Just showing my UI to some guildies. Seemed like a good fight to use to get a quick recording as it shows all the dbm timers, raid warnings, etc. The only real difference in how this looks compared to when I’m in a raid is, of course, the lack of raid frames since I recorded in hPinnacle. In raids, my party frames are hidden and the xperl raid frames for all 5 groups are along the left side of the screen where you see the party frames in this video.

Addons required to make your UI look like mine
———————————————–
*Bartender4: Extremely customizable action-bar mod. Also allows customization of some other UI elements such as the micro menu, bag bar, stance bar, etc.

*CBH Viewport: Creates the letterbox effect on the top and bottom of the screen. Note that this is NOT covering up my play-field as many people incorrectly ume. Rather than simply placing black bars over the top of the screen it actually re-sizes the play-field, creating blank space on your screen so you can get your UI elements out of the way making it that much easier to see what’s going on around you. I don’t think I’d recommend using this on smaller monitors but, after getting used to it, I absolutely love it on my 22″.

*Deadly Boss Mods: Timers and raid warnings for boss encounters.

*Digits: Large health and rage numbers in the middle of my screen.

*MikScrollingBattleText: Replaces blizzard’s built-in scrolling combat text.

*Omen: Threat meter

*OmniCC: Displays numeric cool-down counters on skill icons.

*Prat: Chat box customization

*Quartz: Customizable cast bars

*Recount: Statistic meters. Damage, healing, etc.

*Satrina’s Buff Frame: Customize how and where buffs and debuffs are displayed.

*Squeenix: Square, movable minimap

*Tipsy: Simply allows you to move the tooltip so it isn’t covering the UI elements in the lower, right-hand corner of the screen.

*Titan Panel: Top bar displaying gold, coordinates, durability, etc.

*Xperl: Raid/Party frames

Other addons I use:
——————–

*!Swatter: Error handling

*Atlasloot: Allows in-game browsing of instance drops, armor sets, etc.

*Bagnon: Combines all your bags into one large window. Also allows you to look at all of your characters inventory/bank contents from any character on the account.

*Carbonite: Walk you through quests. Very helpful for leveling. Has many other features as well, especially if you pay the very small fee for the full version. Very well-designed mod. Is pretty resource-hungry, I recommend disabling while raiding.

*Gatherer: Tracks node locations for gathering professions (mining, herbalism) as well as some non-profession items (netherwing eggs, everfrost chips, etc.). Be sure to also get the Gatherer Wowhead Database from wowinterface.com.

*Itemrack: Allows you to set up and save multiple sets of gear in a nice interface and swap between those sets with the push of a button.

*RaidTracker: Very helpful mod for any raid/guild leader. Tracks raid attendees by first join and last leave time and tracks all loot received. Many customizable options.

*RatingBuster: Provides an enhanced tool-tip when mousing over a piece of gear. Converts ratings (hit, crit, etc.) and stats into more useful numbers and shows how much of each stat you would gain/lose compared to the item you currently have equipped in that slot. For instance, the tooltip when mousing over my equipped gun tells me that the 18 hit rating on it gives me 0.55% chance to hit. If I then mouse over a gun with 14 hit rating it tells me that that gun has 0.39% chance to hit on it and that I would lose 0.12% chance to hit if I equipped it.
