So I've played with Luna more and I'm enjoying it more but there are some things that could still help the raid frames experience a lot and again things that can't be done that make a substitution from grid hard.
I like the colored boxes for buffs and debuffs, however it would be nice to be able to customize the colors of the buffs and debuffs to your own personal preference.
Grid has the ability to assign certain things to highlight a person's box in the raid. What you could assign was very flexible, however the way I set it up was:
I had it highlight for agro (aka I'd remove your red agro corner box. It's confusing when paired with buffs or debuffs).
I'd have it show highest priority option be mortal strike. This is super important to be able to know if it is on someone!
And then lastly I'd show it for mana users who were low on mana. The amount of mana threshold was setable, however I wanted 10%. This is huge for druids because I really would like to remove the power bars from raids because they are unnecessary and overly busy. They are very pretty though, I can appreciate that. But what I need to know is if someone is simply out of mana.
And the last thing that I'd like is to have the predicted green heal be separatable from the numbers. I found that all of that together is just too much information. For now I've got the bottom text set to [missinghp] and I'll try that out to see if the spam is to a more manageable level. If not then I'll be removing text from the bottom text entirely. In conjunction with that, it would be nice when if there were no text to have one big single line that was centered.
You can adjust how big and what lines are shown for other frames but raid frames is really rigid as far as adjustment and it would be nice to see that change. For me apart from aesthetics, I don't care what my personal frame is, and the only reason I am using Luna is for the raid support, so anything I can do to get that better is the biggest plus.
Everyone has their own style to how to do stuff. For me I need to have an interface that is as streamlined as possible. Not fancy, not flashy, and not saturated with information. The more I can filter my interface to exactly the data I need, the better I do. Hopefully one person's perspective can be helpful for your focus. I know there are others but just wanted you to hear mine.
