New on RoR or Warhammer? First Steps for a decent UI

[Beckb]

You can set the width and height in the squared options (rightclick the button). Also you can define certain thresholds for %hp of a player to show them in different colors. So ppl with 30-70% hp get shown yellow for me and ppl with 29% or less are shown as red. Just play around with the option. The addon gives quite a lot to modify

I got it all set up, except I have this huge problem - Squared addon isn't showing my HP drop! It's doing so for the other players, but not me. Any idea how to fix this? Thanks in advance.

Sorry, mistaken duplicate post.

How is this decent? Sanctuary UI *is* decent.

Everything is better than the standard group UI. and since squared is pre-installed there is no need for noobs to bother with installing new addons for now. a lot of ppl seemingly cant even manage to properly download the game itself and get it running..


At the others: For me it works yeah. The only problem that still is here (but i assume every addons has that) is if ppl crash or leave a SC party and the groups get **** a bit. But besides that its all working

Squared keeps resetting every time i log on. Is this normal?

No it is not. That looks heavily like a write protection on your ../Interface/Addons folder


Edit: Or it wont save as you perhaps didnt load the SquaredProfiles, SquaredSettings or whatever else together with the Squared itself

You were right - I didn't load the SquaredProfiles and SquaredSettings. Thank you. I still can't get it to display my HP accurately though. It's only doing so in SC's. It's nearly a dealbreaker.

I like using squared for the group/wb but then I use Pure Unit bars for my self and target.

OT since you're talking about unit frames....are healers usually considered responsible for the whole warband or just the group they're in?

[Aehnur]

If you're in a PUG, it happens a lot to have groups with 4-5 healers, or none. In this case, as a healer you watch for the whole wb. If not your own group is your priority, then the wb.

In a premade wb, all groups should be balanced between healers/tanks/dps and you should not have to worry about other groups, except when you see your frontline melting.
