Reliant Tanking Monitor  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 0.4.39 Stable Beta
by: Haturod [More]

About
Reliant Tanking Monitor(ReliantTM) is a tool for tanking. It will generate a debuff list of DeBuff Timer Bars with text including name, duration and stack info. Example of the text of the timer bars:

Demoralizing Shout [20 seconds]
>3< Sunder amor [18 seconds]
Essence of Eck [ 33 minutes]
It will also feature 2 extra focus frames which you can set to monitor your 2 offtanks. It will generate a debuff list for those targets.

You can also set an message which you can send to that tank. The message will be send as an whisper unless the target of the message also has ReliantTM. Then it will display that message like a raid warning similiar to the ones your get in mods like Deadly Boss Mods.

You can always check the changelog for up and comming changes!


How to use:
Type /Rel for the options menu. In there you can hide, size orient the bars as you please. Libshared bar textures and sounds supported.

Reliant has 3 bars. OT1, OT2 and the Player Anchor (which will feature some more functionality in the future). You can lock unlock, set a target and send message with the 3 buttons on top(or below) of those bars. to move the bar, hold the right mouse button down and drag the bar while it is unlocked. You can only set a target if the bar is unlocked by clicking on the middle button. Lefft and right clicking on the left button will send messages you set in the options.

The player anchor is still pretty dead, but that'll change soon

Also available on Curse.

Feel free to play around and let me know if somthing is wrong or you have an idea of what can be added.

Thanks to:
Rustig, Ginga, Lom, Pain and others from the Aspiration guild on Kilrogg and others for testing!

found the problem, fixed it, will be included in the next update. Aparently I had set the language as "common" (alliance) and I bet you play a horde character, then is should be orcish gave the value nil so it gets common or Orcish depending on the player. It will be included in the next update

Thanks for the heads up!

I haven't the opportunity to try this in a raid yet but it looks really good, but i think there is two things missing, an option for keybinds to send the message to offtank and an option to auto hide the offtank bars when outside the raid (yes I'm that lazy to open the options and click on hide xD). But it's a great addon and I already told other tanks in guild about it

I know! I'm kinda that lazy to next patch, deal?
Key Binds... never done those yet, but that's a nice idea, one I will work on tonight, together with Autohide

With luck, I'll release a new patch tonight, with fixed messages for the horde and featuring the experimental version of the healing monitor. Use at your own risk, while tanking Anub'Arak adds it destroyed my ear drums almost...

Ofcourse, this was before I made the kill switch for the alarm

First of all, thanks for your work. really a useful Addon.

Would it maybe be possible to add an option to filter some of the Debuffs that are reported for example "Weakened Soul" or similar ones. Made me taunt to early on Saurfang for example cause i didnīt look which debuff the other tank got, only heard the audible warning

I'm actually working on a filter, although I might end up rewriting the timer bars for that. I also want it to show tooltips when you mouse over the timer.

So, have patience

Debuff auras

In the subject of ICC, I noticed that the dodge debuff (Chill of the Throne) and any other debuff that has an aura effect acts as a 5 minute timer on the debuff bar.
Also when this depletes it is not automatically sensed and re-applied, but comes back a while later.

that's quite right. Those debuffs have a negative duration timer or so so I give it 360 seconds currently else it can't make a timer bar. I am currently my own timer bars instead of using a lib. that way I can just make a block instead of a timer bar for these kind of debuffs

So.. working on it
