I'm learning how to heal, and I'm afraid my UI is hindering the process.

This is my first healing class, I'm more used to standing and range-nuking. Any advice would be most appreicated !


Use grid.

files.wowace.com

Don't leave spaces in your action bars.

Get a bag addon that shows all the bags as one frame so you don't need to show the bag bar. Hide the bar with character and spells and all that you can just press the keybinds for them. Try to position your bars lower to the bottom so you have have grid sit near them. Watch grid I think you can make it so it shows up bright or something if they are low health.

@Starrscream

Im a full resto shaman and I have no problem healing, I have a UI you might find a bit more helpful.




I use to heal SSC and TK, but the guild died and Im back in a Kara guild until I can transfer out.

Do you think it can be Pixeldu? Since the font name isnt the entire name "pixeldust" but shown as "Pixeldu". The other pixeldust fonts are bold and expanded versions of the font itself. What do ya think?

You need to set windows to show file extensions but I believe the filename is pixeldu.ttf, bold version is pixeldub.ttf, extended version ( the one I use ) is pixeldue.ttf and bold extended is pixeldueb.ttf.

Any healers here use anything other than Grid?

While it allows for me to keep my raid frames mostly in "theme" with the rest of my UI, I cannot stand it. >.<

Sorry to bother with the many questions you are probably asked everyday concerning UIs, but I cannot figure out for the life of me how to add in custom textures/fonts that are not in any regular addon package. If there's a short way to do it or a site with instruction you could post here it would be greatly appreciated ^^ Thanks.

For cooldowns I'm using CooldownTimers2 and GotWood for totem timers and I actually tried parenting them to the anchor frame but the once I hide the anchors the frame stays perma hidden as well .

I do not understand how some of you guys can play, without having your bars visible. Even though I use my main bar - bar 1 in Bartender3 - all the time, i certainly would'nt be comfortable with having it hidden. The thought of hitting the wrong key or something like that, would continuesly creep up in the back of my mind.
That being said; Do you guys really play with those uis or are they trimmed down extremely, on those links?
