FUCK YOU ALL
Additional Action Bars
The advanced interface options allows a player to add up to four other action bars (bottom left, bottom right, right 1, and right 2) to the screen. Doing so reduces the number of alternate Action Bars that are available via the up and down arrows situated to the right of the primary action bar. This means that a total of six Action Bars are available for the interface to handle regardless of the manner in which they are displayed.
A player may choose to have these Action Bars accessible via toggling of the gold arrows (the benefit being a screen with less clutter and better field of vision, an option sometimes chosen by melee classes), or may choose to have those bars displayed at all times (garnering the benefit of rapid access to a greater range of abilities and spells, an option typically chosen by casters).
There are 10 action bars, and they are allocated as follows:
Action Bar | Used for |
---|---|
1 | (Primary) Action Bar 1 |
2 | (Primary) Action Bar 2 |
3 | Right Bar |
4 | Right Bar 2 |
5 | Bottom Right Bar |
6 | Bottom Left Bar |
7 | Druid Cat Form/Rogue Stealth/Warrior Battle Stance/Priest Shadowform/Monk Fierce Tiger |
8 | Warrior Defensive Stance/Rogue Shadow Dance/Monk Sturdy Ox |
9 | Druid Bear Form/Warrior Berserker Stance/Monk Wise Serpent |
10 | Druid Moonkin Form |

Notes
- Although most players quickly graduate to using Key Bindings for most of their frequently used abilities and spells, the action bar buttons will show Cooldown info (usually with a shadowed animated-pie-chart-like display) which makes the action bar still a useful UI element.
