New Hp/Sp Bar

[killerzee25]

Would it be possible to get a toggle on the new hp/sp bar to return it to the old one (like the toggle for the focus orb). I for one don't have very much space on my screen so i would rather a smaller one then the new larger one with the character portrait.

For those who have not seen the new hp/sp ba here it is

You can toggle the portrait in the Settings menu in Options.

I like it, not gotten on to Llama yet could you put some pictures of what each of the settings looks like? I think no portrait with %s should look pretty nice, the new HP SP bar is much cleaner than the old one if I remember right. (using a custom UI so don't really remember )

Here's Portrait with both %'s and values:

The problem is that the large circle dosn't go away when you take off the portrait it just replaces it with a small class icon kinda oddly sitting in the middle of the circle

LOL IT LOOKS LIKE the one from Rift!

Silly Turbine!

Bah yeah you're right. Was hoping it would get rid of the picture and make it a box. Circle it self should definitely go away if you take off portrait. Kinda sad at the % as well, was hoping for some lines in there too. However maybe straight % is better. Still better than what we currently have IMO, just get rid of the giant circle if you toggle Portrait off and I think this will be a very nice improvement.

Does palemasters' portrait changes when they get their lich forms' red eyes?

Here's a bunch more pictures for you guys who haven't got a chance to take a look at lammina

Why would I want to see what my character looks like or what class they are or what level they are? Turbine, don't you think I would know given that... you know... it's my character?

Definitely add an option to turn that ugly circle off

[dkyle]

Ugh... I hate the way most of my characters look in the focus orb. They're oddly distorted somehow. At least I don't usually have them sitting there; now it's either that or a ridiculous looking class icon.

Gotta feel sorry for Half-elf players. As ugly has Helves look in person, they look downright terrible in focus orbs. Their left eye gets glossed over somehow.

Bizarre, unnecessary change, in my opinion.

[Sanadil]

Any pics of you in group? Does the group symbols look different? That large focus orb took the place of the attack icon no?

[Rodasch]

Lose the giant circle or make it toggle off and on, for the love of all that's unholy.

It's a hideous waste of my precious screen space. I like clean, steamlined, simple interface most times, with everything out of the way but easily accessible.

If you want to make big gaudy stuff, give us the option to not use it, please.

[Qzipoun]

I also don't see the auto-attack icon... are you going to make us add yet-another-item to hotbars?

Seriously, if I wanted to see my character for any reason all I have to do is click on the middle of the screen or hit F1... I don't see any pros to this new bar and several cons:

- No auto-attack
- Waste of screen space
- Frankly, ugly (especially if you're just showing a class symbol, you think we forget who we're playing?)

huh? Artwork by Yalthoon?

As for the big circle... DO NOT WANT. Bug report it and lets see if we can't force the change.

[Memnir]

That orb by the HP/SP bar is utterly atrocious looking.
I know what my character looks like, what level they are, and what class they are. I don't need all that right next to my HP/SP bars cluttering up my screen. Please ditch that asap.


Royally bad call, Dev-Folks.

[Cashiry]

It can be turned off in UI settings.. also there is a smaller version of it that just shows HP's/MP's

something new i quess

something new i quess

WHAT THE F****!?

[Vellrad]

Yeah I like it! Finally I will be able to be 100% sure that this squishy melee dieing over and over got 200HP!

[Ikuryo]

That... is not usable.

The giant circle is a waste of space on my screen and make the bar not fit anywhere without wasting more space around it. I really like the current bar that is nice and out of the way. I don't need to play while looking at myself in a mirror. What character I'm on is obvious by the screen layout and the way their back looks. Its not like I have an army of clones in the same gear.

I'm really afraid of what will happen if you group. I'm hoping you don't end up with bars like that for everyone, a raid would fill my whole screen. I also don't particularly want other people to see my hps without looking me up on myddo. My archer, for instance, has few hps compared to characters these days and I don't want to be avoided because I seem squishie.

Could you get some shots of what the grouping window looks like?

EDIT: And now I can see the group shot. That is even worst, it fills even more of the screen up and lets everyone know my lvl 18 ranger has 288hps. A proper archer does not need many but I have a ranger icon, so people will expect me to be a melee. Is there some reason we need THAT much dead space around EACH character in the group window? Did you even think at ALL about the people that run on lower resolutions?

[Cashiry]

Starting to take some of the LOTRO UI it looks like, now if we could get debuffs(.i.e Curse/Hold Person) to show up under their picture that would be cool for clerics or anyone that felt like removing them...
