oUF_Phanx is a PvE-oriented layout for oUF.

Features include aggro highlighting, dispel-prioritized debuff highlighting, incoming heal bars, resurrection status text, AFK timer text, filtered aura display, casting bars for player/pet/target, and more detailed health and power text on mouseover.

This layout includes frames for the player, pet, target, target’s target, focus, focus’s target, party members, party pets, arena enemies, and bosses. Raid frames will not be added; use Grid or another raid frame addon of your choice.

Plugin support is included for oUF_Smooth, oUF_boring_totembar, oUF_CombatFeedback, oUF_SpellRange, and any other plugin which does not require explicit support from within a layout. If you’d like to see support for a specific plugin, post a feature request with a link to the plugin’s download page.


Usage

Some basic options can be changed in the configuration panel. Find it in the Interface Options window or by typing “/pouf”.

A few additional options are available by editing the “oUF_Phanx.lua” file in your SavedVariables directory. Note that you must have logged in with the addon enabled, and then logged out or reloaded your UI, at least once before this file will appear. Also, you must log out before editing this file, or your changes will have no effect.

If you want to change something that doesn’t have an option to change, you will need to modify the layout’s code yourself, and I will not provide any support or assistance for this. If you need help modifying the code, post in the oUF forum on this site. Comments on this page asking for help with code modifications will be deleted.


Caveats

OmniCC is required for text timers on auras.


Aura Filter Notes

Aura filtering is defined for all classes. However, I don’t play every class, so the filter lists may be missing something, or include something unnecessary, for your class. If you think your class’s aura filter list should be changed, post a comment explaining what needs to be added or removed, and why.

Basically, my criteria for whether a buff or debuff should be shown are as follows:

Debuffs:

• You actively apply it... (feral druids don’t see Infected Wounds)
• ...but you don’t channel to maintain it... (warlocks don’t see Drain Life)
• ...or someone else cast it but it affects what you will cast (feral druids see Trauma from warriors).

Buffs:

• You actively apply it... (resto shamans don’t see Earthliving)
• ...and it doesn’t last very long... (priests don’t see Power Word: Fortitude)
• ...or it’s on you and directly affects your combat choices (everyone sees Bloodlust).

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I get an error when trying to set a focus unit?

This is a Blizzard issue that affects most unit frame addons. Until Blizzard fixes the underlying problem, you can set a focus unit by targetting the desired unit and typing “/focus”, or by binding a key to the focus action in the Blizzard keybindings UI.


Feature Requests

oUF_Phanx is primarily written to fill my own needs for PvE, and I will most likely not consider any requests for major changes or additions. If you’d like to suggest a minor change, or request support for a plugin, feel free to submit a feature request ticket.

If you encounter a problem with oUF_Phanx, submit a bug report with the following information:
