Also to go along with this- I want to make the main window hideable for those who don't want to see it. @ Manaman: I'll try working something like that into it for the next patch. @ Bane32: A quite short while after starting vulture I did hear about TimeToDie, I started looking for it- however from what I can tell, not only has it not been updated, it's also been removed from at the very least curse. I think the LDB version might still be floating around somewhere swo maybe I could have a look at that at some pont.

It was a great mod but I guess it was never updated. I know there was a LDB import made but it doesn't work unfortunately. Perhaps you can find it laying around and take a look at the code. Just a thought.

Moving it will be one of the first things I'm adding in (however since I'm quite new to lua I wouldn't expect to make it a drag'n drop type of moving).

I can help you with making it drag'n drop mate, It's actually pretty simple

i've always wanted something that would tell me i've put enough damage on a mob to kill it and also tell me how long before it would die so i could determine whether i needed to spend more mana to drop more damage on it.

It doesn't quite work like that I'm affraid. It makes the estimate by looking at how much dps was done through the last 10 seconds, then looks at how much health is left- and estimates how much longer it will take to kill doing that amount of DPS.

You might be able to get a similar effect by changing the damage delta to something like 3 or 6 seconds- but quite frankly I really doubt it could get a half decent estimate out of such little data.

Great idea. Can't wait to see how it turns out in later updates... would be nice to be able to move the window and stuff.
Mainly just want something to see if we're going to make the enrage timer on a specific boss
