New User Interface Updates

There are many new additions and changes coming in the near future for World of Warcraft. Alongside the hotly anticipated raid dungeon Ulduar, several new user interface features will be debuting, and we’ve put together a preview of them to let you know what to expect when the patch arrives.Dual SpecshereEquipment ManagerOutfitterObjectives Tracker

Track achievements as well as quests

Show which monsters are needed for a quest in the tooltip

Use relevant quest items directly from the game UI, without searching through your bags (really excited about this one)

Comment by Goldish I can now search for whatever role I want for my group? Holy Shock!Comment by Tribunal Would be great if you could select more than one option in LFG for dps/tank/heals. Irrelevant for lvl 80 but helpful when leveling.Comment by Chaoslux No info on what will the Color Blind mode do? =( Comment by Jindor No info on what will the Color Blind mode do? =(Comment by naturesgrace Me i cant wait for dual specs for level 40 i mean who isnt but now i can be a elemental and rezto shaman now the price is kinda a problem because if i get dual spec i my not be able to get my level 60 mount Comment by Poremm Me i cant wait for dual specs for level 40 i mean who isnt but now i can be a elemental and rezto shaman now the price is kinda a problem because if i get dual spec i my not be able to get my level 60 mountComment by Ymiron What kind of thing dose that tauren do? :P I dont know that "Spell" :/ Comment by Sentrios The LFG role thing is not optional, you have to select one or more to join. This is definetly going to make looking for group easier. I know that's what the note is for but nobody ever uses is, and when I put my spec there nobody reads it and still asks me. Comment by Kamach I love it!
The Gear Manager is almost exactly like Outfitter, so many of us won't need to readjust big time. And I'd love being able to just fish, queue for a BG, kick some arse, and then go back to fishing. Peacefully. Not wasting time.Comment by fatfish Would be great if you could select more than one option in LFG for dps/tank/heals. Irrelevant for lvl 80 but helpful when leveling.http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/underdev/images/ui/lfg01.jpgComment by netrbrunet Dual spec and gear manager are the top two on my list of 'looking forward to'. They go nicely together, and I'm really happy Blizzard didn't implement dual spec without the gear manager - that would have simply forced the use of a gear addon or consumption of bag space. /clap

LFG improvement are long overdue. What a horrible interface right now!

Finally, I agree with an above poster about having the quest tracking configurable to a certain level. For those interested in taking theirHtime, reading the quests, following some lore, and 'adventuring' more, then we shouldn't provide a big red X on top off all the mobs they need to kill. However, for those who are less interested in that (or are leveling a fifth toon for example), then some direct "go hear and slash and burn" directions are good (as provided by some addons like QuestHelper and LightHeaded).

Overall, I'm very pleased with the enhancements that have been announced and am looking forward to seeing how they're implemented. Comment by tellos0 I saw this on the World of Warcraft site, it looks awsome, but now I dread having to fight for DPS AND Tank gear with the other players. It's a pain being a noob QQComment by tviksas "Battleground Queue From Anywhere!'
BEST CHANGE EVER! now it will be possible to grind those booring quests(some of them) and play in BG at one time! amazing!
Im lovin' it! Comment by Fingulfin I love the new LFG options... I'm going to check the healer box every time (I'm a warlock)! Comment by HollowOwl Woohoo!
Finally, I can set up my Mage as a tank and healer in the LFG. :P Comment by gratscot I can now search for whatever role I want for my group? Holy Shock!Comment by CanadianSniper Would be great if you could select more than one option in LFG for dps/tank/heals. Irrelevant for lvl 80 but helpful when leveling.http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/underdev/images/ui/lfg01.jpgComment by frillydoom Im pretty excited about being able to quest while i wait for a bg que to pop and pick up questing where i left off when the bg is over.
I'm a little nervous about what dual spec will do to looting "rules." I'm afraid I'll have to fight plate dps for tank gear because they are "usually a tank." However, I'm pretty excited about being able to be shadow and holy and my priest. I love both, and hate spending a fortune on respecs. Comment by PeachPa
I was hoping Blizz would take pity on full bags and banks by making some separate closet-type thing to hold your gear in..Comment by rambaral Well aside from Dual spec, most of these changes aren't really changes at all, just popular mods being rolled into the game. They're great additions and it means less reliance on mods (less issues with patches) but it's still not as much as I'd hope regarding personal inventory.

People still go to BGs?
