Cataclysm UI Enhancements (worldofraids)

[Winterherz]

-----------------Character & Professions-----------------​

Leveling Up
When leveling up, the game now displays a "toast" to congratulate you and also make you aware of new skills, talent points and features available to you as of the level. This includes alerting you of battlegrounds, the dungeon finder, riding and glyphs. In addition to this, all of the messages are sent as text in your chat window as well, and the primary "You reached level x" is clickable, displaying the entire toast summary.

Character Panel
The character panel has been updated. The stat display has been moved out away from the model preview and onto the right side in a collapsible area. The screenshots below show it expanded; you can collapse it by clicking on the bottom-right arrow button on the panel.

Spellbook & Professions Book
The spellbook has been updated due to the changes to the spell system, and now also displays your abilities even if you can't learn them yet. In the screenshot example you see a new ability is ready to be trained. The professions tab of the book is brand new and displays all of your known professions, as well as buttons to create hotkeys for them or to open the recipe panel.

Profession Recipes - Multiple Skillups
With Cataclysm, professions such as Blacksmithing, Tailoring, Leatherworking, etc. can now give multiple skillups for certain items when creating them. The recipes panel has been updated to reflect this. The number of skillups you receive (beyond one) will be displayed with an up-arrow and a numerical value, to the right of the recipe name.

Trainer UI Improvements
With the removal of spell ranks, Blizzard took the opportunity to update the class trainer panel and it now looks much better than before. They've also updated the professions trainer panel in a similar fashion.

-----------------Quests-----------------​

Remote Quest System
new remote quest system has been added, allowing you to receive and complete some quests out in the field, without having to visit the starting NPCs. When a quest is completed and ready to turn in using this system, you will see a graphical alert on the quest tracker.

Quest Tracker - Minimap Arrow
The quest tracker has been further enhanced with Cataclysm, now displaying an arrow on your minimap directing you to the "#1" quest in your quest tracker. It's recommended you sort by proximity to take full advantage of this arrow.

Kill Target Enhancements
Kill Target quests, primarily those for "named" NPCs will now display a window to the right of the quest dialogue that shows the model for the NPC you must kill, as well as a bit of flavor text.

-----------------PVP-----------------​

Player-vs.-Player Panel Updates
The PvP panel has been completely overhauled and now contains three tabs: Honor, Conquest and Arena Teams. You can now create your Arena Team directly from the PvP panel rather than having to visit an Arena Organizer. The Honor tab allows you to queue for battlegrounds, and the Conquest tab allows you to queue for either rated battlegrounds or arena matches.

-----------------General-----------------​

Track Everything & Minimap
he tracking options have been revamped as it's now possible to track multiple things (or everything) at once. The minimap has also been updated to display unique icons for various tracking options.
