If by Dues you mean Deus Vox Encounters, it does have one. On the last icon of the pane (two rectangles), you have an option to make the 'proximity' window visible.

I'm suprised noone mentioned Shadowed unit frames here. (You'l have to excuse me if I skipped over it)

Being a long time Grid1 user and I've been looking for an alternative for a while. However I couldn't get used to any of them or justify the loss of specific configuration options with the small increase in functionality.

I was recently able to replace grid with suf. Apart from being able to configure it such that it comes very close to what I need both unit-frame wise and raid-frame wise, the beta version (that can be found here) has a incoming heals module that already uses libhealcom 4.0 which shows hots as incoming heals.

Looks like it has some potential from the limited screen shots that are posted with it. I like the center icon raid debuff for Gripped and the fact that it will work with libhealcom. I also like the idea of using one mod for both unit frames and raid-frames instead of Grid for raid and Pitbull for unit. However, I'd like to see a screenshot of it tracking hots with numerical values that are easy to pick out on the raid unit frame (a la Grid with GridIndicatorCornerText). I'd also like to see a more extensive history of mod maintenance. Grid has been around forever and I have a strong belief it will be around in the future. You just never know with the newer mods if the creators will continue to update.

Unfortunately numerical values are not build into the grid module of suf. However since it uses the standard icon timer display it works with omnicc. It has enough configuration options to make it look better tho.


I cheated a little with the scale to give a clearer picture.. but you get the general idea and possibilities.


Anyways, I'm not suggesting this is 'the' grid replacement. However it was for me, for now, and might be for others.. if only to get a quick peek at the new libhealcom.

Two things:
1. Why do you need omen as a healer, nevermind one that huge?
2. Having your raid frames that far away from your character just makes it harder to pay attention 'things you need to dodge.' You'll see a lot of us have our raid frames directly under our characters, in the center of the screen. The idea is you can keep your eyes on the frames 99% of the time, and if something comes up you need to pay attention to, you're practically already looking at it.

Unfortunately, the extra Grid function addons don't get updated all that regularly. You will probably have to "Load out of date addons" to get them to work again.

Sweet! They finally updated GridStatusMissingBuffs. Still nothing new for GridStatusHots or GridSideIndicators, though. I usually just get my addons from Curse.

This is my UI after looking at few here and few of my guildmates. I also raid as feral and have a combat suggestion mod that hides when I am Resto, but it would be just above my frame and my target frame.

I notice some of you have really nice looking fonts. Is there an addon that changes that fonts for everything at once? (unitframe, recount, omen3 bars, etc)

First off, I would like to thank Arythorn for Innervate/Power Auras tip. I now use Power Auras to also display when I gain Clearcasting, Nature's Grace (for boomkin), and Eclipse. I would also like to thank Kaitain for the gridlayout macros. I am now able to switch my grid from 25-man to 5-man and everything in between to fit exactly the allocated space.

Ome UI 3.0 - My old UI links have died so you won't be able to compare, but I have refined a lot of my UI to display all the necessary information clearly and centered on the screen. Also, I'm a big fan of symmetry.



Visible Addons
- Pitbull 3 - Player, Target, and Target's Target are set to consume very little screen space and borders Grid.
- Quartz Casting Bar - Displayed in between my health and power in my unit frame. I also use this space to display my vehicles power (energy) bar when I'm in a vehicle. My target's cast bar is not visible but appears in between my threat bar and my cooldown bar.
- Grid (QuickHealth, CornerText, ManaBars, StatusHots, Lifebloom, MissingBuffs, Threat) - I have my hots displaying in the four corners, deficit, debuffs, and incoming heals displaying in each box. I use border indicators for threat (red = tanking/pulled, orange = 100%, yellow I need to turn off) to tell me who's tanking or about to start tanking as well as dispellable poisons (green) and curses (purple). Finally, I have each box fade to 40% alpha when the player is greater than 40 yards away.
- Bartender Action Bars - Just above my grid sits an unclickable action bar that displays my 4 primary cooldowns (Swiftmend, Innervate, Nature's Swiftness, and Rebirth)
- OmniCC - This provides my cooldown bar with timers.
- Omen Threat Meter - I have this enabled to display only my threat bar in red. I only use this when I am DPSing as Boomkin.
- Deus Vox Encounters - Just above my threatbar are my encounter bars. I only have the proximity meters (which you are able to configure to any reasonable distance) on top of me when I absolutely need to be at a certain distance from other players on various encounters.
- RangeDisplay - Tells me the distance between me and my target
- SatrinaBuffFrame (ButtonFacade, Caith) - Debuffs appear right over my head and grow upwards, Buffs are on the left side.
- Chinchilla Minimap

Not Visible Addons - Acheron (death reporter), Align, Bagnon, BindPad, Clique, kgPanels, Leatrix Latency Fix, LoggerHead, MSBT, Outfitter, Prat, RatingBuster, Skinner, TipTac, WiseEclipse, and XLoot.

Boomkin Mode (in case you were wondering)

My grid is fairly simple: 4 corners display hot timers (RJ, RG, LB with colored stack, WG), debuff, incoming heals, missing buffs, poison/curses, and threat levels. Right above my grid is a non-clickable cd bar followed by my threat bar (only useful when I'm boomkin) and DXE bars. Above that sits a range display followed by a proximity box (right on top of me) for specific encounters. Lastly, my personal debuffs appear over the proximity box and grow upwards.
What mod are you using for your unit frames? is that pitbull 4.0?

Is that DBM on the middle left? If so how did you get it to look like that?
