How to set up the UI (user interface) in AOC - Age of Conan - Hyborian Adventures
Okay you've created your character resembling your real life self :P
This is how I set up the UI it's a matter of personal preference I know, but this is how I do it.
First I expand the chat box and make the font smaller by right clicking it
Then I right click the * tab and choose Combat
Right click and detach the combat and put it over on the right.
I'll probably change the combat window to guild chat in the future but for now I'd like to know what I'm hitting for to get a feel for weapons etc.
Note: I turn off "others" hits etc because it seems to pick up players clubbing gorillas from miles away and it's a bit spammy.

Part 2 more button space
You don't need many button slots in Age of Conan because most moves are upgrades to existing ones Vicious strike II replaces Vicious strike I etc.
But I do need a few more so…
I press F10 activate the 2 additional hot bars
make the horizontal and stick one at each side at the bottom.
That's plenty for me.
There you have it, generally speaking the user interface in Age of Conan is great, its simple intuitive and easy to use, and full of functionality.
