Can we get a video that goes over, like, "Liquid's Week 1 for War Within" where you go over the prep for a new expansion and what your players are expected to do in that time? Obviously no need to divulge specifics but just to get a sense of the overall level of play, mentality, and progression to be at the highest level? And how much time goes into things like planning leveling routes for your raiders, planning gear acquisition week 1 etc?

@@TheRoyalAnubis i dont know im trying to figure that out as well

I love the idea of gamers grading eachothers UI's as if any of us are organized or have any motivation to spend time on a UI. 99% of players fucking toggle anchors, move shit from time to time, "oops, those health bars are slightly overlapping, I'll fix that later" 5 months later: "Why are these health bars overlapping?

the DH at 28:00 is a legend. he downloaded luxthos UI and enhanced it with the most confusing hieroglyphics

I love that I get to see Ben's UI here because I use the same concept for my healthbar being in the middle and people hate SO much on me for my UI (Zeff UI on Wago) because it doesn't follow the normal trend of Player Left, Target Right but I really think that UI is so so personal and for me it work. Awesome video :)

I've been using a widescreen, 21:9 not the gigawide, for years and to be honest I do think its very useful for WoW, sometimes it helps clean up space in the middle by moving unnecessary windows to the sides like the chat window or minimap. I found it particularly useful on Fyrakk cause if I angled my camera the right away I could see the orbs during phase 1 coming across my screen giving me plenty of time to react. Also makes it easier to keep all enemies and mechanics on screen for a fight like Council of Dreams where the bosses are running around constantly

Love these viewer UI/setup videos

1:50 When I started in mop I remember getting headaches when I played WoW, and when I after some time moved my health bar/enemy frame closer to the middle of the screen they disappeared. Thats how bad it is.

5:30 is a perfect way of showing absorbs, like its so obvious and as a healer you dont wanna waste too much time seeing who you need to targetheal

I love the UI ratings videos. Would love it to be a more regular thing

27:15 Idk why but the nameless raid frames are hilarious to me. That warlock really is the main character and we're all just nameless NPCs

i love that the editor is throwing shade at max, best editor keep them forever

WHOA WHOA WHOA WHOA MAX. I FEEL ATTACKED. MSBT PORKY SINCE 2007

the super wide picture is probably compressed to be able to share it on discord, as the original pic probably goes way above the size limit for files

The first few minutes of this video, I agree. I try so hard to get crap out of the middle of the screen cause that's where my view focus usually is at, and I pay good attention to my peripherals as well. Although at the same time, I jerk the camera around like a whip so I also don't use my peripherals outside of boss fights.

That's what I'm thinking but damn that ret ui did us rets dirty. That's an ass ui lmao

1:30 I still use the OG style with frames up left, buffs / debuffs top right, and action bars down at the bottom. I like the clean look, less clutter in the middle. I'm using a 27" QHD panel.

what addon are you using for your UI and can u send a Import String for the Settings as well pls? Yours looks pretty clean i want that 2 mate ! :D

Decursive right now is usually used for the sound byte every time someone needs a dispell and then you just regularly dispel with a mouse over macro from frames, but it is impossible to completely remove that frame so thats probably why that resto shammy had it on the side almost invisible

1:50 in and I already feel called out lol

I still have my debuffs on top right but moved bars somewhere around middle... I still play with the default bars, having abilities both at bottom and right side of screen... Ive also kept me wa's to a bare minimum only using some extras for my class, dragonflying and for any bosses if needed

Max’s view into the minds of us raiders is everything I wanted in WOW content

Yo I got a question not about the uis but about when u launch a character why does it look different in the selection screen is it an Addon?

Dude I need that guy with the transparent frames to show me how to apply that to my raid frames so they can be like 60% instead of solid

Holy shit my brain couldnt handle all those things in the middle of the screen. I have 3 smaller actions bars in the middle two longs from top to bottom and thats it. I got my healthbar and the enemies over my 3 action bars and thats it.

ive been playing wow since 2004. I was born in 2001, so its fair to say I grew up pressing keys for my dad and over 20 years of experience I know how to make good UIs. Holy crud, what are these UIs XD

I still use decursive, never even thought to change it to something else xD

Never had an addon for my ui, default baby!

