Ara Dotimer  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: r11
by: Aranarth [More]

A debuff timer addon (beta).


This addon struggle for CPU/memory efficiency and as such doesnt have any in game configuration except for positionning.

To move timers, type "/dt" or "/dot" and a draggable purple window will appears. You can also mousewheel the window to change scale size. Once done with it, right-click the window to hide it or type the command again. You can also type "/dot grow" to have debuffs grow from "right to left" instead of "left to right".


It supports:
- PvP timers and diminishing returns.
- The following class abilities: warlock, druid, DK (partially), mage (untested), priest.
- Stacking debuffs.
- Talents and glyphs.

It will support later:
- Better focus/target visual effects.
- More classes.


If you have AddonLoader, this addon will load in delayed mode.

r10
- Fixed a random scalling issue.
- Added various debuff and glyph/pet effects (mostly DK)
- Update debuff durations of Plague Strike and Icy Touch.


r10
- Fixed a huge bug that was silently breaking the addon.


r9
- Finally Blizzard has implemented source IDs. This addon now takes full advantage of it. Ultra low CPU usage.
- Added "dontFade" field on spells. These won't fade; instead they will instantly disappear.
- Optimized combat event handling.


r8
- Removed a debug message.


r7
- Fixed a scaling issue.
- Added spells: Shadow Embrace (priest), Chains of Ice (death knight), Hungering Cold (death knight).
- Updated some glyphs.


r6
- Added the command "/dot grow" (or "/dt grow") to toggle the horizontal grow direction of timers (left or right). As a collateral change, it also reverse the duration order.


r5
- Fixed stacking numbers staying on screen.
- Fixed target level.
- Added stronger target/focus visuals (to improve/change/make less intrusive).
- Added spell: Fireball DoT (mage), .


r4
- Added support for PvP timers and diminishing returns.
- Added some missing spells: Frostbite (mage), Blackout (priest), Shadowfury (warlock).
- Extended the fade duration up to 15 sec to give a rough idea of when a diminishing return has reset.


r3
- Fixed a bug that was preventing users of AddonLoader to get the saved anchor position.
- Added a way to change scale: simply mousewheel over the purple window (due to how Blizzard implements scaling, you will have to move the window afterwards).
- Added class: Priest.


r2
- Added: stacking debuffs. (Im open for visual improvements.)
- Added: workaround(*) to handle refresh/dose until those events have proper source info. So this addon should now be usable in raid; with some restrictions: when the refresh/dose event occurs, the target must be one of target/focus/mouseover for the refresh to be handled.
- Changed: minor metatable improvements.
- Added: mage spells. (Alpha, not tested.)

(*)For those interested, here are the implementation details:

There's now an efficient way to retrieve informations about a specific player debuff without having to scan everything, but the spell name and rank must be provided. As I only retrieve name/rank info one time and cache it, if in the same session you start using another rank of the same spell that as the same base duration, refresh/dose won't be handled. It shouldn't be much of a problem since downranking is dead, and I hope that when we will XP in Northrend (and change spell in the same session), the refresh/dose events would provide sources informations.


r1
- Initial release.

Any chance this will be updated? Its absolutely the best dot timer I've had the pleasure of using.

With Corruption scaling with haste now the Corruption timer is off.
