Additions to the WoW Forever Beta Development Notes ()
BlizzardBlizzard blue postPosted by Blizzard staff on the official forums or newsPosted
On , Blizzard posted in the beta development notes thread that a User Interface and Accessibility section has been added to the development notes. The section was not in the notes when they first went up, so if you already read them, check the changes below.
What changes for you
- The Swing Timer bar stays visible until the swing finishes even if you move out of range, so you can still see how long until your next swing.
- With combined bag on, the slot background shows which bag an item is actually in.
- Nameplates show Elite status, and debuff icons on a nameplate no longer block your clicks.
- The Spellbook and Talents frame opens at the same height as other panels, and the Spellbook's combat mode is smaller.
- The PvP scoreboard display is updated, and honor gained is no longer shown when you kill a player while at Honor cap.
- In the keybinds menu, hovering over an action bar keybind highlights that button on your action bar, so you can see which button you are binding.
The development notes article has been updated with this section. You can see every change in these notes there.
