Character info

Character tab of the Character window circa Patch 6.2.3.

Character Info frame (sometimes called "character sheet") displays information about the player's character. A window that by default shows the character's name (with title), level, specialization, class, (used to show guild, if a member), equipped items, and paper doll rendering. The character info window is usually accessed via the default "C" key binding.

In Mists of Pandaria

This section concerns content exclusive to Mists of Pandaria.

The UI was changed again in Mists of Pandaria to consolidate the Equipment Manager into the previously exclusive stats panel and add a pane for Titles.

As part of the ranged weapon overhaul, the Ranged/Relic slot was removed from the bottom of the window.

In Cataclysm

This section concerns content exclusive to Cataclysm.

Starting in Patch 4.0.1, attributes, combat stats, resistances, and other info were viewable in a slide-out Stats panel accessible via a button at the lower right of character window. In addition, an Equipment Manager feature was added to manage equipped items via a separate, but attached window that was accessible via a button to the upper right of the character window (removed in Mists of Pandaria). Lastly, you could see reputation levels and currency counts via the Reputation tab and Currency tab at the bottom of the character window.

As part of the removal of ammo, the Ammo slot was removed from the bottom of the window.

Model Rotate Buttons

Just to the top-left of the 3D character preview figure, these buttons rotate the preview counter-clockwise and clockwise.

Character tab

The character tab (default tab selected when window opened) contains the following areas:

• Character's portrait (upper left corner) and model (upper insert).
• Character's Name, Level, Race, Class, Guild, Title information (upper center).
• Paper doll 3D representation of the character with currently equipped items
• Equipment slots around the paper doll. Hovering over the item icons allows you to view the items' stats.
