Well, I forgot to mention a detail. I tried EBB3. I honestly immediately removed it and went back to EBB2. First, the config window has far less options, options I was using. Second, its missing individually set-up 'grow upwards/downwards'. Third, and this is somewhat major, it didnt have the option to to have the bars 'follow one another'. What I mean by that is, in EBB2 you could set up a bar over another, and the top bar would always be atop the other one and stay linked, not end up having one under the other (which is obviously unreadable).
The only problem with EBB2 is that it doesnt supports self-only debuffs and the grow downwards option works but isnt properly saved (need to reset it every logon :/ ). I'm not too sure what to do. I guess I'll try again EBB3 and hope they updated it to at least support relative bar positioning.

I would recommend you something far more simplier.
Priorities:
hot streak pyro > living bomb >= scorch refresh > ffb
This is only the rough outline. Many many small details can be worked upon. For example, I try and line up 2pct7 with pyro, since it is rather easy (wait for hot streak before using a mana gem). Also, if you can refresh living bomb right after pyro, you avoid ignite munching, so sometimes you need to make a judgement call on the spot. Then all of this can get tricky if it lines up with scorch about to expire. Then theres also minor details, like avoiding living bomb exploding during combustion (eats a charge). You also want to finish as much as possible your +dmg timers/procs with living bomb (particularly with
[Sundial of the Exiled]).

I already use power auras. I do believe it is unfit for Living Bomb tracking. Problem is, I want to know at
all times the time left on it, not whether or not it is up. It isn't an immediate thing to cast living bomb whenever it isn't up. I try and minimize ignite munching with it, in the same way I used to use drums.
