New tradeskill UIFollow

I have seen people mention a 'new tradeskill UI' here and there, and I was curious about this. Was there something added to the recent default skin that I'm missing....or is this something that is way back?

I'm hoping it's some sort of repeat button that lets you do the last combine with a single click :)

Only think I am aware of is back with OOW allowing you to store and use recipes instead of manually having to put each item in. If this is something new an auto repeat button would be nice. Guess I will have to load SOE default UI and then do some smithing to check

Ctrl+R+Right Click on the container, that will open it up where you can store recipes and save them. Yes there is a repeat button and autoinventory button as well.

It also limits you to a combine a second.. or two seconds. With simple combines of an item or two I swear I could go faster with the old UI. Now I wait for Combine button to ungrey. But no argument on complex combines that this is fastest/easier.

This was added in.. hrm.. LoY, LDoN or Gates? A while back.

The nicest part is it finds ingredients no matter what bag they are in, so you do not have to move each item to the tradeskill container. And also remembering the recipes so you don't have to look up each item, if it is a portable TS container (or one close to the merchant) you can have it and the merchant both open to buy the correct items. It was a coouple of expansions back, not LoY or LDoN, DoN or OoW maybe.

Thanks for all the replies. All this time I've never really noticed that function. I guess I just assumed that it worked the same on that screen as it did in the way I was doing it. I wonder how many other features are out there that I don't have a clue about :)

It was introduced with GoD IIRC. Same time as Abysmal Sea opened up.

heh

IMO no one should have the least bit of a complaint about the tradeskill UI as it is today.

i got most of my skills to 200 and brewing to 248 before the new UI.

the 9 item combo for brewing sucked bad, now you can do it with one click. anyone can now get brewing to 248 in no time at all.

as soon as that happens, tradeskill macroing would run rampant. I don't see that happen, as much as I'd like to see it as well.
