Star Trek Online UI for Neverwinter

criss11 · May 2013

Neverwinter menus, queue system, notifyings, drops rollin , i mean accessing menus,skill bars are so confusing ,poor made.
Star Trek online has 100 times a better UI and you don't have to type commands, combine keys for loot roll and not everyone knows how to queue for an instance.Speaking about combining keys , my keys 1-4 doesn't work and i use "Num Lock" to type over the internet but not in games.I have a big orange diamond at the bottom of the screen and i don't know how to use it , also the left side and right side skill icons says "1" and "2" and like i said my keys 1-4 doesn't work ..till i get a new keyboard..in Star Trek Online i can use the skills only with 1 mouse click on the skill action bar / icons / menu , but in Neverwinter i have to "pause" the game with ALT to access icons.

To developers team, Borticus or whoever is in charge with Neverwinter UI can you please make the same UI/menu display system for Neverwinter similar to Star Trek Online including to add more customizable skill bars? shouldn't be so hard since Neverwinter uses same game engine as for Star Trek Online.

In the Star Trek Online is so easy to queue, roll for items, use consumables except for the part when u have to drag and drop the icon on skill bar everytime for every consumable type.

I have a lvl 12 tank, half-orc , and so far i enjoy the game which has cool and rich maps in props and well made but the menus from Star Trek Online are 100 times better organised and easy to access with 1 mouse click.

you can change the keybinds.

I still have mixed feeling about the action part of this mmo. I hope the UI is giving some love.

that big orange diamond is a "Milestone" meter when that big orange diamond fills up it means you can use your daily again.

i searched a keybind menu in Options (with Escape) but i didn't found it ..

I guess thats a "Chi" (PWI) or "Soulforce" (BOI) and how can i change the key to use that ? I tried with ALT to pause game and click on that but nothing happens..

Gosh, in Star Trek i never needed to change keys or ask for UI help/improvments in forum

.The only annoying thing so far in Star Trek Online is that the new equipped consumables doesn't update with new icons in action bar, you have to do that manually.

You're not supposed to mouseclick skills here. It's action combat.

Move around, aim with the mouse and use the left and right mousebutton to attack with your basic attacks. Then use the default Q,E and R for the other three. The dice in the center is a bar that slowly fills up as you fight for your Daily(ultimate) ability. It has no purpose on its own, you can hit 1 or 2 to use these abilities once unlocked.

Please, for the love of all that is sacred don't try to play this like your average old-school MMO. Hotbar clicking doesn't work.

And you don't ever get more slots. Why? They balance the game around using this set amount of abilities. And it's supposed to make you think about your abilities you take up instead of just spamming them all whenever.

no the "Milestone" meter just renews your Daily it's the 1 Key by default. its the one one the right of the diamond

Love the game but also not a fan of the UI...although my biggest issue is with having to alt to access anything. Particularly in dungeons where Ihave to decide what to do on loot rolls...remembering the key combination isn't gonna happen anytime soon for me as I don't dungeon alot, so alt click it is...which is far from ideal.

One of the biggest deviations from standard MMO fare and its a downgrade...grrr

i finally changed the default 1 and 2 keys of special skills with my working 7 and 8.

dornstoneshield you are right, the games which uses commands for emotes or actions or combining commands/keys are very annoying and primitive.
Perfect world international has the best actions,emotes, smilies in chat and even best Auction House interface so far from many MMO games.
