Part 2 video covering Grid2 & Clique advanced features: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3ivfKqmrK6qmsk

[@jewagr007]

Hey Mad, Can Clique allow me to mouse over a target and still use my native keys (i.e. 1-0,-,=,etc.)?

[@antonidasilva4249]

@@jewagr007 is there an addon that allow that? @MadSkillzzTV id like to know that either

[@JayCeHeisig]

Stumbled upon this video as I try my hand at being a healer. Installed both of these addons after watching and immediately loved them. Clique makes the macro binds stupid easy, and the grid is immensely lovely and simple. My favorite part about grid is how it shows you who is in proximity of your spells and who is not by simply highlighting the colors of those within distance. I was literally thinking about that before I started going into groups with grid and lo' and behold, there it was. Thanks for the suggestions!

[@Raumplestomp]

Did you see his most recent video? Are you still using these addons? I love the tutorial and setup information madskillz presents here. Made me reroll a healer :)

[@dcattoyz1993]

Yes more of these, I'm leveling a healer (resto shaman) for the first time and atm I use elvui frames and have to make mouse over macros for everything. Your setup looks cleaner and after watching this is way easier to get going. Your vids are great, I started the shaman after watching some of your videos about it.

[@Masuwuta]

Okay like, these videos are the only reason why I've picked up healing in legion. Love it bro.

[@Chris_dolmeth]

Miss legion.....

[@Jamu18]

I vote for even more in-depth healing set-up videos! I've been using healbot since forever. Always wanted to try Grid2 cause of the easy lay-out and how it looks. Thank you for this video. I was always missing some proper (simple) video that explain how to set it up, from an experienced healer PoV.

[@Skjorrious]

Such a great guide, man! Thanks a lot! As a very long time clicking healer I can already tell that when I get these new keybindings down to muscle memory I'm gonna be sooooo much better. Should've done this years ago...

[@bigbuttjoe6741]

Amazing, I just made a resto shaman a couple days ago. I'm loving the feel of it, note it's my first ever healing cpass in every mmo. So it's not in my comfort zone but i would gladly watch a long video explaining all add ons/tutorials. I was just told today what mouse over means or "clique". I simply said "I dont speak healing" Its videos like these that will make me more comfortable healing and make me an A1 player. Thank you

[@LadyLyri]

Thank you for this video! Just started healing 18s and 19s on my druid alt and it’s so useful to have a guide to help me improve! Currently an elvui/click the target player but I plan to make many improvements based off your advice!

[@chepeflores4640]

amazing vid,, dude, this is exacty what i needed, thank you so much and keep bringing this type of content

[@0x037]

As a new healer, I really appreciate the detail you went into with this video. The adding your own indicators is *very* helpful. Cheers!

[@punker2534]

Love this video even as an experienced healer.. this sort of thing would have saved me to much time/pain in the early days :)

[@Raumplestomp]

INCREDIBLE!!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge of Ui and addons to help healers learn to play the RIGHT WAY! What an amazing video. Thank you very much.

[@stefannicolaedobai5219]

Nice guide and for sure I would like to see other guides (more in detail for every healing class). Once again a very nice guide. Not to mention that I wanted to try out Grid2 & Clique several times, but I ended Unstilling them. Now I will try them out on a leveling Holy Paladin and I hope that I will come back with some good feedback and why not some questions :)

[@fike98cofi]

Switched to Grid2 from Vuhdo cause of this great video, now I can better organize my stuff! Spot on !

[@fuzzymunchkin608]

So i just got back into this game after years of not playing not gonna lie i love this makes healing sooooo much better. Thank you :D

[@undacoval3rotha]

Absolutely amazing video! You never let me down when i need healer info!

[@handro33]

This made a lot more sense now that I've played with the UI. Super helpful thanks gain

[@paytont.anderson4006]

Very informative videos. Coming back to WoW Shadowlands healing after a long break from healing. This video caught me up to speed on Grid2 and some other invaluable addons that drastically improved my game. This video and the second are a great way to spend a half hour getting caught back up to speed with this vid. Killer Job!

[@sumSOTY]

Just been recruited into off-healing on my shaman (played DH for legion/majority of BFA) and have never healed before. Your vids have been a huge help and reassurance. Appreciate these uploads broski!

[@MadSkillzzTV]

After many requests I decided to do a *healer keybind* video which also covers some of my most used healer macros 👉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJu7qJaadrKEmNk

[@user-gf6gi7nn8q]

Thank gawd. I haven't played a healer since 2007 (yeah, no kidding), and watching this made my brain seize up...at first. I mean, healing, in general, makes my brain want to seize up, but after watching these videos combined --- I think I can do it. :D

[@Insidemytaintedmind]

Extremely helpful, I thank you!

[@abdullasalah8269]

can i only show raid debuffs that can be dispelled only?

