Blizzard made one more addition to its Forever development notes on 4 November, hours before launch. The new section covers the user interface and accessibility, and it follows the earlier launch changes in the same thread.

Bags and nameplates get the most practical changes. With the combined bag switched on, the background art of each inventory slot now shows which bag the slot comes from. Nameplates display Elite status again after a bug hid it, and debuff icons on nameplates can now be clicked through.

The Swing Timer bar no longer fades out because of distance until the swing finishes. The Spellbook and Talents frame now opens at the same height as other panels, and the Spellbook's combat mode frame is smaller. In the keybinds menu, hovering over an action bar keybind now highlights that button on the bar.

PvP gets 2 small changes. The scoreboard display has been updated, and killing a player while at the Honor cap no longer shows Honor gained in floating text or chat.
