Without that convenience you are more likely to make a mistake. Mistakes lead to more difficult kills.

Example - Without having 2-4 Hotbar pages with 10 hotkeys each and a Combat Ability Page with 8 discs, you should classicly only have a single hotbar page with 10 hotkeys.

People using more than 10 hotkeys would need to use a different page, in swapping pages you may be delayed or use the wrong hotkey at time and that mistake can cause big delays or kill you if you break an invis when you were instead trying to track etc.

And there is no way in hell you can argue the un-classic ability to bind keys to the Cycle NPC and Cycle PC function isnt a power gain. This allows for the most unclassic of CCing on Enchanters/Bards.

but if everyone is using the 6hotkeybar than it would be fair.

If it was mandatory I would probably never play again. But if you could choose and you want it, go ahead.

there are about four enchanters playing P99 right now that could handle CC with the classic UI.

Hmmm not following it. I used that UI, but aside from tunnel vision, I don't see how the current UI helps CC any better. All me keys are setup as they were in classic :/
