The '''Action Bar''' is the left-most part of the [[Interface Bar]] at the bottom of the screen, and is used as a ready source for command shortcuts ([[Ability|abilities]] and [[spell]]s). A player may drag and drop icons into the Action Bar in order to create a customized interface. Experienced players will give great attention to the layout of their Action Bar(s), as it represents the primary means of interface in combat, and is critical in allowing for quick action in an environment where 1-3 seconds delay can mean the difference between victory or a [[wipe]]. | The '''Action Bar''' is the left-most part of the [[Interface Bar]] at the bottom of the screen, and is used as a ready source for command shortcuts ([[Ability|abilities]] and [[spell]]s).

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. As of {{wotlk-inline}} Wrath of the Lich King, downrank abilities and spells are no longer available. | 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.

In {{battle-inline}} ''Battle for Azeroth'', the main Action Bar changes more than it ever has. It will now be centered at the bottom of the screen and be separated from the [[Bag slots]] and [[Micro Menu]] (which will now be pinned to the bottom right of the screen). The right side vertical Action Bar will remain the same. | |||

Buttons which used [[downranking|downranked]] versions of spells and abilities, and buttons on your inactive spec's skill bars were not updated. However, almost all different ability and spell ranks were removed with {{wotlk-inline}} Wrath of the Lich King, so for the most part, keeping lower ranks around was no longer possible, anyway. | Buttons which used [[downranking|downranked]] versions of spells and abilities, and buttons on your inactive spec's skill bars were not updated.