[@Becii]

Thank you for this step by step I was always afraid of addons but this is actually simple enuf for me to understand but still fast enuf to not let me skip anything ^^

[@Mako7eyes]

Man I've used this addon combo since Ulduar but i think this is the first guide of them tied together I've seen. These 2 addons increased my growth potential not only as a healer but also a tank raid leader, having all the relevant encounter information in one extremely customizable spot was such a good idea blizz even replicated it (terribly)

[@shq6666]

hahah I've started playing a healer for the first time 3 days ago, dude you are a true god you read in my mind!! :D

[@jkinze]

Love this video. I happen to use mouse wheel up/down how you use left/right click. I love it!

[@veeaye515]

Great content. I haven't messed with setting up mouse over macros since I recently came back to wow. 100% checking out Clique, looks so much easier.

[@Sy1vanharp]

Legitimately loving your content! Helping me understand healing now that I'm getting back into it!

[@Sy1vanharp]

That being said, would love to see a weakauras reccomendations for the various healers

[@Stanco1919]

I have used Vuhdo for years. Pretty happy with it.

[@ashesx773]

Hey man, I just wanted to let you know I'm a new player, I've seen a few of these addon vids and this is by far the best. So detailed yet not too in-depth. Sub and a like. Can't wait to try this!

[@Nefike2000]

Yes, more of these! It helps a lot!!! Love it!

[@bekahfrance1006]

I've played WoW on and off for around 10 years, always been a casual player never even really used Addons, but trying to learn to Heal in BFA mythic+ and Raids I need a little help, hopefully I can learn how to use this! Thank you for your help.

[@undertow5164]

Months later but....how did it turn out?

[@barborav7466]

Amazing! Thank you so much for that guide :)

[@nivjinx]

just used your guide for my new shadowlands ui - love it :)

[@DarklordofBarovia]

Thanks for the info! I currently use healbot mostly but I definitely see the advantages of using Grid+Clique! Will be using those in Shadowlands

[@Sh4dowlands]

Thank you so much! Always been healing but never had the courage to try out Grid in combo with Clique. Your video is amazingly clear. As all of your guides are. :). Now witha new Evoker=healer I thought, let's do it :). Seems Evoker buffs are not added yet (or I'm stupid) so I'm stuck on that. But hopefully that will be resolved. Thanks a lot for your wonderful vids and the time and energy you put in them.

[@Snowden224]

This is a great video as I currently use Vuhdo for my shaman and the buff bar bugs all the time! Stopping me placing essential totems when needed! Definitely gunna look at this!

[@stxnt90]

thanks for making this extremely helpful guide!

[@thamoonwalker]

Very nice video man 👌 I've been using clique since tbc and I can't play without it. BTW you can set up clique to ignore certain bars like your character unit frame if you don't want to have those alt modifiers.

[@Joel_bjornfors]

Fantastic guide and walktrough!

[@Megutsell]

I just started raiding this week and struggled as I have typically always healed by keyboard numbers. Tried a few addons the past few weeks in an attempt to make my healing more fluid during high damage trash but couldnt find one with an appearance that I liked. Turns out i had both of these addons installed and while I couldnt get grid to look the way I wanted it too a few weeks back I had a decent play with it tonight after watching your vid and really like what Ivé set up. Thank you.

[@suziequzie]

TY for this vid - Grid has not been updated, so I've had to make the jump to Grid 2. Trying my hardest to make it look like my old grid set up as best I can now that I know how to create the indicators I need and how to place them.

[@KingNothing11]

This was perfect. Thank you!

[@its_trav2262]

More in-depth guides please, keep up the great work!

[@ragamuffin00]

I use Healbot with great success. It basically combines Clique and Grid into one add on. It also shows hots or buffs like rejuv and glimmer automatically without having to manually add them. It's not nearly as clean looking as Grid or VuhDo but it gets the job done.

[@AlvlUpSavedMyLife]

ragamuffin00 yea healbot is way better imo and has left and right click actions.

[@christopherfarkas4034]

There are skins for heal bot now days

[@deleonrood5728]

Just started leveling a resto druid, thanks!

[@Ezerath]

Your best decision :)

[@jedi36mindtricks]

I loved your resto druid vids during legion! I came back for shadowlands and really looking forward to your healing vids again! I see you play a lot more than just your druid now!

[@kennethcedeno1636]

I love your work mad u rock dude !

[@Alecssman]

That was just what I was looking for. thx a lot

[@nickmederer9148]

I like this Video and ur Guide! Thank u for showing we what Grid2 is!

[@exitspree]

Maaaan, I just did this tutorial and my healing skill went up by a factor of at least a thousand! First instance I did after this I instantly got a "nice healing btw" after we finished. Thanks man!

