Is there an addon or option that allows me to put my healthbar above my characters head? I find myself sometimes getting aggressive in pvp situations and not really looking at the top left corner of my screen sometimes to see my health bar.
Weakauras is good, but there is some work to get it the way you want it.
For out of the box, try Icehud or similar.
You can even do it without an addon. The default client lets you move your character-frame anywhere.
Two options that may help.
-
Addon: IceHUD Classic. I used this for a very long time.
-
If you don’t want another addon, and use Blizzards frames then;
" Vanilla unit frames
How to move the unit frames without using an addon
Move player unit frame
/script PlayerFrame:SetMovable(1)PlayerFrame:StartMoving()
Then move around your mouse and the frame will move.
Stop moving player unit frame
/script PlayerFrame:StopMovingOrSizing()PlayerFrame:SetMovable()
Move targe t unit frame
/script TargetFrame:SetMovable(1)TargetFrame:StartMoving()
Stop moving target unit frame
/script TargetFrame:StopMovingOrSizing()TargetFrame:SetMovable()
Target of target will move after the target unit frame"
Hope one of these help!
Thank you. I will try these when i get home.
for player frame you just have to right click and select “unlock” to move it fyi
Personally, I used WeakAuras to put numbers representing my health, my resource, and my target’s health as a number in percentage on the 2 sides of my character. If you guys are interested, I can post a screenshot.
But that makes it 10x easier then running scripts.
Did not know they had a toggle like that!
I need to get down with weakAuras one of these days.
I used Power-Auras in Vanilla and it was great for making sure you noticed critical procs or missing buffs or whatnot.
sounds like he wants something more like ice hud
lol still good to know the scripts though I think.
