MMO-Champion BlueTracker - Please Change: Shadow Dance Action Bar

2008-10-07 00:01:34

Please change it so that whenever we activate shadowdance it switches to the stealthed action bar. We already have way to many abilities as it is and to have to search for items that are always there while in stealth but aren't there now cause we're technically not stealthed is a pain.

Back me up on this one fellaz.

Re: Please Change: Shadow Dance Action Bar

We are going to make a change to Shadow Dance to keep the basic functionality but make the UI ramifications easier. Ideally we'll just let you use the stealth bar. This is a slightly complicated change so it might take some time.

In the short term, we are going to make another change. Shadow Dance will no longer increase the cooldown on abilities that can be used only while stealthed. If you have the energy to Ambush three times in a row, go for it.

Re: Please Change: Shadow Dance Action Bar

The short-term change meant you'll see it sooner. It's still intended to be a permanent change.

A new, special Shadow Dance bar would be ideal. If we can't do that, just letting you use your normal stealth bar wouldn't be so bad. Most of the rogue UI's I've seen don't have too many abilities on it (maybe 7-8 max at the extreme end? Your mileage may vary).
