Your Dashboard in the Game

Post by SilkySkiller » Sat Nov 23, 2013 6:36 pm

Hi All,

As some may know I am just coming back to the game after six months. All these new windows and abilities and options oh my! Used to be you just had to click in one spot to get your guy to hit whether it be with attack, strength, or defense credit or a combination. Now, well all that has changed. I was just wondering if any of you would be interested in sharing how you set up your screen and where you put your control windows on your screen? Which do you find works for you when you are fighting bosses, in dungeons, etc. Do you make up a bar for mage, range, melee and what abilities do you feel work best and in what order? Do you use hot keys? etc. Would you be willing to share screen shots? Thanks :-?

The thing that makes the biggest difference really is screen resolution, if ur screen resolution is pretty high it's easy to spread them out nicely, if it's low, like my laptop, it always sucks.

I'll take some screenshots from both.

If ur lucky enough to have 1920*1080 or similar some of the guys on here have some great setups.

I assume you're asking about Signature's monitor. Is that right?

I am highly into Dungeoneering and I preference the "Retro" set-up. Mind you - I put my mini-map in the upper left corner and enlargened it and also placed my ability bar directly underneathe the mini-map. I find it best that way to fly through Dungeons. :)

Good luck finding one that suites you!

Didn't see that it was signatures! In that case, yes. I am asking about how big his/her monitor is.
