I don't understand how you guys live without necrosis.

DoTimers is awesome, as well.

Here's my interface:

The only thing I used Necrosis for was timing my soulstone, timing DoTs and handing out healthstones with one button.

Trinity bars' cooldown timer took care of counting my healthstone down by dragging the item to my hotbar, Chronometer did the job of timing dots about 3x better then Necrosis ever did, and soulwell took care of the healthstones.

I will make a suggestion for Autobar though. Automatically puts whatever consumables you need on a moveable, size configurable bar on your screen. Auto-targets bandages (No targetting yourself, or in the case of rogues, using a bandage and hitting F1) and even has options for a health panic button, where things like pots, healthstones/tubers and the like can all be on a single button and all you have to do is spam it to get health.

..

Lots of alliance on my server who PvP have that feature.

Sorry for not responding to this sooner.

If you have FuBar (and it looks like you do) grab ClockFu from here.

I'm guessing my interface makes your skin crawl, then!

I've been looking to redo it, anyhow. Maybe I'll fuck with it tonight.

The basic goal was to put things on the bottom and open up the view in the middle as much as possible

I didn't put much thought into the organization and didn't want to find more mods to make it look better

I can't set mine up like Sean's because I don't need 3 full bars of buttons so it looks dumb

Also I don't want a combat log visible at all times because SCT is more than enough

I have to redo my bars in a little bit to make room for more shit.

Also I went to the two chat setup just for aesthetics, not because I need it. I can't stand completely opaque windows, though.

here's my latest attempt (refresh if necessary)

I'm contemplating moving AGUF down like Sean has it, but since I usually need party frames for healing and I like the placement the default UI uses I probably won't

Make that player window smaller mang.

Since you're using FuBar, get FuXPFu, then take the exp bar off of your HP/Mana window.

My party frame - which is usually hidden, I don't need to see you grandmas - runs horizontally along the top of my screen, with two players on either side of the map.

But yes, as a healer, I much preferred it descending vertically along the left side.

Updated because I liked Sean's and Kegwen's.

Thanks for the ideas.

A couple other things.

-Is there an addon that tells me what quest items will give me the most money in case I don't want either of them?

-What addon adds map coordinates to my actual full map when I hover the cursor over the spot?

Cartograher's a good map addon.

Edit: while folks is asking about mods, does anyone know of one for moving friend lists from one character to another?

I believe Auctioneer can do that, but I haven't used it in quite a while.

CTMapMod does.

CT is the devil. Use Cartographer instead. Cartographer also has gatherer replacements you can use.

Or you could use Gatherer which now accepts data updates from Guild members and Group members, even if you're not in the same areas. Makes it a bit easier to find out where all the nodes are.

I've recently undergone a bit of UI surgery. Result:

One bar, pages instantly upon pressing Shift, Ctrl, or Alt.

Still thinking on what to do with the party bars. I cannot just dismiss them as a Priest.

What addon lets you shove all your buffs in a box over to the side like that? This thread got me to futzing with my UI and I have every to where it is acceptable but my buffs are still the unsexy default version.

I am confused. How can your bar change during combat? Didn't blizzard remove that in 2.0?

It just pages to another action bar on a keyhold. I'm using it now, after reconfiguring most of my cooldowns to bar one.

What Blizzard didn't want was things that changed automatically during combat. Your Sinister Strike automatically switching to Riposte after a parry, or Overpower, Mongoose Strike, etc.