Thinking about atrocious addons I used, during Cataclysm (back when that was retail's latest expansion) I used an addon called "Comix" solely for the amusement I got from landing crits on the target.

The only thing that bugs me about some of these is the fact that the cameras are always zoomed out. I hate playing with the camera zoomed out like that.

i heal mythic for my guild and pove decursive as a glance over to see if any dispels need going out. just its just really easy to see

@FrairBear

I mythic heal as a resto druid and the only addon i have is decursive. I use base game UI. Im fairly new to wow so decursive is helpful to have rather then relying on my mouse overs since idk what i can and can’t dispel since i have potato memory. Easy to see, easy to use.

As someone who started playing 6ish months ago when wotlk dropped, I still use default ui with a 27inch monitor.

I have the same healing standard ui as him, it might not look as clean, but I have the boss bars on the right side, special abilities goes off mid top screen, so I continually uses my eyes all over my screen so I don't miss anything happening in the room, because iam an old school player I only need to see the mechanic once to get it so I don't need auras to tell me what's happening other than when a player is going to get hit by a dangerous ability

As someone who completely agrees that default MSBT is awful, especially because of the Porky font, but if you configure it properly, it’s MUCH cleaner than random floating combat text cluttering the screen everywhere every single time that you AoE. Just need to change the font, remove sticky crits, reduce the size and opacity, disable the Static window, and turn off all notifications except for entering and exiting combat. Trust me, it’s MUCH cleaner than default Blizz UI floating combat text.

People are not the same. While you may have trouble when information is spread & not focused, others like create a system & purposefully divide them across the screen. At least half of the information is situational & can be looked at when the situation demands it (brain will give you a que when to take a quick peek). There is a reason why MMORPG UI can be modified & repositioned by the user..

Honestly it doesnt matter what your UI is as long as you are comfy and perform its fine. I look at Yoda for example man doesnt even use a whole as Weakaura bar just Procs, buffs ect for his class and got all his bars in the middle. I thought for the longest time i cant tell anybody that mine is the same but oh well :D

probably not common but I play only with controller and use the addon "consoleport" for ui. when I play aff I either have a wa or an older addon called warlock wizz that puts dots around the middle of the screen on the sides of my character

How do I get details to look like 26:55 ? Anyone know the texture?

I think placing everything in the middle is stupid, partially for the reason that was mentioned in the video, but also because you end up blocking a lot of the middle of the screen, where there'll often be mechanics going on. I use a very minimalistic default-like UI where I have my hotbars at the bottom and the side bars and I have the raid UI on the left side. Most of my information is therefore on the edges of the screen, which means I only have mechanics to worry about in the middle. If you tend to have tunnel vision then that's obviously not good, but you'll only reward tunnel vision more if you place everything in the middle, making it even harder to get rid of it.

How do you get that text font in the beginning?

My question is can you share that desktop wallpaper? 😂

23:44 made me LMAO so much -from a main mage.

I use one but I am visually impaired so it allows me to increase the size of all my mods which makes it easier for me to see important details. Mine's only a 34 inch but it is helpful.

I only heal really, i keep my HP frames pretty small it blocks way to much for me if they are big and less mouse movement between frames

Decursive used to be huge when debuff frames were worse. I used it on my mage ALL the time/was required

Hey there, question for all the healers (especially decursive users). I'm newish to WoW and very new to healing. For cleansing, I've just used the standard mouseover through healbot. When I first saw decursive I thought it'd be annoying to have to move my mouse away from the frames and then click to cleanse. I thought it'd take more time to do that and that using my mouseover on normal frames makes it more clear who I'm even cleansing. I already have my frames change color based on the type of debuff affecting someone so I'm doing fine with that too. Basically I feel like I don't have any issues with the way I already do things, tend to even have top dispels when I raid, but am I just totally missing something that would actually make my life easier here?? I'm seeing so many people saying they love it.

@AboutAbout123

3 ай бұрын

Hey, not a healer, but I think its good for dps with dispells. My main is a mage and I use it because I don't have party/raid frames within my vision to mouseover them, and I only dispell when its needed for me to help out healers. You could always use it as just a extra source of information, not to click on to cleanse, just to see if you missed any dispells. Other than that I think dispelling how you have been is much better because, like you said, it's just more clear who you are dispelling and you don't have to move your mouse away.

