When you learn a new rank of an ability or spell, all buttons on your currently active spec's action bars which previously used the highest available rank will be updated to use the new highest rank. Buttons which used [[downranking|downranked]] versions of spells and abilities and buttons on your inactive spec's skill bars will not be updated.

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 interface 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 [[Ability|abilities]] and [[spell]]s, an option typically chosen by [[casters]]).
