Focus on the caster specific stuff....
This us the stuff casters (at least wizards imo) DON'T need to see.
HUGE sta/hp gages. Weight Stats/resists % behind everthing with a number Attack (it's just as dumb on a caster as a mana gage is on a monk) Windows the size of Texas (Nothing should rivial a wizards ego in size!) All the gages stacked up next to each other..... My first ui, because of the way the windows were stacked, looked like this: HP: <BRIGHT green gage> AC: <DARK maroon numbers> STA: <BRIGHT red gage> Mana: <Pink gage> WT <BRIGHT blue numbers STR: <Bright Yellow gage> DEX: <Bright Yellow gage> AGI: <Bright Yellow gage> PET: <black gage> or < BRIGHT red gage> ALL Resists: <all in this funky lime green colour> EXP: <Bright Yellow gage> AA EXP: <BRIGHT green gage> So I had this distractiong blob of colour on one side that didn't tell me anything I needed to know at a glance. All I really need to see on the screen at all times is hp, mana, a destinctive casting bar (not one of those foo foo ornate bubble balls with bells and whistles, buffs, hotkeys (horizontal preferably), and a chat window. I don't need to see my resists 24/7 I don't need to see my stats 24/7 I don't need to see my inventory 24/7 (clickies I keep hotkeyed) I don't need to see my attack.....ever I don't need to see my stamina/AC....but mebbe twice a year. This stuff I need so infrequently, it's not a bother to ALT + <something> or click a button to find them on the rare occasion I need to check them out. Novbre |