I'm a healer main, to this day I use Grid. Grid customization and tracking goes hard. Like, I actually can't wrap my head around healers that don't run Grid or default frames+WA.

Because the Grid founder stopped active on-time support for it a long time ago as their life became more busy, so over time it's gained more bugs and problems than is worth using compared to others that offer the same and more customization and tracking. This as someone who used it since Wotlk live as a healer, but as it gained issues swapped to Vuhdo and discovered I could replicate my frames but also I now have access to 2-3x more options, to the point it's honestly overwhelming at times.

10:55 Gcd tracker is so bis. I stream my char progression and watch the vod back to see what I can do better/ what I did wrong. It’s great for learning your rotation as well. Record yourself for 5 mins then watch it back and question every button press.

I dont think a custom ui is worth it the wow standard ui does everyting really

as a healer almost everything is mouseover for me, it's so fckn easy

I imagine it like a batter's box in baseball. You're fucked if your UI is in the center of your screen and your vision of the close-proximity of your character is compromised. Nothing belongs in the middle except damage numbers. There's a reason top PvPers use near default UI

I've personally have trained myself and used my UI to make it so I dont have to look at my bar or skills to be optimal

Just play warrior or rogue and deactivate raid frames. Don't need that ish

I legit play with standard UI and only a few macros / bare minimum addons. Maybe time to upgrade soon. So tidious though to setup.

What I don’t understand about some of the UIs is, what’s the point of having multiple personal resource bars close to each other… for example last UI. Guy has health and mana display in the middle, to the left there’s another personal resource display, a bit higher there are party frames where he can see himself in group (for some reason people keep that?) where he can see his personal resources ONCE AGAIN! I mean, if you got 5 people in the group display 4 party members and use basic character info frame as 5th option 🤷‍♂️

Decursive is awesome

I use the default WoW UI, but i move the character portraits and target portraits to the middle next to my screen. Pretty much it. I hate the admin and the shit ton of addons needed for all these modern UIs. there it soo much stuff on the screen. Default UI with some minor weak aura and Dmg UI stuff is enough for me.

I am playing old school all the way and I am consistently in the top of my ranking. looks like a players skill problem to me :p

As a zoomed who religiously uses decursive on my healers. Watching max roast decursive and chat calling it a boomer add on is so real. I use it because my dad used it but it’s so good. But I get clowned on by everyone for using it because they have no clue what it is. xD

as a long time healer, the concept of having a heal absorb show as an effect is really not good, theyre pretty fuckin rare and theres already enough color and gradient based shit going on with raids and health bars, the number tells you quickly who needs a heal, those numbers appear so rarely in a raid that its immediately obvious it needs to get healed or something i have played wow off and on since vanilla beta with bind on pickup was introduced to the game, decursive originally was incredibly op and made all your choices for you, that ended at some point during vanilla, they blocked addons from making decisions for you, since that time i have had raid/party frames colored for dispells (blue magic, purple curse, green poison, yellowish disease, and only shown if its something you CAN dispel) but lately there are so fucking many different things taht matter to dispell its becoming an issue because magic is the most common, but there are sometimes other more important dispells that i need to do but theyre hidden behind the blue magic box, they have gone so far overboard with how many dispells need to happen its become very painful (in m+)

@1:14 I don't understand how/why anyone would play a game with this much clutter on the screen. By all that is holy it just gets worse the more of the video I watch.

anyone that thinks UI makes a big difference like this is delusional, I use base WoW UI and perform better than majority of players and I barely play the game nowadays.

I hate how WoW is so over reliant on the UI for gameplay information, it is just a perfect example of shit game design. You can entirely ignore in-game models and just focus on the UI with all your stupid bars and icons and frames. It has gotten so bad that when a mob is doing something you should be aware of you don't pay attention to the mob's model but its frigging UI frame. Due to this I've lost all feelings of immersion I used to have with the game. All you look at to "pLaY aT mAxIMuM pErFOrmaNCE" is the position and current animations of the UI. "oh shit no there's a healthbar over there and it is filling up a purple bar, somebody go press their interrupt ability on the healthbar!".
