The UI is desed to be intuitive. Your health and energy bars are prominently displayed in the bottom-left corner. Active buffs/debuffs appear above them. The shapeshift quick-select wheel appears when you hold the shapeshift button, allowing you to seamlessly transition between unlocked forms. Pay attention to quest markers on your mini-map (top-right) and the objective tracker (top-left) to stay on course.
