Just to make sure I'm reading you right, you basically want Unit Frames that you can click on to automatically cast your dots? I'm assuming this is for a toon other than your rogue? Last I heard, the Blizzard UI does not allow the dynamic creation of random unit frames so people can't just stare at an enemy "grid" in PvE or PvP and click their DoTs all over the place with no effort.

If you can find an addon that creates dynamic unit frames for you, you should be able to program Clique do to the whole "click to refresh" thing.

Brilliant idea with using clique, I hadn't thought of that. I guess all I need then is something that dynamically creates unit frames with a DoT timer on them.

And yes, I plan to use this for my Warlock.



See the DoTimer to the left of Grid? Basically, I'd like for the name of the mob with the DoTs on it to be clickable (so I can refresh using clique.)

What you want can't be done. Frames can't just magically appear for any enemy that is near you, for a number of reasons. Qalor's idea is probably as close as you'll be able to get. Combine Tidy Plates (or similar) with mouse over macros. I'm not sure if Clique works on name plates, or just unit frames, but it might be worth a shot instead of the mouse over macros.

Ok so im not sure if this is the correct forum for this but it seemed to pretty well fit the parameters. I was wondering what the best or what your opinion is on the best SCT addon is? i am using Miks Scrolling Combat Text at the moment but i was wondering if there was one that was better or more widely used?

The timer for the abilites above the player frame here:



I know this is LUI v3, and i downloaded the pack, but couldn't find anything like a class timer or needtoknow included. Is this possibly forteexorcist?

If you haven't installed anything additional to the base LUI package, then I'm 99% sure those are either from the custom oUF layout LUI use, or else custom from the interface\addons\lui\modules\buffs.lua or bars.lua file.

You can easily replicate the look with Raven, Satrina's Buff Frames, WeakAuras, or many others however.

Yes it is.

Some theorcrafters (for example the rogues) have developed exact stat values for each spec of their class. Is there any addon that encodes those underlying formulas (ideally for all specs of all classes) and applies the resulting weights alongside the stats on item tooltips?

For example if Agi is worth 2.6 for my Rogue, I'd love to see "100 Agility (260 EP)" on an item tooltip, maybe with a subtotal for all stats on the item at the bottom. I could then analyze and compare items much more easily ingame, rather than having to do the math by hand or pull out the spreadsheet or simulator all the time.

Pawn will let you set this up. It works very well when mixed with using SimCraft.

Anyone got an Idea of the namaplate addon used in this video ?

I'm mainly wanting the two arrows that show currect target selected.

Looks like tidyplates: threatplates
You can assign a texture to highlight your current target in the config

I'm looking for something to basically just make a movable pointer on my screen. I basically want a way to mark the spot on my focus meter where another steady shot will overcap my focus. It doesnt need to know were this is, mind you, just a little arrow I can move over to my focus bar by hand and find the spot to mark.

You can do something like this with PowerAuras. Just set the aura to show if you're in combat with more than 1 focus or something similar.

I need an add on that will show me my cool downs, I want to be able to specify as well I need to track Blood Tap, Blood Fury, Pillar of Frost, and Outbreak specifically.

I have seen one that is kind of a horizontal bar on the screen and they scroll across the bar as they go towards being off c/d. I think that one would work perfectly, but I am open to suggestions as well.

@Griefpb: The mod you are describing most likely is CoolLine (I use it and find it helpful) or ForteXorcist (more than just a CD mod, tracks DoTs as well). There are other timer mods that also have the capability of tracking cooldowns (i.e. they are not specifically for CDs but handle them as well). Vranx has a good start here for a non-exhaustive list.

Cheers.
