My New Onslaught UI
I’ve been looking for a new WoW UI compilation for awhile now and figured what better time to change my UI than a week before the new patch hits the live realms. Hmm… maybe that wasn’t the wisest of ideas. After combing through the various UI compilations and suites on WoWInterface, I settled on the Onslaught UI.
Flame Keeper Molsan in Dalaran
AddOns
It contains many of the same addons I’ve been running, including ArkInventory and FuBar. It did not contain Auctioneer, but I manually added the current preview version of Auctioneer, which supports the importing of their database file from auctioneerdb.com.
I love the creative way it uses FuBar to organize addon information along the bottom right-hand side of the screen. I can add all the additional FuBar-related addons I want, and it bunches the icons and/or text down in the corner.
Molsan Standing in the Empty Dalaran Bank
The Onslaught UI comes with Dominos for managing action bars. I’ve been using Bartender for almost two years now, but I don’t see much of a difference between them for my basic needs. I also appreciate how the buffs and buff timers are organized. I had been allocating almost the entire right-hand side of my UI for buffs, but Onslaught pushes them all the way up to the top of the screen, displaying them horizontally.
Performance
I did not change any of the video settings that Onslaught had configured. My in-game experience and performance did not suffer, even though Onslaught set the video effects to “Good.” I had been running with the video effects set to “Fair,” with an 18-22 frame rate in Dalaran, and a 40-55 frame rate out in the world. I was pleased to see that my fps stayed around this range after the installation of Onslaught.
Themis Rides Through Dragonblight
Well I use Ct mod and it works for me but I might have to check this one out. But the real reason for my comment is…..I also have a pally named THEMIS. That is crazy.

Cool! Themis is actually my second Paladin on Earthen Ring. I usually get a lot of grief for having two Paladins, but I plan on converting her to Holy someday, while my main will stay Protection and Retribution.
