It's unfortunately a bit buggy (it shows a second number that I think is supposed to be how many stacks of LB are there, but is incredibly inaccurate), but it's better than nothing.
The second number is the number of hots on the target. A Lifebloom stack of 3 still counts as 1 hot though.

Ahhhhhhh, if it's counting *everyone's* hots that would make sense. Thanks, Norfair!

Now, is there any way to turn it off?

I haven't found any way to turn it off.

By the way, I think the macro with focus-target doesn't "work", as I often use different macro's with different targets. Fortunately, I already found the solution in a different thread, the correct macro is:

/cast [target=X] Lifebloom

I recently re-setup my UI. I found that putting Grid below my char still gave me problems and right now I have it right next to my character which works a lot better. Also I found out that putting on the sound really makes a difference in being aware of what is happening around you (have been playing without sound for more than a year).

Which macro? The one I posted or the one that automatically sets/clears the focus target? If it's the one I posted I'll double-check the syntax during lunch and make corrections.

I meant the one Akomos posted, as you set focus target for 1 tank and I wanted to have multiple macros, each for different tanks. Didn't try it ingame though, since I already found the solution.

Ah yeah sorry, I misread or misunderstood your original macro request. It'd work well for a one-tank situation though

Does this work again? Had these some pactch ago and always got a million of ui errors "unknown target" if the user was not in my raid or not in range. Currently i'm back to only /cast [target=Focus] Lifebloom and basic Lifebloom, additionally i use grid and click2cast.

GridStatus Lifebloom is what I use. all I care about is whether I have a stack up on the tank, and this does it for me. I don't care what other hots are on, overhealing is not a factor.

Of course, grid is a prereq for this one.

Settings for Grid that I personally use:
Top left corner is Aggro meter. This shows a red dot when the target has aggro.

Lower Left is incoming heal. this shows a green dot when the target has a heal being cast on them. this does not count hots at all.

Top Right is Lifebloom. This shows a red dot on a single stack from me. Yellow on a 2 stack, and green on a 3 stack.

The center text shows the Lifebloom timer. this is also in the same color scheme as the stack dot.

Center also shows Rejuv or Regrowth icon, but this covers over the lifebloom timer, so I use NECB for the timer when I have something else up on the tank.

I also get errors when I try to use it and the person is not in the raid, but when he's not in range it still works and I just get the usual "I'm out of range" message. I got 4 macros bound to my ToL bar and just change them to the tanks that are currently in the raid each time.

HotMan with Cooldowntimers 2 is the best combination.

Hotman keeps track of man dist. hots on all targets, and CDT2 keeps track of timers such as swiftmend, trinkets et al.

CDT2:
CooldownTimers 2.0

Do not matter how much you play, you will never get the carrot.

Was curious if anyone knows an addon to track hots on specific people only?

For example, I dont care about the duration of my hots on DPS or other healers, I only want it to display them for 3-4 players (Druids, Warriors).

Is there a way to have any addon display them like this? or perhaps by two classes only?