[@chocoluver18]

Wow thanks i need to learn this new mouse over heal and try grid .. thank u

[@Kobrakai2007]

Great video, very helpful!

cheers mate very good over view very good for me just getting my toe in the water! keep it up ty

[@uninho1985]

Helped me a lot to setup my ui. Thx

[@ChipWhitehouse]

I'm OBSESSED with the way you say buffs

[@calbaking]

Great video, very helpful thank you sir.

[@TheAzdio]

I´m using clique and grid2 since Uldir on my Hpala but u showed me some new tricks to set it up. More pls :)

[@kevinpyle8480]

I've only used helium, which I find simple to set up, having watched this I may give it a go, thanks for your great healing content 👍🏻

[@Deuce-kr8uu]

I used healium from Wrath-> BFA. I promise you will not regret switching to mouseover macros and a unit frames addon (I use ElvUi). As an added bonus, you get all the screen space back that healium used to take up!!!

[@fritzioffroad]

Clique is my favorite addon for years. I use it with Elvui and couldn't imagine anything better.

[@fritzioffroad]

​@@BathroomBudddha You have an additional tab in the spellbook where you can bind the spells to mouse buttons with the modifiers CTRL, SHIFT and ALT.

[@dougbutabi5085]

Amazing guide you have the best healing guides EVER

[@ubuntux22]

Amazing guide man, i was using Healbot on my holy priest, but on battlegrounds i was not able to bind "greater heal" ... and that was a huge problem for me... With grid2+clique i was able to fix that, i really appreciate your effort.

[@undertow5164]

wait, why couldnt you bind greater heal?

[@ThatKidWithABike]

Was watching your stream and was wondering how you had some debuffs on the outside to the left of the frame (bursting..ect) cheers and thanks for the vid

[@eco999]

It is hard to believe how relevant this guide is. Last time I healed I think it was Wotlk. I remember being undecided between Healbot and Vhudu and then someone told me about Clique and Grid. I wanted to go back to the healing domain now, after all these years being a DPS/Tank. Was so fearful of the whole healer UI setup and new addons but there I am, finding this video. Grid+Clique, I am at home

[@x96Cecilie96x]

Really informative video! Much appreciated. How do you adjust the opacity in grid2?

[@vudacris1]

You are the man! so helpful!

[@EASTSIDEDELI]

thanks SO much. I was trying to find a way to show my Forbidden Obsidian Claw trinket from raid atk power when my haste or spell power changed, and I think this will do the trick. However, I'm not finding the item or the correct icon option to adjust it. I appreciate ya and could use some help identifying where to go to set that up. Basically, I want a visual cue that shows the trinkets atk dmg and mana refund in real-time so when my stats change I know when to use the trinket.

[@paulchristie9228]

I tried grid and clique and found them to be unnecessarily complicated. I much prefer Vuhdo. It's UI is so easy to use and doesn't take forever to set up. I highly recommend Vuhdo and it has served me well for many years. Just my opinion, but use which ever addon works best for your personal taste. Thanks for the vids, i enjoy watching them.

[@TheRabbit68]

Is there a way to make my party frames horizontal grouped and my raid frames vertical groups? My ui is comfy when I'm in a party but the moment I'm in a raid it's all a mess.

[@gennaroluongo7700]

Hi Mad, thanks in advance for your guides, are very helful. I've a question: how did u glow some spells in the ability bar ?

[@joerivde]

Awesome explanation, thanks

[@hesamsanjari2195]

this was awsome ty man

[@marcanthonywhitfield6797]

I personally just use healbot and decursive. Somewhat similar to clique I guess but it's an add-on I've used for years and I'm used to.

[@jessica96]

thats what i use

[@casualonemmo-player2167]

The author of grid2 need to provide a premade layout that replicates the original blizzard raidframes. Then, a new player can start to do minor personal changes himself.

[@northy179]

I've been using 'Vuhdo' and have found it to be quite good to work with and flexible, the 2 addons you mentioned are great but 'Vuhdo' works well as an 'all-in-one' combo. I've also never had it fail in raid which is what is most important to me, I tried 'healbot' once and it was a nightmare for stability.

[@danielburgos3817]

Honestly Vuhdo is a go to for me so much customization and not as much work to get it how you want it

[@Daemeous]

Hear hear, I get 99 logs frequently and I use Vuhdo. It's admittedly not very new user friendly because there's just SO many options. I love not just having an icon for Glimmer and Atonement but also being able to make the frames really pop with information at a glance; coloured borders or a bar showing the duration. It's such a pity Blizz broke the AoE Scanner though, that was lovely.

[@stepdad9953]

vuhdo's coding is awful though. They don't keep up with a lot of debuffs and you have to end up adding a lot of boss and dungeon abilities. Vuhdo also has quite a few bugs that have been present since day 1 such as raid frames not updating when someone leaves or joins a raid group while you're in combat. Vuhdo also bugs out sometimes when you try to use rez or dispel something it just wont be responsive and you can't interact with mouseovers macros. It also doesn't auto size based on group size.

