too many buttons for a hunter. hide half of them and it will look cleaner. also: less addons at least for launch. a lot of those will be broken.

My suggestions:
- Make omen hide when you aren't in combat, and make it look different than the default. You have a theme of black/gray on the bottom, so make it match that.
- You have tons of buttons on the bottom of your screen. I don't know which bar mod you're using, but I use dominos and you can make certain bars only show when you mouse over them, and change the opacity as well. I completely hide spells that have no cooldown, as well as my bags (is there a reason you want to open just one at a time instead of all of them or don't use/want a keybind to open all?). I also have the menu bar set so it only shows when I mouseover. You could also do this for your profession icons; I don't even have those on a bar at all.
- Get clearfont and a font pack and change all the fonts in your UI to match each other.
- Get buttonfacade and a theme for it if you already aren't using it, and make it skin SatrinaBuffFrames (I think that's the buff/debuff mod you're using.)
- You might want to consider moving the positions of the buffs and debuffs- having them that far from the unit frames might make your eyes wander more than you would like.
- Overall, scale things down, hide as many of those buttons as you can, and try to make it so your eyes don't need to travel all over your screen - focusing around your character is usually best!

Fire traps, cheetah and hawk, mend bandage and hunters mark unbound : / (maybe scare beast should be added on that list as well) I always keep at least 1 main call pet bound as well.


Do you have a mount macro bound? I can't stand not having that as well

Otherwise you do have a lot of pretty good binds, not sure if you don't bind the others due to keyboard limitations or wuuuut

I can tell from the aimed being 1 and probably multi being 4 that you've probably had these on the same key for a while. I suppose pve doesn't require that much variation anymore but these are very good binds for such mediocre abilities... possibly replace one of them with cobra shot (since you'll still want steady bound)???


way too many buttons that don't have any reason to be there. I believe that if something doesn't have a cooldown, or quantity limitation, it shouldn't be on your bars. You could get rid of the bags as well. Bind hearthstone to home, bro :)

Buffs and Unite frames look fairly good though
