Hey all, I know it’s been brought up again and again, so feel free to ‘deadhorsegif’, yet it still needs attention.

The UI. It’s packed with stuff. Mostly stuff that we don’t need, at least not all the time.

Could we get it so that when we collapse one of the top right elements (personal story, heart events, daily, etc, etc, etc, and even more etc) instead of becoming a header that will randomly expand into the full display again, it just becomes an icon, akin to the ones at the top left for BLTC, WvW, PvP, mail, etc?

For functionality, have any change to the status of the various collapsed icons result in a red !, the same as mail and whatnot have now. No random returns of the menus, simply an alert that something has changed.

This would give a cleaner interface, and help address the near 30% blockage of our screens with inconsequential UI clutter.

Thanks,

Stale/Dan

This UI is significantly cleaner than many other MMO UIs. If you want to get rid of it very badly, you can use the action combat mod to get rid of parts of it. Popular YouTubers (that ArenaNet staff watch), use this. (WoodePotatoes). He hasn’t gotten banned because of it.

It can get really messy idd. Especially when you run into a wvw keep and you have several “events” in top right that arent even going on but showing 99.99% completed.
