A few Know-It-All bars.
Know-It-All   Popular!
Know-It-All is a NECB clone using the Ace 3 framework. It displays combat timer bars that can track buffs, debuffs, CCs, temporary summons and protection effects and tells you how much time is left.

Know-It-All is still very early in development but quite stable. Many NECB features are implemented such as target and focus tracking, PvP sounds, limited DR tracking, etc.

Know-It-All can be configured from the interface menu or type /kia. See the FAQ.txt for more info.

Should be possible, I'll add it to my TODO list.

Wowhead lists them all as separate spell id's. Couldn't you just code it as different spells? I'm no coder, but I know a little bit about this.
That's what I was trying to say. My code only looks for the druid version of rake (I've double checked), that's why I'm pretty sure it's a bug on Blizzard's end.

You rock!

Mind adding support for stackable debuffs, like Fire Vulnerability and Winter's Chill?
Ah, I think I see what's wrong. Will be fixed in next version or you can pull the latest version from the SVN if it bother's you too much. Thanks for the report.

Those are two spells I'd like to see as well but the current state of the combat log makes it difficult. I think it will be fixed in 3.0.2 so I'll be releasing a new version asap.

Creating a table every SPELL_AURA_APPLIED if they are humans is generally bad, passing it as something like "destGUID:spellID" then string.splitting it in RemoveDR is better.

Same with SetDR(), if you move drMultiplier right above SetDR() you'll only create the table once instead of on every call.

For CheckForInstance() you should look into http://www.wowwiki.com/API_IsInInstance as thats a more accurate method then checking coords, you don't need to do a 5 second timer either. Personally I use a combination of ZONE_CHANGED_NEW_AREA + PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD, I can't recall if ZCNE fires after PEW when logging in/reloading, don't think so.

Good Luck!
Thanks for the tips. Been banging my head on the whole table thing and why memory goes through the roof. LUA does some wacky stuff. Got my memory usage down almost 20x so I'm pretty happy now.

I've also had time to play with it on the WotLK beta and have started to write some code for it. Big changes to the combat log system again which should make Know-It-All much more accurate but requires a bunch of changes to the code.

I started Know-It-All back when NECB looked dead and have been disappointed with the new one so far. A little competition never hurts.
True

Yes, it will track all stuns done to your target and those around you. There is currently no way to query how many combo points another rogue or druid has so Know It All will just show the lowest duration on KS and Maim.
