HoT Counter?Follow

Just a quick question,

Is there any addon out there that tracks all your heal over time spells and puts them in a timer like "ClassTimer"(doesn't have to look like Classtimer) Without having to target them? I know that Classtimer has this but from what I know you have to target to see what time left you have on all your HoTs.

Like... for example.

[(Tankname) Lifebloom(3) 5.4 seconds left ]
[(Tankname) Rejuvination 1.5 seconds left ]
[(RandomDPS) Rejuvination 3.1 seconds left ]

Etc...?

Thanks!

I use Grid with GridStatusHots and GridStatusLifebloom to show all that in my grid frames - it works really well with timers for each spell and different colours depending on how many Lifebloom stacks are on each person.

I use lifebloomer, but only for tracking HoT's on my tanks as it's a bit of a clunky frame.

It has colored bars to show remaining duration for Rejuv, Regrowth, WG and Lifebloom. It also has a Lifebloom counter, and the LB bar changes colors to identify when to recast without overlapping too early. This LB timer is also adjusted for your latency to maximize efficiency. There is also an opaque red bar that displays your GCD each time you cast which I find pretty handy.

I tried lifebloomer but the frames are a bit too much for me. However the Grid idea does sound pretty neat.

Ta reight muc'.

I use healbot to track all my HoT's. its worked very well so far. it gives me all the information I need in one place - who has aggro, incoming heals, actual amount of health missing, debuffs on raid members, and of course related to you question, the duration of all HoT's i've applied. this tracks all the HoT's including both lifebloom (including the number of stacks) and wild growth. this is quite helpful because you can see who didn't get hit by WG so you know who might need an extra heal. it can also show non-remocable effects so you know who's in the slag pot, kolo's grip, wo has life bomb or gravity bomb, etc. only thing I haven't figured out yet is how to make it show tank's survival cd's... for that you'd want grid which I believe can also be customized to do everything else here... grid will just take longer to customize, but is mostly worth it from what I hear.

I've posted these links so many times on so many forums but they are worth posting again :)

Setting up grid to track HoTs

Setting up a nice Grid layout


My personal setup is a bit different to those, but I used them as a starting point.

Rate up for those Grid links Friar RareBeast! I'm a bit of a grid novice so this is perfect.

Also, thank you again for all the suggestions.
