points because you're totally right haha. Just something with it doesn't sit right w/ me! Anyhow, taking advantage of WA allows me to fill that gap between those two addons. Will absolutely be using Needtoknow w/ alts though.

To give you the example. Put my cd's where you have yours and disabled my incomming heals. Under those are my debuffs I would like to have shown. 

 

I want to explicitly know when i have: Expel Magic: Fire, Fel and Cheated Death.

 

Of my normal abilities uptimes I want the order: BF->SnD->AR->Cloak->Feint->Revealing Strike->Crimsom Temptest in that excatly decending order. It's the same with my cd's and debuffs, i choose the order. 

 

Clearly shown bandits guilde over my own bar and simplecps over enemy.

 

NeedToKnow also gives you the options of have more spells tracked in the same bar separated with commas.

 

I plug it so hard because I was really happy with my transition from Classtimer only 1 week ago, and I know you will be 2. Oh and you can also change color at will.

edit: carrn- i've noticed w/ the combo points string that when I have anticipation stacks, sometimes the red bars won't all populate, but all the purple anticipation will. does this reproduce for you?

 

If you haven't used a finisher (i.e. SnD) that procs Anticipation, the purple bars won't transfer to red bars. It's normal for the mechanics of it. Or at least I think so.

How do you change the order dynamically? I'd like to get rid of the gap  /collapse them if a spell is activated before others in my NTK list (see screenshot for evasion not in line)? I think that's why I preferred CT before - couldn't figure that out. 

 

I'll track just about any self buff (cloak, evasion, sprint, flurry, etc.) so this would occur a lot during a fight w/ our situational survival abilities.

I dont think you can as spells are locked to bars. Else you can place another group of bars ontop of your main grp to make the gsp smaller. Or separste a bar further up with a comma and add evasion. This is a messy solution though as it wont get shown if the main spell is active

My assumption is that it's not set to "own only", so other Rogues are confusing it. I'll fix it tomorrow, I realized today that RvS was doing that as well

I really need to update the screenshots... I'll get that done tonight

Made my own UI with WA : http://youtu.be/ufuPZXv0heM

 

- Track bandit Guiles (with a sinister strike count)

- Combo point & anticipation point.

- CD's : Adre rush / KS / Vanish / Premeditation. At the same location, the icon will show the remaining buff duration on you (for adre rush & KS), once you don't have buff the icon fades into a cooldown remaining transparent icon for the related spell.

- Slice and dice & Revealing strike : Blink red when not up | Desaturate when there is >10 sec remaining | Plain when you need to refresh it (<10 sec).

 

Pros : all-in-one, regrouped icons.

Cons : alot of timer number's so you may feel flooded.

Would you mind exporting your Bandit Guile string?

Carnn, are your combo points bugging on Kromog? I can see Anticipation stacks, not the red CPs though.

I haven't noticed an issue with it at all... I'll ask.

 

Is anyone else having that problem?

Yup i did.

However rogue are not supposed to go in the hands are they ?

Shadowstep on the jump > Cos with glyph > Feint with Combat readiness = Damage mitigated enough. :p

With the Combo points in your UI with weak auras =o is there a way to make it so they don't show up out of combat? :) and how do i get the dispatch alert to show up? >_<

You can set it to only load in combat, if you like. I don't do that cause then I can't see any leftover points when combat drops, which is more of an issue for PvP 

 

Come to think of it, I don't know if the Dispatch one is included. I'll check when I get home, give me a couple hours and I'll update it. I don't play Assassination anymore, so I don't keep it as updated as I could

I had my poison drop off during a boss fight the other day, so I modified the poison reminder aura from this thread to pop up when I'm either missing a poison or when there are less than 15 minutes left on my poison.

 

Here is the string if anyone else wants it: http://pastebin.com/aJiCw8zU

Did a massive UI overhaul earlier this month when I reformatted my computer. Everything should be fully updated with new WeakAuras strings etc

      This is an introduction to weak auras for beginners. While the addon has definitely improved, I still find a lot of my casual friends becoming daunted of the addon. So I made this video to help them and others. Please let me know if you have any feedback. :)

      Hello! 
      I'm pretty good with weak auras and even some lua code but i cannot for the life of me figure out how to make this weak aura.
      heres the basic function i want:
      Prototype Personal Decimator - only fires a missile when you are at least 10 yards away.
      I want the icon to show when I am <10 yards ( too close) to my target to remind me to back up. Once i am >=10 yards, i want the icon to hide.
      it sounds simple but i cant figure it out
      can anyone help me figure this out please ? :)

      Hello all.  I usually update my Elvui using the Tukui client.  But for some reason today their webpages are giving me a "page not found" error message.
      Is anyone here using Elvui and if so, are you able to find their webpages?

      I already know how to make a progress bar that will simply track how much time is left on my DoTs on my target and tick down.

      What I want to do is create a progress bar for my DoTs that will track their duration as being out of a fixed number (say, 24 seconds), instead of always updating the maximum of the bar to be whatever the duration of the DoT was when it was last applied.

      Basically this is what I want:  http://imgur.com/ltzKg11
      Please help!
