Description
This is an extremely FUNCTIONAL interface designed with BARDS in mind(though I use it for all of my characters). If you are a bard that wants to optimize for performance, then this UI is for you.

It aims to:
-minimize screen usage and maximize visibility
-optimize instrument swapping
-optimize clicky use and gear swapping
-minimize overall mouse movement (all clickables fit in a tight little area in the top right)
-make it REALLY OBVIOUS which songs you have memmed, which buffs you have on
-number buffs so that you don't have to count to ensure you have room for heal over time, etc
-display HPs and Mana with gauges
-display resists
-display XP, AAXP, and number of AAs
-display target and target's target together
-display AC, ATK, and weight
-display casting time gauge in control area so that it's easier to twist accurately
-avoid customizations that are not necessary - it's better to stick with default when it doesn't matter so that your UI doesn't become incompatible when UI patches are made and you have less to maintain

If you try it, make sure to set it up like my screenshot shows:
-get rid of your player window (I just dragged mine offscreen)
-stick your hotkey window in top right
-stick your group window directly below your hotkey window
-set your alpha levels for "Normal" transparency to around 50% for all windows so that they are all partly transparent - adjust to how you are comfortable over time
-put your current quick swappable instrument in the bottom right inventory slot (my drum is usually there) - this allows you to swap out with your primary quickly
-put your bag with your instruments in right bottom-middle inventory slot - this allows you to swap out your main swappable instrument quickly
-put your bag with your swappable gear in right top-middle inventory slot - this allows you to swap out gear quickly

Note: You may want to edit EQUI_Hotbutton_Wnd.xml to optimize for where your clickes and commonly swapped inventory slots are.

Note: This is optimized for bards with instruments that are all equippable in PRIMARY. If you have secondary only equippable instruments, you might want to change the way the slots in the hotkey window are set up to enable fast instrument swapping with secondary slot.

Note: To save space, the Invite / Disband buttons are not displayed on the group window. Just use CTRL+I for both. Takes some getting used to, but is better once you start using the hotkeys. Use /lfg to bring up the LFG window.

* The components used in this UI are all adapted from ones that I found that were close to what I needed from the Individual Components download area. Thanks to all of the creators whose components I included and modified to make this UI!

Enjoy! Shoot me a PM anytime if you have questions about this UI or suggestions.

Cheers,
-Sububer

I was using this UI for a long time, but I switched to Lodi Dodi recently when this UI was no longer compatible with the current expansion DoDh. If you could update this to be compatibale with the latest expansions past OoW that would be sweet. I loved this UI's versatility with my Bard..
