Two questions:
1. Where is your actionbars? I can imagine they are 100% faded/hidden, but isn't it difficult remembering all your keybindings and checking your rotation using forteexorcist as your only "guideline"?
2. Can you post your Damagefont / battletext code? And in that case, what addon is it? Just Miks or something more fancy?:-)
In advance, thanks a lot!
Dearest regards,
Secret fan
PS: Couldn't quote 'cause I never-ever post on MMO - primarily use EJ for submitting bullcrap, but I must know your UI secrets! ;-)
PPS: this is for the user "Carebear"
I'm not Care but can answer.
1. Actionbars are hidden, remembering keybinds isn't hard due to muscle memory. Takes a few days at most. I can't speak for Care, but when I rebind everything I play with actionbars shown for a few days to familiarize myself with them.
2. Combat text is most likely xCT+, or MSBT. xCT+ looks like that out of the box, but MSBT can look like that easily.
Yeah I'm using the standard xCT from RothUI (Diablo). As for the keybindings you pretty much hit the nail on the head, playing this game for 7 years and other MMOs for longer you get used to not having to look at what you're pressing and where your buttons/spells are.
For me the best way to learn my keybindings is to set them all up and then hide them. Then you get used to them being hidden and instead learn how to do things from memory rather than by checking every so often. It's extremely inefficient the first time you try to do anything with these new bindings but it's a good way to ensure you learn them rather than just looking!
for your main spells its easy enough, for cds and spells with like a 10sec+ cd, you should use Weak Auras or a CD timer, it helps alot, i have a few buttons on show to see the "situational" stuff like nitro boosts, ive moved away from having everthing visible, makes my ui look a bit clunky otherwise
Edit: How my UI looks now; Drayarr UI!
Edit2: Care, would you mind posting your xCT config?

A little off-topic buut! Anybody have a suggestion for an EU server alliance side? Looking to transfer with my girlfriend but I have no idea where to go, PM me any suggestions
My UI. Pretty much standard Elvui with powerauras and Forte to track my procs, since they're the most important part of my spec.
