WoW director: UI overhaul 'successful so far' but still needs work

Blizzard removed access to certain combat-related addon data in the Midnight UI overhaul. Game director Ion Hazzikostas says the changes have been "successful so far" but are not finished. Players reported problems — notably healers unable to track dispels and a pared-down DPS meter — and Blizzard has issued at least one hotfix and continues development.

• Combat-affecting addons restricted in the Midnight UI revamp
• Ion Hazzikostas calls the overhaul successful so far, but not perfect
• Healer dispel-tracking issue (Null Corona) required a hotfix
• Built-in DPS meter lacks features from previous addon tools; work continues