[@jadeprinces]

vuhdo is awful it didn't wana let me set up keys i wanted it was crushing all the time didn't like it. healbot however is awesome had only one problem that i notice in so manny years of using it. When u get dc/d mid fight in raid and come back to game sometimes it will bug out and only show you till fight stops then it loads to full grp.

[@mgaming7]

@@stepdad9953 i have had vuhdoo just quit working mid fight for no reason at all. it's really fun watching everyone die because without the addon, I can't heal doing the click and cast method. I am glad to see your post. I was hoping it wasn't me making it break.

[@Quettesh]

Click + ElvUI raid frames, since you are using ElvUI, it is really easy to setup and it has basically everything Grid2 has, but main addon is definitely Clique no matte the raid frames. I really like the positioning and flexibility in ElvUI where you can move everything in the raid frames, just the filters are a bit messy in ElvUI.

[@ryandavid7659]

So helpful ty

[@silverfox4541]

Ty This was realy helpfull

[@Darckpopo39]

Great video! One question, what is the addon showing the healings done on the right side of the screen?

[@Oofling]

Awesome! i would love to see your class specific bindings explained :)

[@Jeckaa84]

Bindings are a personal thing.

[@Oofling]

@@Jeckaa84 Thanks captain obvious.

[@Jeckaa84]

@@Oofling looking at your comment it doesn’t look so obvious lol.

[@chenhaihu6893]

I'm using default wow raid frames combine with biggdebuffs to show dot. And also having clique, very easy simple healer set up.

[@morokeiboethia6749]

Question about key bindings - As an example, I would like to mouse over a friendly players health bar and press the "Q" key and it will cast Holy Word: Serenity. I have many spells that I would like to map to a character button (q,e,r,t,f,g,z,x,c,v) and cast by mouse over a party member's health bar and pressing an alphabet character key on my keyboard. I don't want to cast spells by using some combination of Ctrl or Alt click. I would like to map them to a single character button on my keyboard. Is this possible or do you have to use Ctrl or Alt + L/click or R/click combinations to cast spells with this addon?

[@sylvana393]

Using Healbot atm. I’ve had my keys be non responsive at least once a dungeon. Keybinds not working for 10 sec. then working again. Not fun. Going to try this. Thanks.

[@avinfun]

Great tutorial

[@PeterTeehan]

this is awesome. Im 9 years removed. Last expansion was MoP. I have alot of catching up to do 😂

[@Raumplestomp]

How did the catching up go?

[@Bugsbysix]

I'd love to see a more advanced guide. I've been using healbot for years, which is fine, but not quite as customizable as I'd like, and this grid/clique setup looks like it's providing more of what I want. But I need to learn about more functionality!

[@sqly3129]

I use Hb to this day too... Its just so good for me to have option mousover or classic without doing any macro. But yeah customizeablity kinda suffers

[@666jank666]

Any suggestion why on my holypaladin glimmer of light is not showing the CD in grid2 ? Already tried via changing icon-size but nothing works

[@ianfeagan3980]

Can you explain the h pally clique setup more for holy light you said you have it as both offense and heal but im unsure how to set up the "or" function....

[@GoatOfWar]

How do i get the dungeon/raid role icons to show up like ones at the end of the video? (Tank,dps heal) I get colored squares.

[@askey316]

Great video mate, is it a WA that shows your healing spell ticks on the mid right?

[@robertomosty]

almost 9.2.5 this tutorial is still gold

[@davidbolduc4378]

Great video and thank you. My question is with Cilque. Can i have the same button assigned to work with mouse over and when not targeting anything? example. If i have Penance assigned to key button 4. I set cilque to 4 and leave default selected and select hovercast bindings. the result is the mouse over works but now the key button 4 doesn't work at all. I have tired every combination. am i missing something?

[@DKMerkules]

Any idea, why I don't have an "Appearances" option when I go into setup Grid2?

[@OOORCOOO]

Great video, but how to you make these settings carry over to party and raid? The preview does not appear to allow modification

[@Authoity4576]

When I enter a dungeon the normal group display on the left is still there as well as the Grid2 group display. How do I disable the normal group display that's normally there

[@TechAndMotorcycles]

I'm one of those that uses healbot and its not as custom as grid such as displaying tics and such but from a direct healing standpoint it seems to carry the functionality of grid and clique combined

[@marcopalazzo9349]

You can custom it to show any buff

[@ThEDeSu]

I use healbot at the moment is kinda a combination of grid2 and clique but I can still select people without the ALT modifier. What are the advantages this grid2 and clique setup had over using healbot?

[@zerti86]

please more and thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼
