I’m going to give VuhDo a try after being a long time Grid/Clique user. I was using a more traditional wired 3 button mouse and then moved to a gaming mouse that had 5 buttons. I still didn’t use those extra buttons because they weren’t comfortable to get to. I now have a Saitek Cyborg mouse that was handed down to me from a friend that likes track balls better and I LOVE it. I use the thumb button as “shift” and have another thumb button as ‘CTRL” I end up using button 4 and 5 for cleansing/decursing and earth shield but they are easy to get to with my thumb. I highly recommend it.

Actually Leah (#10), you can click cast offensive spells. Theres a sub category for hostile actions on the spell tab.

I tried clicking the scroll wheel for a while but it’s never responsive enough for my liking so i switched to scrolling the wheel up or down for Cleanse Spirit on my Resto Shaman. I’d highly recommend trying this if you haven’t already

looks a lot like a combination of grid and clique in one addon with a sightly more user friendly setup interface my only beef with it is that I cannot click cast offensive spells with it and if I’m going to have to download clique anyways, I might as well stick to grid for raid frames (being an altoholic, I use my grid+clique on every character, be it tank, dps, healer or anything inbetween and have my profiles set up accordingly )

The way I do it is: (two-button mouse, no wheel)
Shift + Left = Lifebloom
Alt + Left = Rejuvenation
Alt + Shift + Left = Swiftmend
Ctrl + Left = Healing Touch
Ctrl + Shift + Left = Nourish
Ctrl + Alt + Shift + Left = Wild Growth

Ctrl + Right = Abolish Poison
Alt + Right = Remove Curse

The meta combinations made some sense when I came up with them but they’re pure muscle memory now. I really like having all my heals on the left button.

@Oleander I can’t speak for Lathere, but I just can’t figure out any more sensible (ie, memorable) key combinations to include Dispel Magic and Cure Disease on my VuhDo raid frames. I’m using Left and Right mouse buttons (I don’t trust clicking my scroll button – too slippery) with 3 keys – Shift, Alt and occasionally Ctrl. I could perhaps change my scroll up and scroll down to Dispel Magic and Cure Disease respectively but at the moment I use scroll up/down to target the player. Might have to think about it some more.

That said on my brand new little Mage, who obviously can’t heal, I’ll be using VuhDo to decurse. Perhaps when I’ve gotten the hang of that I’ll see if I can work it into my Priest setup, too.

I just wanted to say how thankful I am that you featured this addon a while back. I switched from Healbot to Vuhdo after I read your post and have never looked back! I love your setup and wish I could replicate it Due to the small resolution of my laptop screen my frames take up almost half my screen! I really like how Vuhdo changes some of the options that it will provide in the options menu depending on your class. It cause a little grief for me and my healing officer, but we worked through it. I’m trying to get all of our healers to switch to this fantastic UI.

Interesting that you show pets! Do you take advantage of that much?

Amusing that you haven’t bound Healing Touch. I should probably get rid of my click-binding for that, too; maybe put Nature’s Swiftness+Healing Touch in it’s place.

The question I always ask when I see a good healing grid next to decursive is… Why decursive? Vuhdo can do all of that, and that’s a lot less screen real estate, mouse movement, etc. And you can tell who you’re decursing. (It shouldn’t be for lack of mouse buttons, since you can “chord” your meta keys. I have all my heals on my left mouse button, and my decursives on right.)
