Is there anything that can be done about the CPU usage, it doesnt bug me often but more then a few times it will bring my game to a crawl for a good 10secs or so.

I'll be working on rewriting the code to be more CPU friendly, but I don't have a lot of spare time right now.

May I add for a suggestion for 3.2? So far it looks like we still be using an FCFS system, but with Seal of Vengeance/Corruption instead. Could you add a counter for how many stacks of the dot are on the current selected target to it?

I've yet to have any noticeable issues with excessive cpu issues. Guessing this is hardware specific maybe? Are the people having problems using older machines?

Of course, that's just me... I could be wrong.

Sounds like a good idea. If anyone else has any 3.2 suggestions, let me know. It doesn't really look like there's much that will need changing, but something might pop up.

Only other thing I can think of off the top of my head would be an Art of War up indicator (for instant Exorcism casts). Of course, that's something I can take care of with another mod like Power Auras... so not entirely necessary.

I know this is purely cosmetic thing and thus not really all that important, but is there any way to use custom texture to skin the icons?

This isn't a built in functionality. The mod pulls the texture's directly from the skill icons. If you REALLY wanted to, you could just change the code to reference a custom texture. It's not something I want to get in to, but there are plenty of guides available for packaging textures so that they can be used in mods. If you need to know the specific lines of code that would need to be changed, I could help you out there.

I didn't notice any problems while using the Addon, I just saw the high number in Broker_CPU.

I think SHIT should only suggest Exorcism in 3.2 if Art of War is up. Because 1,5 sec casttime will lower our DPS if we use it, right?

Correct, acording to the 3.2 patch notes using exorcism the way we do right now will not be advised, it will lower our dps. You're only going to want to cast exorcism when AoW procs, making it an instant cast. This could change of course if Blizz changes what is currently in the ptr patch notes.

Along the same lines, don't just show the stack count, but show the time remaining as well. It has a 15s duration, which isn't so long that we can entirely ignore it on movement intensive fights.

I don't think any of these changes are ncessary, however. there are plenty of mods to track uptime, and ElkBuffBars and PowerAuras can be easily configured to show this information. Would just be easier if we could get in in one package with a nice layout.

Back, semi-casual, and proud of it.

Great addon but I was curious if its possible to make it track SS when you cast it on someone other than yourself.

I think that is outside the scope of this addon. I use a focus then Classtimers to track SS when cast on others. I guess in 3.2 I would use Classtimers to track the SoV DoT as well.

RuneWatch for DKs has a similar feature. It tracks the number of diseases up on the target as well as the timer for each specific disease per target. May be something that could be adapted to work with SoV/SoCorr stack tracking. Could be covered by other mods, but a good suggestion nonetheless.

Of course, that's just me... I could be wrong.
