Post your UI

[Commando]

It's a downward angle. Are you really that pedantic?

No no, not at all, it's great. I mean, you could reduce your viewing distance in your settings and get a frame rate increase, and it wouldn't make any difference to you as your addons prevent you seeing that far anyway.

You're impossible sometimes..

ShamanUI


LockUI
(changed abit atm, pet bar is moved to above the other action frames and above that is where the cast bar appears)

[Suzi]

Well, thought i'd put Suzi's up, since it took me like forever to do =< Pic is slightly annotated since things like the second castbar and target/focus frames arn't particularly obvious since they're all on the same person

[Commando]

Is Konata a part of the interface, or did you just add that to the screenshot?

[Jazm]

you should have seen an older screeny of his.. he had 2/3 of them on the screen... i believe they are lovely flash overlays so they are a very important part of his UI

[ash]

other than that weird anime crap, looks good.

whats that thing below your action bars with 4 variable length bars ?

Something shapeshifting related?

[Suzi]

its umm, lifebloomer.. Hot timers basically.. Can't say i'm exactly happy with it, its pretty ugly, but couldnt find a prettier alternative, since the corner dots on grid are way not accurate enough for tank healing or something, or like, Vezax or something

Edit: *Cough* and yes, Ian, Konata is a very important part of the interface. She's there for moral support, dancing fun, more moral support, more fun, more dancing, and more support.

I'm not kidding, I either click or keybind every single one of these buttons in PvP. I hope this will help you understand why I'm so enthusiastic to argue that hunters need to be so, so much better in PvP than other classes to be able to do anything. The LOS issues are absolutely devastating a lot of the time, and while they affect casters to some extent, hunter's are hurt by far the most.

1976 rating in 2v2 2k looming, and then I will be able to call myself truly excellent in pvp. I didn't mean for this to be a bragpost but there you go.

[ash]

talking action bars means nothing

I've got disenchant on my action bar zomg.

I'm a muppet, I have very little keybound.

how precisely do you type

9 + Shift Q = Scatter Shot
0 + Shift + E = Silecing Shot
Shif + B = Kill Shot
Shift + H = Rapid Fire

on your keyboard?! 0 + Shift + E is wtf 9 + Shift Q is almost as bad

Do you have 8 inch fingers or something? The women must love you.

Notice all of vince's keybinds are in the same area of the keyboard and non of them are click action bar abilities.

I believe vince's list has expanded since then aswell, because of 3v3. Before he only had one partner to deal with HoF, HoP, HoS, cleanse, heal, now he has two (when applicable).

Everyone thinks they have the hardest class/abilities/x. Then they try a different class in PvP and realise, hang on, there is more to it than that.

At the end of the day, every class has strengths and weaknesses. Ret paladins are limited by the GCD and the decision on whether to go offensive or defensive. As for hunters? I have no idea.

I don't like to drop hints/tips of our 3v3 but hunters to me feel like the worst target for our team to focus on. You guys can kite forever when teamed with a paladin (and pretty well without too).

If you want something to complain about. here is my current list:

WASD - movement
q - voice comms
1 - Muti (S) - garotte
2 - FOK (S) - ambush
3 - Gouge (S) - cheap shot
4 - Kidney
5 - Evisc
E - mash stealth
F - mash sap
X - Unsheath weapon (very important)
Mouse button 4 - Cheap shot

I have a feeling G does something but I can't remember.

Nothing else is keybound.

Now that takes skill (!)

[Demonheart]

Oh heh, what I meant by 9 + shift + Q is that you can either press 9 (which I don't), or Shift + Q. I have binded most useful skills on the left side of the keyboard, under shift. I'm not that illogical

And indeed Ash, hunters are very nice in 3v3. I just happen to play mostly 2v2 atm and you can imagine the frustration against some comps. 3v3 is actually maybe even balanced. In our 3v3, people noticed they can't kill me with 29k so they just instagib our warlock and I can't do much except Roar of Sacrifice him, drop traps and give him Master's Call. I only just went Marks though so once I have the 2k I will focus purely on 3v3!

[Vincenoir]

Don't think there's any doubt hunters take skill but they're a lot harder to lock down than a warlock and dodge a crap load more than a mage, if they're at range, they hurt, constantly.

I think i prefer them to elemental shamans though :p

Grats on your rating! Keep it going!

[ash]

shift B/H is still pretty mental

I just remembered:

C is unsheathe weapon
X is disarm
G is kick

every time I think to myself "I should keybind more stuff" I always think how much of a pain it will be before I properly learn them, and hate not being able to do XYZ when I want to because I pressed the wrong button. Right now, clicking works for me... Not too sure what would improve if I keybound stuff. milliseconds? as a rogue, milli seconds don't mean much vs anyone except another rogue.

I could be wrong (and probably I am!). Maybe one day I'll change it and go off on one about how its very important and I can't believe I didn't change sooner xD

[Yasu]

Yasu:

1. Crusader Strike
2. Divine Storm
3. Hammer of Wrath
4. Judgement of Light
5. Excorcism
6. Hammer of Justice
7. Flash of Light
8. Holy Light
9. Cleanse
0. Hand of Protection
-. Divine Shield

The rest, I click. It's almost the same for my other characters too, all I use is a sap macro for pvp on my rogue, and the Hand of Freedom macro you might have seen me use on An00b. Oh and an auto-tracking macro switcher on my hunter.

[Demonheart]

2k reached this morning!

I don't understand how shift + B is mental though. Little finger on shift, thumb or index finger on B. I use one of these things though:



I've been using this keyboard for years, and when this one finally does break, I will buy another one. Whenever I use a normal keyboard these days, I'm unable to even enjoy gaming with it. I guess this type of keyboard gives you a much better feel on where your keys are, I never have to look at my keyboard when I play, whereas if I use a normal one I'm going 'arghghhh misclick this keyboard is terrible!' A lot of the people I know have number keys from 5 onwards keybound, because in normal keyboards they're all in a row and when they have to click them frantically during games, they will mess up. That doesn't happen with this baby, either.
