This type of add-on takes key pieces of information from the combat log and displays it in a HUD  format so that you can see it without looking down cheap wow gold , or tracking it down in logs. The amount and type of information that you would like to see is configurable based on your preference. Blizzard implemented a fairly simple version of the old addons into their own UI a while back and for many players it is enough. cheap wow gold,
 
The Blizzard tool allows you several choices, however many players find them limited. There are only so many options that you can set, and few display methods. There is almost no customization available, even if you decided you wanted it to do something very slightly different.
 
Blizzard's base setting for Due to the limited customization allowed in the default UI scrolling text configuration wow gold , there are several addon programmers that continue to create scrolling combat text addons.  One of the more popular ones is called Parrot, presumably because it talks a lot.  There are ...
