visualising your autoattack timers would make it eazymode. ;)

EQ2Interface : Auto Attack Bar~ : Auto Attack Bar~

fyi: this is designed for gu#51. it means it won't work now on live servers, only after they get the update.

since they pulled out even the UI modifications from the hotfix (precalled as gu#51), we have to wait the next GU for this. well done, SOE! =|

If you need that bar to time auto swings, you fail miserably and should probably just go roll an Illy now. All this is going to do is make the game even more easy mode and take less skill to play. You either have it, or you don't.

if u think this is eazymode, what u think about act and clicktocure?

ACT is just another way to read logs. Does it make it easy mode to call timers? Yes, it does. However, with the way encounters are being designed right now, ACT is required to be effective to take them down. Ever consider the Devs are designing things around them knowing that option is available? Click to cure... I know some awesome healers who don't use it at all. The problem I have with an actual bar showing delays is along the same lines as this soon to be agro moniter. They are just adding too much in game to where you don't even have to think or have skill to do it. Although the agro numbers in logs are good so we can then see if all our deagro stuff truly works or not.

I'm excited - it's more lights and visual entertainment for us ADHD people. If I could get the bar to pulse different colors...oolala!


I think of this and the agro meter as training tools - it'll be GREAT to see some numbers on hate and to have a few hunches clarified. The swing meter is nifty - for people who are more visual than audio - good way to get a feel for what is going on. Then you move on. If you come to rely on it - then I think that's not really helping you in the long run.

It'll be especially handy for folks who are coming from finger wiggly classes into melee and learning about the melee mechanics belatedly.
