Oh gods no. :-/

May i ask you? What do you think about allowing casting from spellbook?
After all its a popup menu where you have all your spells sorted ... it should satisfy you, no?

I mean ... it seem quite useless to show spellbook like this, when all you can do is adding spells to your hotbar:

I believe that option to give your "spellbook" on hotbar if you (understandably) dont want to use that small icon on map, to open this exact menu should satisfy you people who are asking for spells menu ... no ?

And if so ...
How would you like option to simmilary open your inventory with allready filtered items ...
I mean ... allowing you to add to your hotbar "scrolls" icon, to only show scrolls in this "smaller" inventory menu, preferably with that sorting icons that are in usual inventory menu, so we can switch between other filters like arrows, potions, etc. faster.
Isnt that kinda synthesis between what do you want, and also what do we (feel free to read is as i) want?

Not at all...
Not sure I have to explain why...

I can't understand players that don't want to have one more click with the "it's faster with hotbar" argument when :

- you'll have to spend hours managing your hotbars (keep in mind at the moment it's only lvl 1-4 and act 1)
- you'll have to switch from 1 bar to another when the first one will be full
- your UI is always changing, leading to tedious management over and over again (no more torch, no more potions, no more... => So now the recast of your spells finally appear on the first bar when you expected it on the 2nd).

This system is horrible I can't understand any PRO.
A small custom hotbar for the very usual things could be cool but seriously who likes managing giant hotbars every 4 hours because "well, it's time... I can't find anything... I have to sort things again".

Auto sorting your items/spells/features a way or another is the key to have a clear, friendly user and consistent UI.

At the moment players are often using bags they drag on the hotbar to sort items... It would be the same with a specific menu instead of this "loot popup" that comes anywhere on the screen.
